Re: Displaying Bookmarks As an HTML File

Sadly I do not personally have the time, nor do I know enough about the Places format to write it myself, but I am told by those who do know more about it that doing this type of interfacing is quite easy. -- ~Justin Wood (Callek) ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

I have a password for a financial site, where the login has the user ID on one page and the password on the next page. This worked okay with SM 2.0.14. With SM 2.1RC1, it does not work.

Address Area Color
Long ago, I set the following into the chrome folder in my profile:
/* Make address area pink instead of yellow when page is secure */
#urlbar[level=high] .autocomplete-textbox-container,
#urlbar[level=low] .autocomplete-textbox-container
{background-color: #FFD0F0 !important}
This was because the default pale yellow did not stand out sufficiently.
It worked quite well through SM 2.0.14, but it does not work with SM
2.1RC1. What do I need to change?

Technique 4 replacing an older Mac version of SM...
I have a Mac, with OS 10.6.7, use SM v. 1.1.18 for communicating and a little internet visiting. Up until yesterday, that is. I fell for an offer to use a pop-up 3rd party Mac cleaner-upperer and it screwed up my slow but still working SM 1.1.18. In the process, it 'cleaned up' stuff from my SM folder(s) that were essential to proper operation. For instance, If I'm in Mail Newsgroups, I cannot access Navigator from menu bar's Window/Navigator. When pressed, the Navigator button does nothing. It's not hooked up. However, if I press Apple/Restart, I get a small window that says: Reference Error: inforssHeadline Display is not defined. I click on that warning window's Restart and the Mail window appears. It's obvious some thing critical had been removed/deleted and it crippled my SM. I happen to LIKE SM 1.1.18, and would like to keep it for a while. I have SM v. 2.0.13 on tap, and have used it, but...I'd like to stay with my older version for a while. Should I choose to go to 1.1.19, is there a way I can UPGRADE my 1.1.18, instead of downloading the full version and setting it up as tho' it was totally new to me, which means I'd have to find ways to move a lot of messages, bookmarks, etc., etc over. The only choice I see at the moment is to bite the bullet, download the big version and pretend I've never had a SM to use. Note: I DO have a month old copy of SM 1.1.18 on a Time Machine backup. I suppose that would be acceptable, but having never done it, I don't know how complicated that might be, getting it to REPLACE the old version...

I have no experience with Seamonkey on Macs, but: In my experience, and from everything I know about how every Mozilla product dating back to Netscape 1.0 works, reinstalling the product over the existing copy should *not* change your settings in any way, nor it should affect your profiles (so your saved mails should still be available and such). So, all you have to do is install 1.1.18 (or 1.1.19) normally. It should upgrade your existing copy of Seamonkey with fresh files and, theoretically (if missing files are actually the problem) solve your problem. If you want to be safe, backup your profile first. Also, regarding that Time Machine backup... if you don't know what you are doing, there's some risk of overwriting your profile files with an older version. You really don't want to have your mail folders replaced with a month-old version -- you would lose all messages you received since then. Time machine is a great tool, but you have to know what you are restoring. Restoring program files is usually OK, restoring user files should be done with extreme caution. And... think seriously about moving to Seamonkey 2.x. The 1.x branch has a number of known issues, including security issues, which are NOT going to be fixed. It's a dead branch. In a few days, with the official launch of SM 2.1, it will be *two* branches old. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.

Have one idea ? Well, this is exactly my setup -- Seamonkey 2.0.14 with Avast 6. I have had *no* problems at all with it. So I wouldn't think it's an incompatibility problem. However, there might be some reason why Avast is blocking Seamonkey. You could have a virus or other piece of malware infecting Seamonkey, for instance. Perhaps some sort of browser hijacker set Seamonkey to route all trafic through a malicious proxy server -- and Avast is blocking the server. Go to Edit/Preferences/Advanced/Proxy and check the settings. Unless your ADSL provider instructed you otherwise, it should be set to Direct connection to the Internet. Also, check that Avast has the latest definition updates and run a full system scan. After that, run ANOTHER scan with a DIFFERENT product -- I have had good results with Malwarebytes; it tends to find stuff antivirus don't. The available free online scans offered by various major-name antivirus sellers, like TrendMicro HouseCall, are good choices too. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.
