M12 build for Linux: Preferences->Advanced->Cache Disk Cache Folder->"Choose Folder" It brings up the folder selection dialog, but nothing is selectable and I have to close the window.
*** Bug 22399 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
good question: Matt, has this feature not been implemented yet? (that would explain why it's disabled.) if so, what milestone is it expected in? also adding morton@nortelnetworks.com's info from 22399: "After you have attempted to set the cache folder the prefs UI works OK. But when you try to dismiss it via the 'OK' button the browser hangs. Obviously connected with the folder selection problem."
Summary: Cache folder selection dialog doesn't work → Cache folder selection dialog doesn't work, browser hangs
question to user: could you please tell me which build you used? i'd like to try to repro the hanging problem you're seeing (i've mod the summary likewise).

yup, repro with the 1999122023-m12 linux build. not a problem on winNT (1999122100-m12) or mac (1999122111-m12), as i'm able to bring up the [functioning] dialog for selecting the disk cache folder. bumped up sev and prio. 1. go to Prefs > Advanced > Cache 2. click Choose Folder button (for disk Cache folder) expected: if disabled, that button shouldn't be selectable. if not disabled, user should be able to select items in the dialog and gracefully get out of Prefs. result: dialog appears, but nothing is selectable (not even OK or Cancel), so need to close the window via X button. dialog window goes grey and the browser hangs. had to close (via X button) the main browser win to quit. here's the console output (from the time Prefs is selected): Doing Appearance startup...

Linux I can select a file, click OK, textfield is blank, click in textfield, content appears. This bug is fixed, the need-to-click-to-see-contents part is another bug.
looks fine with 2000-01-31-14 comm bits.
