OK, I've looked on Google and Bugzilla for this one, too, and didn't find anything. I'm using 0.9.6 on Win95 OSR2.
When I open the History window (having it take over part of the browser window is an IE-copycat abomination, of course), and change the view (I hate the IE-derived Grouped view), in Mozilla 0.9.3, this would be saved so that the next time I opened the history window, it would have the same layout as I left it in. But it always opens to the stupid grouped view (which I hate). And when I do get to the ungrouped view (a tabular view, like the Windows Explorer Details view), and try to sort, it takes 3 clicks of the LAST VISITED header to get it sorted right. The first click does nothing noticeable, other than changing the top item in the list to the very last page visited (and the /\ triangle disappears). The second click sorts in date ascending order (i.e., earliest at top of list) and the third click finally gets me to last at top. Something seems to be wrong with the updating of the grid. When I then click the Last Visited header again, it changes the first item to the last item (i.e., the earliest) but leaves everything else the same. In other words, it cycles through almost the same set of 3 views described above (only two of which have any use). I suspect something is screwed up here with the basic widget, but couldn't figure out what to look for in the bug lists. Can anyone else reproduce this? The problem with the loss of your view settings was definitely *not* there in 0.9.3, though I can't say for sure if the sorting problem was there or not, as once I had it sorted correctly, the setting remained and I may never have noticed it. It's pretty annoying, in general. -- David W. Fenton http://www.bway.net/~dfenton dfenton at bway dot net http://www.bway.net/~dfassoc
