Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 401201

(Mozilla Labs :: Prism, defect)

Description

[Cindy Wong]

User-Agent:       Opera/9.24 (Windows NT 5.1; U; en)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a9pre) Gecko/2007102311 webrunner/0.7

When attempting to install a webapp with invalid Windows path characters in the name (any of \/:*?"<>|), clicking OK button on the install screen does nothing.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Prism
2. Enter any URL
3. Enter any name with one of the invalid Windows path characters
4. Check at least one shortcut to be created
5. Click OK
Actual Results:  
Nothing happens: Prism dialog does not close, webapp and shortcut(s) are not created, and no error message.

Expected Results:  
Either display an error dialog propagating the failure to create the webapp due to the invalid characters, or escape/replace the invalid characters with valid ones and create the webapp.
