Details
If you visit the above URL, the browser will draw what appears to be a password
entry dialog box over the regular browser window. Neither that window nor the
original browser window are then refreshed, and you can't enter a user name or
password either there, or in the DOS window. Happens with apprunner, 12 March
build. Additionally, clicking on either window's Close box closes all windows
and quits apprunner.

David, this will be fixed by the client auth stuff you, rpotts, and spence are
working on, right?

Changed target milestone to M4.
Move this to M4 until we know spence has delivered the netlib changes.

David still has to hack around netlib for this to work in Windows and Linux.
We're not going to solve this for M5. Moving to M6.

Just to be clear the problem is that not so much in netlib as in our cross thread
communications method (PLEvents). You can't block when handling the PLEvent which
tells you to bring up the window since netlib is going to be sending a bunch of
important events which you don't want queueing up behind your event. My current
plan to from the PLEvent to spin off a timerevent and have the timer event
actually put up the dialog. Not exactly elegant and perhaps someone should
investigate better ways of doing cross thread communications.

I think Parp is down. Feel free to use any other site. I just had a know password
for that site.
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
Whiteboard: apprunner can't / won't connect to parp.mcom.com
