Details

I just got a native error dialog, by editing my prefs.js file so that it was malformed (commented a line out with a #). The native error dialog was missing the normal note, warning or stop icon.
Umm I what does this dialog say? The only native dialog I know of says is the one checking for 8.6
It tells me about the JS error. Actually, I think this dialog is coming from the prefs code.

prefapi.c has a function called pref_Alert which uses kAlertPlainAlert rather than one with an icon. Other problems include the use of hard coded strings.

Over to pchen, paul this looks like an easy one-liner, change the dialog type to an icon type.?

No, this is very old, and I don't even know if the code is still in libpref to show show a native dialog.

All code accessing this dialog has been removed as part of the work being done as part of bug 46863. For that reason, I am marking this as a duplicate of 46863. If you feel this is in error, feel free to change it back. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 46863 ***

alecf has requested that I not dupe all these bugs, but rather close them as fixed after the work in bug 46863 has landed. Changing again...
