Tested with today's builds on Mac and Windows: - go to http://www.mozilla.org/binaries.html - click on the "FTP server" link ==> The Confirm dialog is not displayed. Instead, you get a debug message "JavaScript error: confirm is not defined". A similar instance of the same problem: - go to http://home.netscape.com - wait until the page is loaded - click in the URL field and type Return in order to reload the page - repeat the steps above several times ==> We never get the small ad dialogs Another instance: - go to any personal page on geocities ==> The usual ad windows are not displayed (hey! that could be a feature!)

Clearing Milestone for don to re-set.

Re-assigned to davidm@netscape.com, set target milestone to M4, and changed component to XPApps and priority to P3.

I am reassigning to the JS people. It seems to me the runtime environment isn't there yet. If it is just a matter of putting up the dialogs, if you tell me where the code belongs I'll hook the dialogs up.

Deferred to M5.

The confirm problems is different from window.open not working in AppRunner. Tom, this is still an open bug for the AppRunner folks, right?

The JS side of this is hooked up. The problem is in interfaces exposed by apprunner. In this case, the nsINetSupport interface. In any case, the mechanism for this is somewhat in flux. rpotts volunteered to take it and make appropriate fixups when the appropriate dialog mechanism is solidified.

Changed milestone to M6.

Rick, are you still going to work on this one?

I notice there are a couple of people here who are on it, but those who aren't should definitely check out bug #6211, which is very important to this bug.

Changing all Networking Library/Browser bugs to Networking-Core component for Browser. Occasionally, Bugzilla will burp and cause Verified bugs to reopen when I do this in a bulk change. If this happens, I will fix. ;-)

I think this was fixed long ago.

Bulk move of all Networking-Core (to be deleted component) bugs to new Networking component.

Reopening bug since I tested it with 12-14-09, and problem still seems to be there. I couldn't see small advertisment windows on above mentioned sites. Thought if I try to use "window.open" "onLoad" event then it works fine, but small windows for above mentioned sites [Sites mentioned by reporter] do not show up. Reopening bug. please correct me if I'm wrong.

I think that this bug was reopened in error. It works for me on both Mac and Windows with the builds of the day. Marking fixed again. Note: you don't get ads on Mozilla, just a small dialog saying "Are you sure you want to do this crazy thing?"

Sorry pierre, I checked this again and seems working fine with todays build. Verified with 12-16-09.
