* TITLE/SUMMARY Disabled buttons remain highlighted during installation * STEPS TO REPRODUCE 0) Launch the Mozilla Installer 1) Proceed through the installer until you reach the "Install" button. 2) Press the "Install" button. * RESULT - What happened Neither the "Go Back" or "Install" buttons disable, despite being buttons that the user can no longer press. - What was expected I think there's a deeper question of what the user would _want_ to do at this point --- e.g. rather than simply disable the buttons in question: * the MindVision VISE installer, at this point, pops up a new progress window, with the only button being "Stop". * the Apple installer also pops up a new modal progress window, with the only button being "Cancel". * REGRESSION - Occurs On Mozilla Installer 11.15.99 build - Doesn't Occur On MindVision Installer VISE (from Communicator 4.7 installer) Mac OS Installer (from Mac OS 8.1) * CONFIGURATIONS TESTED - [Mac] Beige Power Mac G3 (266 MHz PowerPC 750), 96 MB RAM (VM on; 1 MB of VM used), 1024x768 (Thousands of Colors), Mac OS 8.6 - [Win32] Vectra VL (233 MHz P2), 96 MB RAM, 800x600 (True Color), NT 4.0 SP5. - [Linux] Vectra VL (266 MHz P2), 96 MB RAM.

reassigning to Samir. It's mac thang...

We considered putting a "Stop" button in place of the "Install" button and hiding the "Go Back" button altogether once installation of the .xpis commences. However, it is currently not possible to stop midway through a .xpi installation (architectural constraint of calling the XPInstall shared lib synchronously). So, we have two cosmetic options. I seek a vote. 1> Disable both buttons 2> Hide both buttons I'm leaning towards option 1, which is the summary of this bug alludes to anyways.

Unfortunately, I don't have a meaningful opinion as to which is better, and defer to sfraser.

Fixed: disable the buttons when installing now.

this appears to be working on build 1999112308, Eli, do you want to verify after me and mark?
