24850 - Exception when pressing Cancel in file selection dialog

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, defect, P2)

Description

[Cyril Bortolato]

Steps to reproduce:
1) launch mozilla, and right click on any link on mozilla.org page.
2) select "Save link as..." in the popup menu. A file selection dialog pops up.
3) click on Cancel button. An ugly message appears:

user hit cancel
SelectFileAndTransferLocationSpec failed, rv=[Exception... "Component returned
failure code: 0x80004004 (NS_ERROR_ABORT)
[nsIStreamTransfer.SelectFileAndTransferLocationSpec]"  nsresult: "0x80004004
(NS_ERROR_ABORT)"  location: "JS frame ::
chrome://navigator/content/nsContextMenu.js :: anonymous :: line 413"  data: no]

Expected results:
File selection dialog should not throw an exception when Cancel is pressed?
Or this exception should be handled properly by the JS code?

Platform:
Build ID=2000012209 on Linux

This is a dup of one I have fixed (I think).  You might be blocked from 
verifying by bug #26607, though.

I still see the exception message with 2000-02-14-16 on Linux.

Bill or Pav fixed this one some time ago.

[Cyril Bortolato]

With 2000-05-19-13 on Linux, I still see an exception when I press Cancel:

user hit cancel
SelectFileAndTransferLocationSpec failed, rv=[Exception... "Component returned
failure code: 0x80004004 (NS_ERROR_ABORT)
[nsIStreamTransfer.SelectFileAndTransferLocationSpec]"  nsresult: "0x80004004
(NS_ERROR_ABORT)"  location: "JS frame ::
chrome://navigator/content/nsContextMenu.js :: anonymous :: line 488"  data: no]

Reopening.

I still see the exception on Linux 2000-09-17-06. It says:

SelectFileAndTransferLocationSpec failed, rv=[Exception... "Component returned
failure code: 0x80004004 (NS_ERROR_ABORT)
[nsIStreamTransfer.SelectFileAndTransferLocationSpec]"  nsresult: "0x80004004
(NS_ERROR_ABORT)"  location: "JS frame ::
chrome://navigator/content/nsContextMenu.js :: anonymous :: line 743"  data: no]
