When installing mozilla using the windows installer, each new screen shown on screen is placed more and more to the left or top if the windows taskbar is placed on that edge of the screen. It's particularly noticeable with the taskbar located at the top of the screen, as in just ten next/back steps the window has moved completely offscreen (at 1400x1050). This regressed between 20040704-09 and 20040712-15. (I can't narrow it down further, as archive.mozilla.org doesn't have more windows builds between those dates.) The only relevant checkin during that period seems to be the fix for bug 47762 by Sean Su (although I have no idea about the code, so apologies for cc-ing you if you're not responsible) :)
This has been reported at least once already, please search and dup.

Looking at all open installer bugs since early july, I now found the unconfirmed bug 256458 (which by all rights I should've found when searching before, don't know why I didn't), but nothing else. As it doesn't have the information on when it regressed, I'll dupe it to this one.

Comment on attachment 163276 [details] [diff] [review] Patch I have no idea why nobody bothered to request approval for this one yet. It may be too late now, but let's at least try.

Alex: This bug is not reproduced with Firefox. And this patch is only for Mozilla App Suite.
Comment on attachment 163276 [details] [diff] [review] Patch canceling the approval request then. Why is anybody worrying about this bug these days, anyways? Even bugging bsmedberg for check-ins? Either wait a week, or get someone else to do it, please.

Axel, because I'm an xpinstall peer and I reviewed the patch. Masayuki, I will try to remember to commit this when I have time after the Firefox 1.0 release.
