1) Launch Apprunner on Mac. 2) Choose File-New-Address Book Card menu item 3) The new address book card dialog appears, the first item in the dialog is an html:select that does not allow you to modify the selection between the two address books. Note: if for some reason you do not have two address books, add one from the Address Book window. Open the address book from the tasks menu, select New Address Book from the File menu. This bug has been around for a while but was logged because I thought the zombie window bug covered this too.

This is not an xptoolkit widget. reassigning.

Reassigning to Kevin.

Tried on WIN32 Oct 5, 1999, 6:00PM build and it works. Must be a Mac specific issue. Don, reassigning to you.

Yes, this is Mac only. I have been using select on Windows just fine, but with Mac I am unable to choose a different option in the select. The list of options does not even leave the screen after I let go of the mouse button.

Marking as Dogfood.

This bug also affects setting up new accounts (IMAP) on Mac which uses this control (see duplicate bug) - users are unable to do so. Per brade's request, I'm ccing her on this bug.

Putting on PDT+ radar

Update summary: Linux too

*** Bug 16371 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

can we get some traction on this bug? this is now blocking you from being able to create new accounts or setup mail for the first time.

*** Bug 16382 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

On the Mac, the events are not getting through to the message-pump for the popup, so a select will not happen.. only when a dialog is used. The combo box and HTML select works in a normal window but not on a dialog. Giving this to the DanM since he knows about this and is looking for the answer...

you can work around this bug with the arrow keys, so there is a way to get something done. click on the select widget, and then up or down arrow through the choices.

adding alecf to the cc list, as he was asking about this bug.

aha! Is this a dupe of a bug I just found, #14131?

bug 14131 is for Linux. Doesn't matter which one you mark as a dup. If you close this as a dup, need to make sure other bug has the right platform marked, dogfood, etc. Thanks.

I tried the workaround of using the up and down arrow keys for selecting the IMAP option in the Account Wizard. It looked like it was taken but I checked in Account Settings and it actually saved it as POP. This also effects the Copies and Folders select boxes. For instance I can choose the "Sent" folder for the "Place a copy in" option. After pressing OK and opening Account Settings again I notice that the changes were not saved. Even after closing and opening the application.

The workaround w/ the arrow keys apparently no longer works. Since this is the case, can we get this for M11?

P1 for M12.

Probably a duplicate of 14131 (or at least, it should be fixed when that one is fixed.) Linking them and leaving both open for now, since they have different, interesting test cases.

QA Assigning to self for verification in cpratt's absence. Verification blocked until 14131 is resolved/fixed. (It's been re-opened.)

Verified fixed/duplicate using 1999112408 builds on Win NT 4.0 SP5 and RH Linux 6.0/GNOME, with 1999112410 build on Mac OS 8.6. Also verified 16371, to be sure. (Finally, also attempted to also verify duplicate bug 15895, but the UI no longer uses a combo box.)

Note: This bug was marked a duplicate of 14131 (which has now been fixed and verified) but the original scenario for this bug (for Address book New Card Dialog) is still a problem, but is now on all platforms. I will log a new bug since this bug has other scenarios included.

...it must have regressed since 11.24.99, as I most definitely checked the scenario in question on all platforms!
