The original design for the Mixed Content Blocker can be found here http://people.mozilla.com/~lco/ProjectSPF/Mixed_Content/Mixed_Content_Spec/. There has been some discussion about: * the "More Info" button * one-tone vs two-tone styling * text * Choices at the bottom of the doorhanger (Keep Blocking, Disable protection on this page, Not Now) Opening this bug to continue the discussion. I cloned bug 822371, so please remove yourself from the cc if you are not interested in this bug. Thanks!

With regards to the text, I've placed some suggestions for discussion at https://firefox-ux.etherpad.mozilla.org/MixedContent-messages I'll ping Matej and see if he can help us come up with something we can be happy with.

I just worry that more choices will confuse the user. When the choice is a dichotomy between "continue blocking" and "disable protection", it's easier to make that choice.

Can we find a way for the doorhanger to persist if the user selects "Not Now"? Right now, if the user selects "Not Now" the doorhanger disappears and the user can't change their mind later (and hence "Not Now" is equivalent to "Keep Blocking"). If this is a simple code change, I am happy to make it, but need some guidance on how to do it. Thanks!

PopupNotifications default behavior is to stay "dismissed" (collapsed, but re-openable from the location bar icon) after choosing "Not Now". Since you don't specify removeOnDismissal or an eventCallback in the call to PopupNotifications.show(), I don't understand why it would be disappearing after choosing "not now".

I just clicked "Not Now" on 23.0a1 (2013-04-11) from https://air.mozilla.org/poetic-apis/ and the icon goes away from the location bar. This is different than what was mentioned in the blog post: "If a user decides to “Keep Blocking” or selects “Not Now”, the notification in the location bar will disappear:" https://blog.mozilla.org/tanvi/2013/04/10/mixed-content-blocking-enabled-in-firefox-23/

Not sure when that changed; perhaps with another patch to PopupNotifications, since I probably haven't tested the "Not Now" functionality in a while. I will update the blog post.

See also bug 862201 -- the icon disappears after clicking "Keep Blocking".

I think we can close this bug or mark is as a duplicate of bug 834828.
