SM 1.1.12 on MandrivaLinux 2007.0 on Dial-up

Yesterday, I was checking out one of my UseNet server groups, 
decided I needed to make a 'phone call, so hung up my Internet 
connection.


Moments later, I decided that I needed to reply to the message 
that I was reading (forgetting that I was off-line) so clicked 
"Reply".


The screen opened with the header info (group name and thread 
name) and even showed whom I was replying to, but did not quote 
any of the thread to which I was responding.


Why?? I'm guessing that this means that SM was supposed to go to 
the world, re-download the message and re-format if for my reply, 
but WHY??


I've already downloaded the message, so why cannot SM just go to 
the Cache to get the info, why does it have to re-download the 
message??


Do other News readers also show this behavior??

Daniel


you're not viewing the message on your computer. You've viewing it 
on the server.  Therefore, when you go offline, the message isn't 
there on your computer, because you haven't downloaded anything.



Is it the same for thunderbird?


SeaMonkey is about the same as a Firefox and Thunderbird combo.



Peter, when I look at a web-site, I'm not really looking at the 
web-site, the various bits and pieces are downloaded, from a 
web-server somewhere, onto my computer (cache) and then it is 
displayed for me.


I would have thought that the messages in a newsgroup were downloaded 
from the server, via cache, for me to view it in the first instant. 
When I'm viewing a message, I don't have a permanent connection to 
the message as it is stored on the server, the info comes from the 
server, into my computer RAM, cache, etc., so why should I have to 
re-connect to the server and re-download the message, when it's still 
in my computer, somewhere??


Daniel


as I said, its because the messages are stored "on the server".  
You're viewing them "on the server." Email/News do not have a cache.  
If you want them to be on your computer, then you must download them 
first. Look under Offline & Disk Space under the account settings.  
Its at the very, very top of that window is what you want.




You're joking!! I would have thought they *MUST* be cached somewhere!!

Daniel


well, if you think its cached somewhere, then you go 
look for it, and let us all know when you find it. :-)

I'm setting up a new XP Pro computer. Foxit Reader is set as my 
default pdf reader, and set to open outside the browser. IE 7 uses 
Foxit Reader for opening pdf files, but Seamonkey 1.1.14 uses 
Adobe Reader. In Seamonkey's Preferences|Navigator|Helper 
applications, I've set the PDF helper to use Foxit, but Adobe 
Reader still opens; setting it to use the Default application 
still brings up Adobe Reader.


There is something odd: when SM opens Adobe Reader outside the 
browser, Adobe seems to work fine. But, the window that had the 
pdf link in SM monkey isn't refreshing properly: whatever opens or 
is dragged across it leaves a trail of images. Using the "back" 
button will return to the page the link was on, and the display 
acts properly.


Seamonkey is using a profile from my previous XP Home computer. 
Everything else seems to work well. The old computer and the new 
one have the same preference settings (it's on the next desk, so 
it's easy to check).
I "fixed" it by removing Adobe Reader from my machine. Now Foxit 
opens instead, and all is well. If I need Adobe Reader, I'll try 
installing it again and hope it works properly; frankly, I'm so 
pleased with Foxit (love it's commenting and markup tools), I 
probably won't want or need it.


Try the following:

1.  Remove both Foxit and Adobe Reader.

2.  Install Adobe Reader.

3.  Install Foxit.

I had a similar problem involving Adobe Reader and Acrobat (the 
writer).

 The writer was being used by Mozilla instead of the reader (way back
before SeaMonkey and when Adobe Reader was called Acrobat Reader).  I
found that the sequence in which they were installed made a big
difference.


I did install Foxit first when I got the computer, so perhaps that 
caused the problem. I hope I remember this if I have to install Adobe :)


Is Foxit a pdf writer as well as a reader??


They do have a writer, but Foxit Reader isn't it; however, the 
commenting and markup tools are enabled, along with image capture, 
drawing, measuring, and dimensioning tools. Also some others I haven't 
tried to use yet. I find it a very easy way to annotate images and 
documents. It adds an unobtrusive "evaluation mark" when you save the 
document with your comments and markings. The paid version doesn't add 
the evaluation mark, of course, but I'm not using it for business, so 
the free version is great - 5 mb download, fast opening, good reviews in 
the PC magazines.

Tks for that.

