Mozilla Skins version 1.2

Kam-Yung Soh writes: "Mozilla's skin version has been updated to 1.2. This may cause older skins, plugins and themes to break." Recent changes in the trunk make older skins incompatible with current builds. Theme developers, start updating!

Anyone know what's been updated with the skin change to 1.2?

Anybody know why and what they changed?

Well, I know that 3 new files were added for messenger and this pretty much broke skins completely. I guess they decided to upgrade the version number so that Mozilla complains when switching to an older theme instead of crashing when you start up Mail/News with an erroneous theme. The files in question are

messenger/folderPaneExtras.css
messenger/threadPaneExtras.css
messenger/messageKeywords.css

Just adding these files to existing themes would make it work before. Now even this won't work because of the version change.

Patrik, exactly what do you mean with "added for messenger"? I completelly missed that.

I think by "Messenger" he meant the Mozilla Mail client.

Updated versions of Orbit * are on freshmeat

Alternatively, adding the dummy stylesheets as above and changing skinVersion="1.0" to skinVersion="1.2" in contents.rdf will work
