586890 - Warning dialog for secure page with unencrypted info looks horrible

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Toolkit :: UI Widgets, defect)

Description

[:Gijs (he/him)]

Attachment: Screenshot

(from: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:2.0b2) Gecko/20100720 Firefox/4.0b2 )

STR:

1. Create a new profile, or reset the "security.warn_viewing_mixed" preference.

2. Open some HTTPS page with http content in it (I had this problem on MDC, but that seems to be sane now...)

AR:
The hideousness in the screenshot. The text for the checkbox doesn't wrap, which stretches the dialog, but the dialog text itself doesn't stretch.

ER:
Something that looks better. I'm not even sure why this is an alert() warning rather than a notification bar.

Bug in commonDialog.css - it forces the info to wrap, but not the checkbox.

The problem also occurs on other platforms but it's particularly noticable on the Mac because pinstripe has a lower maximum width.

Notification bars don't have a C++ API, so PSM can't create one.

Did this wrap correctly in Firefox 3.6, or is this a possible regression from bug 563274?

Don't think this happens anymore because our mixed-content-blocking stuff has evolved.
