Build ID: 20010924 Instead of giving an error and making the user click one more time than they have to, is it possible to have the advanced edit button greyed out instead of clickable? Reproducible: Always Steps to reproduce: 1.Open Composer 2.Click on the image button on the toolbar 3.Click on the advanced edit button Actual Results: Composer gives an error. Expected Results: I would expect that the "Advanced Edit..." button would be greyed out. This makes things a bit simpler for the user.
Confirmed on Win 2k using build 20011003, and Mac OSX using build 20011004.

I disagree. Grayed out buttons don't tell the user what's wrong. Error dialog messages do.

reopen bug; we should be consistent... either the OK button should also give this message or Advanced Edit button should be disabled.

This issue exists in thes dialogs: Insert Table, Image, Link, and Named Anchor. After discussion, we've decided to disable the Advanced Edit button with the same rules for Ok button in those dialogs.
