From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; m16) Gecko/20000520 BuildID: 2000052020 If you bring up a "Unknown File Type" prompt then select "Save File..." this brings up a "Save File" prompt but the "Unknown File Type" prompt still remains. If you hit "Cancel" in the "Save File" prompt then the "Save File" prompt disappears but the "Unknown File Type" prompt remains. In Netscape 4.73, the "Unknown File Type" prompt disappears as soon as "Save File" button is selected. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Go to http://mozilla.org 2.Click on one of links to a Milestone build or a Nightly build 3.This should bring up an "Unknown File Type" prompt, click on "Save File..." 4.This should bring up a "Save File" or "Save As" prompt, click "Cancel" Actual Results: The "Save File" or "Save As" prompt disappears but the "Unknown File Type" remains. Expected Results: Both "Save File" and the "Unknown File Type" prompts should have disappeared as in Netscape 4.73
confirming this still happens with the 2000060315 nightly build

*** Bug 40555 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Rather than call it a WONTFIX, why not mark it as dependent on bug 28584?
Mainly because doing that wouldn't get it out of my hair.
Since Dan is worried about this bug...
