If my preferences are set to "accept all images" and "alert me when downloading an image" is checked, I am always prompted two times if I want to accept images from any new site I visit. I expect it to just prompt me once, unless perhaps I'm not using this feature in the way in which it was intended. I'm not entirely sure how the "alert me when downloading an image" is supposed to interact with the "accept/deny all images" option. In case there is a timing issue involved with this bug, please note that I'm using a modem to connect. Using Mozilla 20010141704 on Windows 95.

This could be a consequence of the rewrite of imagelib.

After setting the same preferences (Advanced>Images) with an otherwise fresh profile I get only one alert per new website; 2001-04-18-04 on WinNT. Kevin, you made a typo in the Build ID you reported: was the month "01" or "04"? If the former, this is probably a WORKSFORME; if the latter there may be some other wrinkle...
Sorry about that typo in my original info :( . It should say that I'm using Mozilla build 2001041704 on Win 95.
uh, these shouldn't currently be getting fired at all.
There's something very strange going on. On sites such as www.mozilla.org, these are not getting fired even once more due to bug 73848. But then on other sites they are still getting fired such as www.mozillazine.org. I have not investigated to figure out what is different between these two types of sites.

i'll revisit this after image blocking works again
Target Milestone: --- → Future
It appears that this bug has been fixed. I cannot reproduce with Mac 9.2 nightly 20011031 or Win98 0.9.5
What I've noticed lately is that the dialog box ("Do you want to allow the image") seems to fire once with regards to the background image, and then a second time for the other images on the page. If the page doesn't have a background image, I'm no longer getting duplicate dialogue boxes.
so should this be marked WORKSFORME?
Component: ImageLib → Image Blocking
No, this has not been completely fixed. The dialogue still fires twice if the page has a background image. One time for the background, and then again if the page has other images to download. If the page has no background image, however, this appears to work normally.
ok. over to morse then.

I'm not sure if this is intentional or not, but the "alert me when downloading an image" option no longer exists at all. I'm not exactly sure when this disappeared, but I suspect it was just during the last few days.
Kevin, see bug 110112 and 145051
invalid since option "alert me before..." is no longer...
