Details

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:0.9.5+) Gecko/20011010 BuildID: 2001101003 This is similar to bug 57228. The gist is, you can drag and drop a link from bookmark manager or an url to the Location bar. Right now, it inserts the text at the drop location. While I'm happy that this works at all, it would make a heck of a lot more sense if the drop would just replace the text in the location bar. Then you can just hit go. Right now, if you have an url already in your location bar, it'll just insert another url and you'll end up with a monstrosity (franken-url, if you will) that doesn't do any good. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.go somewhere 2.drag a link from a hyperlink or bookmark manager or your personal toolbar folder to the location bar Actual Results: The link location is inserted into the currently present text in the location bar. Expected Results: The new link location should replace the text in the location bar.

I beg to differ. 57228 is about dragging a text selection. This is about dragging an url, bookmark, or other link (these are not text selections). If you want to roll these into one bug, I can do so, but they are not now the same bug.

They are the same; they're implemented in the same fashion. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 57228 ***
