*** observed with Mac build 2001-11-29 ( theWindows build failed to launch)*** Steps to reproduce: - switch skin from modern to classic ( i haven't had a problem with modern skin)- open Mail/Newsgroup; - click "Get mail"; - when prompted for the password enter your passowrd; //note: there is no way to Ok or Cancel the password and eventually i crash ( i am using the french keyboard but i am not entering french chars, using english keyboard i can Ok the dlgbox but then it hangs
this is also happening with the Password Manager dialogue... the Cancel and Okay buttons do nothing...user must force kill app to escape

sounds like it's happening with all password dialogs not mail. Looks like morse made some changes to common dialogs last night for passwords. Steve can you take a look?
re-assigning for real this tie.

There are also some pretty several problems in Composer and Mail Compose (can't dismiss dialog by clicking "Don't Save") If no fix is imminent, we should backout the fix for bug 111396.
I've heard of this before using <dialog> on Mac. Has something to do with focus.
I'm on it.

the Bug Hewitt mentions is bug 106866
I'm not seeing a problem in my tree which is from 11-27 but has my changes from last night in it. I have a current build going on right now which is almost done. I'll check it there in a few minutes.
too many mid-air collisions... are there other dialogs in the browser which are affected? also, is this only with the classic theme, and/or only the mac?
Steve--please also check your build for regression bug 112643 (in Composer)
bug 112643 seems similar....mac seems affected more seriosly than other platforms. I had the same issue with the default browser dialogue on launch with windows. although "cancel" let me continue.
the 'ask-save' for composer doesn't work on modern either (mac). the buttons are in the wrong order and clicking the "don't save" button does nothing.
brade: Although I can't reproduce this problem, I can reproduce the problem in bug 112643. I'm going to try backing out my patch in my local tree and see if that fixes 112643.

I just backed out the patch for bug 111396. That fixes bug 112643. However since I could never reproduce this problem, I don't know if backing out the patch fixes it or not.
By "this problem" in my preceding comment, I meant the current bug report, namely 112663. I *was* able to reproduce the problem in bug 112643 and backing out the patch of bug 111396 indeed fixed that problem.
OK, I just realized that this is a mac-only problem. That's why I couldn't reproduce it!
Shouldn't we mark this fixed now and open the tree since the steve backed out the problem?
Someone needs to test this before we mark it fixed. It's a mac-only problem so I am unable to reproduce it.
In comment 12, Mike Pinkerton wrote: the buttons are in the wrong order What order are the buttons supposed to be in on the mac? On my windows build the buttons are in the order save/dont-save/cancel, both with and without my patch applied.
the correct ordering for macos is: don't save | cancel | save
mac os9 2001-11-29-13-trunk respin works ...all the dialogue dismissal problem i had seen are gone. marking fixed

i still have some problems with classic skin: i am able to dismiss the password dlgbox but i can not get to any folder because the login process spins indefinetely ( i don't see this happening with modern skin)
Since it's happening with all password dialogs not mail or IMAP specific, reassignning to Browser/password manager.

Mike, that is exactly what i am seeing, IMAP never stops spinning, but it i see it only with classic skin ( modern is fine)
