build id 1999042908, windows nt: if you select file | open you get a file selection control. however, you are still able to switch back to the spawning window and do something there (like load a new page). the file selection control should be modal - you should not be able to do anything with its spawning window.

Dan, once the modality stuff works, re-assign this back to Bill.

Now why did Don put this one in my safekeeping if he wanted it to go to Bill in the first place? Hey Bill -- Sorry to surprise you with this one. The code looks to me as if you or one of any of fifty other people who wrote nsFileSpecWithUIImpl just never made the file selection window modal.
