can't drag images inside an <a href> on linux. 4.7 can. also, would it be reasonable to have non-<a href> images dragable? 4.7 does not do this, but it might be nice to drag them on to the desktop to save, or into a word processor. maybe draging with a hotkey held down?

I'm not sure I understand exactly what you're asking for here, could you be more specific? Is there something you can drag on other platforms that is broken on Linux? The second part of your report (everything from the 'also' on) should be filed as one or more separate bugs. XPToolkit would need to add some support for creating files from the content when dragging to the desktop. However, I doubt we would have time in this release.

ok, lemme re-describe, scratch that first one. --- Mozilla needs to be able to DnD images. --- Today's linux build, and netscape 4.7 for linux can not. IE5 can, it it's quite handy. Draging an image from one IE to another open's the image directly in the new window. Draging an image from IE to explorer, or the desktop, saves it there. Leaving this as OS: Linux, but I think this applies to all OSes. Will test win32 tomarrow.

reassigning to brade, per pink

this worked for me last week; is it only broken on Linux or has there been a recent regression?

Yes, this does work now. Opened bug 41405 on the second RFE issue.

verified fixed, per reporter's comments