Before you can read newsgroup messages while off line, you must first

No, I'm not wanting to read them off-line (which I have done before). 
I'm on-line when I read the message, so there is a copy of it in my

There is something odd: when SM opens Adobe Reader outside the 
browser, Adobe seems to work fine. But, the window that had the pdf 
link in SM monkey isn't refreshing properly: whatever opens or is 
dragged across it leaves a trail of images. Using the "back" button 
will return to the page the link was on, and the display acts 
properly.


Seamonkey is using a profile from my previous XP Home computer. 
Everything else seems to work well. The old computer and the new 
one have the same preference settings (it's on the next desk, so 
it's easy to check).
I "fixed" it by removing Adobe Reader from my machine. Now Foxit 
opens instead, and all is well. If I need Adobe Reader, I'll try 
installing it again and hope it works properly; frankly, I'm so 
pleased with Foxit (love it's commenting and markup tools), I 
probably won't want or need it.


Try the following:

1.  Remove both Foxit and Adobe Reader.

2.  Install Adobe Reader.

3.  Install Foxit.

I had a similar problem involving Adobe Reader and Acrobat (the writer).
 The writer was being used by Mozilla instead of the reader (way back
before SeaMonkey and when Adobe Reader was called Acrobat Reader).  I
found that the sequence in which they were installed made a big
difference.


I did install Foxit first when I got the computer, so perhaps that 
caused the problem. I hope I remember this if I have to install Adobe :)


Is Foxit a pdf writer as well as a reader??


They do have a writer, but Foxit Reader isn't it; however, the 
commenting and markup tools are enabled, along with image capture, 
drawing, measuring, and dimensioning tools. Also some others I haven't 
tried to use yet. I find it a very easy way to annotate images and 
documents. It adds an unobtrusive "evaluation mark" when you save the 
document with your comments and markings. The paid version doesn't add 
the evaluation mark, of course, but I'm not using it for business, so 
the free version is great - 5 mb download, fast opening, good reviews in 
the PC magazines.

Re: SeaMonkey 2 with better toolkit?

I have seen how Mozilla started out and now been renamed to SeaMonkey,
one of the bad things that has happen is the adoption of the gtk2
toolkit


We've never really used GTK or Qt, and we're not planning to. We're just 
mimicing the look of GTK2 with our widgets but not really using GTK(2) 
widgets, only hooking into some of the backends of it.

 From previous posts, I started using the text below in my 
userContent.css file, and it works a treat for mail & newsgroups:


block quoting is different than what the OP wants.  He wants the folders 
colored, and what you have displayed is for the contents of messages to 
be colored, and the various threads within that message/posting



After some tries, here is the content of my Userchrome.css.

It integrates the tip from Peter about the Throbber. Feel free to 
experiment with this ... and improve!

SM 1.1.12 on MandrivaLinux 2007.0 on Dial-up

Yesterday, I was checking out one of my UseNet server groups, 
decided I needed to make a 'phone call, so hung up my Internet 
connection.


Moments later, I decided that I needed to reply to the message that 
I was reading (forgetting that I was off-line) so clicked "Reply".


The screen opened with the header info (group name and thread name) 
and even showed whom I was replying to, but did not quote any of 
the thread to which I was responding.


Why?? I'm guessing that this means that SM was supposed to go to 
the world, re-download the message and re-format if for my reply, 
but WHY??


I've already downloaded the message, so why cannot SM just go to 
the Cache to get the info, why does it have to re-download the 
message??


Do other News readers also show this behavior??

Daniel


you're not viewing the message on your computer. You've viewing it 
on the server.  Therefore, when you go offline, the message isn't 
there on your computer, because you haven't downloaded anything.



Is it the same for thunderbird?


SeaMonkey is about the same as a Firefox and Thunderbird combo.



Peter, when I look at a web-site, I'm not really looking at the 
web-site, the various bits and pieces are downloaded, from a web-server 
somewhere, onto my computer (cache) and then it is displayed for me.


I would have thought that the messages in a newsgroup were downloaded 
from the server, via cache, for me to view it in the first instant. When 
I'm viewing a message, I don't have a permanent connection to the 
message as it is stored on the server, the info comes from the server, 
into my computer RAM, cache, etc., so why should I have to re-connect to 
the server and re-download the message, when it's still in my computer, 
somewhere??


Before you can read newsgroup messages while off line, you must first 
select them for downloading. Have you done that?
