693038 - File upload browse dialog cannot be resized in certain situations

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 684506

(Firefox :: Shell Integration, defect)

Description

[Pekka]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:7.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/7.0.1
Build ID: 20110928134238

Steps to reproduce:

Uploaded a file using a website upload dialog.
A site using this kind of dialog can be found at e.g. http://imgur.com/?noFlash amongst other places. Note that the Flash version found on the same site works fine.


Actual results:

The file browsing window was of a very small fixed size. Resizing it seemed impossible, and browsing large folders of files is very annoying, especially when using thumbnails.


Expected results:

The file browsing window should be of the ordinary, resizable kind, which you see for instance when you ctrl-S to save the current page.

I get a filepicker than can be resized.

Unless I'm mistaken, you're using a newer version of Firefox (10?) - I only get this behaviour on 7.0.1. It did not occur on 6.0. Might be fixed, then, although I couldn't find any prior entries on this in the bugtracker.

should be fixed in the coming FF9
