if you follow a bad link, there is a message in the status bar that reads
'Unable to locate host .'
The problem is the space just before the period - it shouldn't be there.

I'm not the owner of navigator.xul. In the future, give bugs related to
changes in navigator.xul to don.
Thanks.

Hi there,
Looks like ZuperDee of Penguin Land just detected another bug like bug 3839, and
thought he might try to help--he **LOVES** fixing spelling errors like this!!
First of all, this has **NOTHING** to do with navigator.xul, just so you
know... So even don would probably be the wrong person for this.
Unfortunately, this "spelling error" might be harder to fix than you think...
Doing a 'grep' on the whole tree revealed this:
[root@localhost mozilla]# grep -r "Unable to locate host ." *
include/allxpstr.h:ResDef(XP_PROGRESS_UNABLELOCATE, XP_MSG_BASE+43,
"Unable to locate host %.256s.")
include/allxpstr.h:ResDef(XP_PROGRESS_5, XP_MSG_BASE+44,
"Unable to locate host %.256s.")
include/allxpstr.rc:ResDef(XP_PROGRESS_UNABLELOCATE, XP_MSG_BASE+43,
"Unable to locate host %.256s.")
include/allxpstr.rc:ResDef(XP_PROGRESS_5, XP_MSG_BASE+44,
"Unable to locate host %.256s.")
Those are the only places I could find this string... And in these instances,
it looks to me like if 'foo' isn't found (for example), then it is supposed to
say something to the effect of "Unable to locate host foo." I think therefore
that you either had a hostname of NULL when you saw that message (and if so, I'd
like to know when you could possibly have that situation), or you have
encountered buggy code that is not displaying the hostname where it should for
some reason. Does somebody want to look at this and tell me if I'm completely
off base here??
This actually does not do this anymore.
You get an loading error instead.
Bill can you close this out unless you are going to implement this?
That message originates in the networking library, I suspect. Those status
messages were still not being passed to the browser, last I checked. Anyway,
I'll determine what the deal is and close/re-assign as necessary.

This bug is irrelevant at the moment because we aren't getting status
notifications from netlib. In any case, the message text comes from there so
I'm reassigning it (changing the component).
I think I might have a dup for sending status bar messages. Rick do you have it?

looks like this got slipped. but status messages should be working fine now and
be spelling error free!

I no longer see this status message at all - if I go to a host that's
down/offline, I just see "Document: Done". So... I guess this is fixed. Marking
verified.
