298361 - after renaming a newly created folder in the installer - it is not displayed correctly in the folder input field

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 259632

(Firefox :: Installer, defect)

Description

[J.P.Klippel]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: 

When creating a new folder and renaming it via the installer dialog "Install
folder"->"Browse..." the new name is not displayed in the textfield normally
containing the current selected foldername. Instead still "New Folder" is
displayed. Pressing ok in this situation actually does take the new folders
_new_ name back to the installer. A simple click to select the folder again does
not change the name. One has to select a different folder and switch back to the
newly created and renamed one to get the expected result.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Firefox 1.0.5 installer
2. Accept License
3. Select Custom Installation
4. On the "Install Folder" dialog press "Browse..."
5. On the file dialog press "New folder"-button
   - a new folder is created -
6. Rename the folder

Actual Results:  
The folder name in the input field is not changed.


Expected Results:  
The folder name in the input field should display the new name.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a

you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
