when you try to subscribe remote calendar based on URL which is not valid you get error instead of user friendly alert

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. subscribe remote calendar URL= Error:
   -> when you type : Next button become enabled
2. finish wizard to create new calendar
Actual Results:  
error console

Error: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x804b0012 [nsIIOService.newChannelFromURI]"  nsresult: "0x804b0012 (<unknown>)"  location: "JS frame :: file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Damian/Pulpit/sunbird/components/calICSCalendar.js :: anonymous :: line 127"  data: no]
Source File: file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Damian/Pulpit/sunbird/components/calICSCalendar.js
Line: 127

Expected Results:  
alert that URL is not valid or data avilable under this URL is not valid

wizard needs validation if data which you input does make sense and if so if there is calendar avialable

rigth now wizard just finish and there is no feedback that something went wrong

Confirmed. There is no error dialog. The calendar is just not created.

Actually, we're going to believe that Bug 314594 and this are the same core issue, manifesting in different ways. This bug is a duplicate of that other bug. But, developers are pointed to comment 8 on bug 314594 that outlines all manifestations of this problem. A patch must address all these issues.
