From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.73 [en] (WinNT; I) BuildID: 2000101014 I tried to insert a unnumbered bullet and after inserting it I reopened the List Properties dialog and selected none under List type and clicked on the OK button, List properties dialog remains on the screen. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open New Composer window. 2. Select Format->List->List properties 3. Select Bullet(Unnumbered) List as List Type and Solid circle as Bullet Style. 4. Click on OK button. 5. Again Select Format->List->List Properties 6. Now Select None under List Type 7. Click on OK button. Actual Results: List Properties dialog remains on the screen Expected Results: It should disappear from the screen and the solid circle in the composer window should go off.
following steps to repro i get this error in console with linux sea build 20001114 JavaScript error: line 0: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004003 (NS_ERROR_INVALID_POINTER) [nsIEditorShell.GetElementOrParentByTagName]" nsresult: "0x80004003 (NS_ERROR_INVALID_POINTER)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://editor/content/EdListProps.js :: onOK :: line 333" data: no] After this, the dialog-box became a "ghost" - flat blue and outlined but no content, and composer editing area froze. Menuline was still intact and i could close composer. Resolving as new, OS: All.

charlie, can you look into why GetElementOrParentByTagName() is failing?

Attached patch Fix for bug (deleted) — Splinter Review
I had a zombie List Properties dialog box when trying to make a list item no longer a list. The window could be dragged around, leaving a trail of edges everywhere. The program continued to work, including with the cursor in the middle of the box and its trails. A demo of the bug is contained within: http://gair.firstpr.com.au/public-files/mozilla-bugs/mb-comp-space-3.html This is with a nightly build, Win98, 2000112908. It happened every time I tried.
We can now remove a list from the List Properties dialog (that what was causing the described behavior.)
