System: Solaris 2.5; The browser was built with gcc 2.95.1 Start the browser with mozill-apprunner.sh 1. Edit -> Advanced -> Preferences 2. View Mannual Proxy Configuration 3. None of the text fields are editable. Buttons are not activated either
add matt@netscape.com since I think he's worked on the prefs dialogs. Matt--have you completed your work on this dialog? There doesn't seem to be any JS attached to the xul. sujay: reproduce by-- 1) go to Edit menu and pick Preferences 2) click on Proxies (below Advanced) 3) click on the radio button for "manual" 4) click on the View... button next to the manual radio button

No this is not finished yet. The buttons need to be hooked up to the js. The text field problem has to do with dialogs not working right now.

matt says this is a generic dialog problem. Dan M?

Summary: The manual proxy configuration is not available → losing events to nonmodal dialogs on top of modal dialogs
Target Milestone: M13
This looks like a platform-specific problem with the way we're handling events for modal dialogs. gtk and the Mac appear to be losing events to a non-modal dialog on top of a modal dialog. This problem will appear to go away when we make the prefs dialog non-modal; a project which is underway already. In the meantime, as a workaround, you can easily make the "View" dialog modal. Still, a basic problem remains. I'm adjusting the bug description and scheduling for M13, though I may have to pull it in closer.

*** Bug 24663 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Same bug as 19221. Marking this one a dupe of that one because the steps to reproduce mentioned in this bug no longer cause a problem (the prefs dialog is no longer modal and the proxies pane has been redesigned.) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 19221 ***
