90687 - bogus Saving File Dialog statistics

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, defect)

Description

[siemsen]

When I download a file, the file is transferred fine, but the "Saving
File" download progress dialog box displays bogus statistics.

The "Status" line says "xxx of 0Kbytes".  The xxx part is fine, and
steadily increases as the file is transferred, but "0K" should be some
constant value.

The "Time Left" line has *increasing* numbers that stay synchronized
with the "Elapsed time" line.  They should be decreasing.

The "Progress" bar remains blank.

at least the first issue is covered by bug 90074

reporter, could you attach a screenshot?

Comment 2

[basic]

most of the issues have been fixed in bug 84410, the remaining 0kb issue is
bug 90074. However if you think this is suppost to be fixed differently, see bug
89113.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 90074 ***

Argh! In order to attach a screenshot as asked, I repeated the download
attempt.  This time, of course, the "Saving File" dialog displayed the
correct information as the download progressed.  I'm sorry, I should not
have checked the "bug is repeatable" box so hastily when submitting the
initial bug report.

I changed the bug status to "closed", and will reopen when I can
reliably repeat the symptoms.

mass verification of WorksForMe bugs: to find all bugspam pertaining to this,
set your search string to "IfItWorksForSlappyTheSquirrelThenItWFM".

if you think this particular bug is *still* an open issue, please make sure of
the following before reopening:

a. that it's still a problem with ***recent trunk builds*** on the all
appropriate platform[s]

b. provide clear steps to reproduce (unless a good test case is already in the
bug report), making sure it pertains to the original problem (avoid morphing as
much as possible :)
