The Try Again button becomes disabled if it is pressed and the Page Load Error page appears again. This is caused by a connection being dropped.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have a network intensive application in the background (e.g. bittorrent)
2. Wait until the network is unstable
3. Visit a page
4. Page Load Error page should appear
5. Click on Try Again button
6. If network is unstable, Page Load Error page should appear again but with the Try Again button disabled

Actual Results:  
Try Again button is disabled.

Expected Results:  
Try Again button is not disabled.

You still can refresh the page by using the refresh button or any other means but inexperienced users will not know about this.
Are you sure that you did not press the Stop button (or hit Escape) while waiting for the connection timeout?

I'm asking because there is a known problem that the button is not re-enabled in this case (bug 410397).
Version: unspecified → 3.0 Branch
The only button I pressed was the Try Again button.
Well, I cannot reproduce this on a current build of Firefox 3.
I will try again on the latest nightlies. It's been 2 months so it might have been fixed but I will check.
results? (FF 3.0.2 is out)

Still occurring with 3.0.5 and latest nightly.
Forgot to mention this also occurs in Firefox 2.0.20 so its not a regression.

same profile, or different?


strange.  It's also been WFM (try again never goes disabled) on my home vista which as recently as today.  I've had problems resulting in frequent page load errors, which appears to be slow DNS** from my ISP or home network. I'm not sure what to conclude why my experience is different from nightstalkerz.  Ropening.

All are on new profiles.
WFM - 3.0.12/linux - 
Can you please try the simpler case of disconnecting your network - unplugging - turning off your router or whatever to see if this same problem occurs?
Disconnecting the network doesn't work as the offline mode will be activated.

This can probably be marked as invalid/cannot reproduce since no one else can reproduce it.
