Bug Description

In Firefox 20, I had no issue bookmarking websites by dragging the icon that's left of the url (from the address bar) onto the Bookmarks tool (View > Toolbars > Bookmarks Toolbar)

Recently, Ubuntu's Update Manager updated me to Firefox 21, and I no longer have the ability to bookmark in this preferred way.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time. Your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates.

It would help us a lot if you could test on a currently supported Ubuntu version. When you test it and it is still an issue, kindly upload the updated logs by running only once in a terminal:

apport-collect 1181444

and add any additional information that you think relevant. Alternatively, please confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the report. If we do not hear from you the bug report will close itself in approximately two months time.

Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu better.
