Some web pages not showing up right
several times I have noticed that a web page will not display on SeaMonkey1.1.17 but it is a good looking web page on Mozilla Firefox and the virus magnet MicroBsoft IE.

I strongly suspect that SeaMonkey is not broken and therefore requires no fix. The page has 50 XHTML errors and 3 CSS errors. Until those errors are corrected, you should suspect them to be the cause of your problem. Do what I did when I saw a similar problem with a different California state agency. I determined who was the head of the department over that agency and sent him a letter (postal, not E-mail). In the letter, I cited the URI and that the Web page could not be viewed properly by my browser. I mentioned that the page might thus not be viewable with audio browsers used by the visually handicapped, a violation of California's Government Code ยง11135(d)(2). My letter got results in less than two weeks. Note that I tried viewing your URI while spoofing Firefox 2 and Firefox 3. Neither attempt resulted in an improvement in how the page was rendered. -- David E.

I Am running SM 1.1.17 TIA for your assistance... Bo1953 That *.slt should be the folder which contains your profile, where the mail and bookmarks, etc., are kept. On a default install, it's also where the cache folder is for the browser page downloads (images, scripts, etc.) You've most likely got a large collection of emails and/or web page cache info. If you've thrown emails out, they've been marked as 'gone' so you don't see them in the GUI any longer, but the original raw text may still be in the files where mail is stored. Open your mail window, right-click on each folder listed and select 'Compact this folder'. If there're any lingering, hidden message texts, that should clear them out, one folder at a time. To clear the cache (assuming no plugins): from either mail or browser windows, go to Edit - Preferences - Advanced and you'll see the 'Cache' item. Set max size, location, etc., and do a manual flush with 'Clear Cache'. After all that, see how much space you've recovered from your *.slt 'file'. If you change the location of the cache directory, then clear the cache, will that clear the cached files at the original location? Perhaps the OP should clear the cache first, then select a better location (if a better location is in fact desired)? No the default cache won't clear, if the OP changes his location. The whole idea was to see whether that was helping to cause his large disk displacement. If he changes it, then the old default location will have to be cleared by navigating to that folder and deleting everything by hand. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Clicking on the Address header reverse the order to Z - A, but no other order is possible. SeaMonkey 1.1.17 on Win Vista. Yes that window is always the same. You have start typing an address into the compose window which has the letter of several possibly matching addressbook-entries. SM will suggest several adresses/contacts then.

It displays nicely in SeaMonkey 2.0b1pre FireFox 3.5, is totally wacked in 1.1.17, a little flat but ok in Opera, and nicely in Epiphany (Gnome Web Browser 2.26.1 which uses gecko-1.9 - see http://projects.gnome.org/epiphany/). So I reckon that 1.1.17 is broken recall a bug to this effect but can't put my finger on it just now.

Where are bookmarks, mail etc in Vista?
Hi guys, my hard drive was changed and the tech put all my old data on another drive. Now I'm trying to find my Seamonkey profile but searching for *.slt is not bringing anything up. I don't have any of these directories as per the FAQ (mainly because Vista isn't mentioned): Windows 98/98SE/Me If password protection is disabled: C:\Windows\Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles\profile name\*.slt If password protection is enabled: C:\Windows\Profiles\%USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles \profilename\*.slt\ Windows NT 4.0 C:\Winnt\Profiles\%USERPROFILE%\Application Data \Mozilla\Profiles\profile name\*.slt Windows 2000 Windows XP C:\Documents and Settings\%USERPROFILE% \Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles\profile name\ I have prog files/mozilla/seamonkey but what I'm looking for isn't there. What extensions should I search for to find my mail, newsgroup, password and bookmark files? Thanks in advance for advice so I can get everything working again.

Well in this respect SeaMonkey should work the same way as Mozilla Suite. So just use the same method you used in the old suite. Phil From memory (it was a long time ago, now), it used to be quite simple; it used to be able to be done, simply, using one of two methods; clicking on the Search button to the right of the URL text box, with the non-dominant mouse button, which would list the search engines available to use with that button, the list, at the bottom, including an option Add new search engine, which would lead to a dialogue box, into which the user would enter the URL for the search engine (eg, www.yahoo.com, or, www.altavista.com), or, using the menu route; Edit - Preferences - Navigator - Internet Search, which then had the option Add new search engine, which then went through the procedure describd above, from that point, and then, after whichever procedure was used, the extra search engine(s) would be added to the options for the search engines to be used by the browser, and, thence, one of those search engines could be made the new deault search engine. That, from memory, is how it used to be able to be done, with both ways of doing it, being available to the user, but, over the years, with changes to the software, and, the renaming (Netscape - Mozilla - Seamonkey/Firefox), that facility appears to have got lost in the process, and, the software less easy to use, so that, now, it appears, for a user to do what used to be simple, like adding extra search engines, and, changing the deafult search engine, the user has to do coding to achieve what the software used to do for the user. -- Bret Busby Armadale West Australia ..
