The Download Notification alert is a bit confusing, when I see that its underlinded I expect it to do something when I click on it. Nothing happends though. For example, I am downloading several files, to different locations. When a download is done, I get this notification and clicking on it should take me to the files location. But now nothing happends. Using 20031218 0.8 branch build.

As per the comment at http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/toolkit/components/downloads/src/nsDownloadManager.cpp#2042 the alert is clickable only when the DM is not automatically cleared. The underline appears, but clicking it does nothing. Confirming Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.6b) Gecko/20031216 Firebird/0.7+

A problem is that downloading sometimes reports a successful complete even if only a portion was downloaded. When i donwload a 3000 k file and its only 789k it is not complete. Firefox shall get that is was an unsuccessful download.

The target is Firefox1.0beta, so this doesn't block Firefox 0.9.

Ben, what's the expected behavior here? I assume it's to open the Downloads window. Once you clarify that, I'll try and fix this.

The download manager is supposed to display when you click the link. I can't think of any other behaviour that makes sense.

I can't think of any other behaviour that makes sense. 3 of the duplicate bugs ( that's all I've checked) have assumed it would go to the downloaded file in windows explorer/file manager, not the download manager. Perhaps an option to say - go to download manager, or go to last downloaded file location? Two clicks in both cases: - one to downlaod manager, then another to open the download. versus - one click to go to the enclosing directory. Another to open the download. I don't always want to open straight away. I want to go to the enclosing folder to scan it, or see other things I've downloaded in there at the same time. My 2c worth.

Mark, I believe it would make better sense to make the link open the Download Manager, simply because of the fact that if one downloads several files concurrently, it would be better to handpick which file is to be opened, which is done easily through the manager. Of course, I'm only talking about Firefox's default behaviour. Besides, I think (not sure on this) the alert only pops up when all the current files have been downloaded, and making Firefox launch all the "recent" downloads at once just doesn't sound very usable (just imagining several separate sessions of a huge program such as Photoshop is scary for the average PC, or worse, a program which doesn't allow multiple instances could go haywire and crash). Your suggestion on selecting the default behaviour for the link should probably become an extension, to allow Power Users to tweak such a thing.

Cool - so default is download manager, and then if you get time to do it, you can do the customisation option - fine with that!

Ah, sorry, I created that last duplicate... Anyways, what I have said there and haven't seen mentioned here: When it opens/focuses the download manager, it should select the finished download the popup was about... p.s. opening the download location is weird, if you ask me :). I hope you won't implement that behaviour. From within the download manager, it is a single click on 'show' to open the file location, easy enough, and it offers other handy functionality (such as open/run) as well. It will also make the download manager easier to find for people not accustomed to it (such as 'dummy' users moving from IE). About adding an option for different behaviour, I don't know if that is desireable, it sounds an awful lot like the Mozilla-the-Suite 'add every possible option' policy... p.s.2. I'm glad to see this is a blocking1.0 :). ~Grauw

- make sure nsDownloadManager implements QI magic for nsIAlertListener so that the QI in the alert prompt dialog will actually succeed!

fixed br & trunk.

Oh sure, steal my thunder.

Something similar is happening to me in Linux (Linux Mint 16 Mate). When i click on the "Download" icon to see the donload progress, nothing is shown. I see a flash of a window for a milisecond, as if the download manager tries to open, but it doesn't work.
