Release notes very difficult to see due to implementation of Add-ons dialog box #86

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. When you receive a notification from Firefox that there is a new version of 
the add-on, there is a "show information" button in the Firefox dialog box that 
should show the changelog or release notes.
2. When you click on the "show information" button, there is only a 
non-clickable, non-copyable link to the release notes.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I should see the actual release notes, or at least be able to click on the link 
to the release notes. Or failing that, I should at least be able to copy the 
link to see the release notes. As a result, if I want to see the release notes, 
I have to re-size my windows so I can see both the add-ons dialog box and a 
browser window, then type in the URL that I see in the add-ons box. This is 
ridiculous.

I realize that the inability to click or copy the link is a shortcoming in 
Firefox's add-ons dialog box, but you should put the changelog in there rather 
than just a link. It makes it much more difficult for use to see what changes.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Firecookie 1.1b8 in Firefox 3.6.13 on Windows XP SP3

Since Firecookie is now integrated into Firebug 1.10a11 this issue is obsolete.
Further changes to the Cookies panel will be mentioned at:
