[chromium-dev] Re: Multiple constrained windows
At the moment, every auth dialog shows one constrained window immediately. On linux (and probably windows), all those dialogs are on the screen at the same time, but since they are at the same position it looks like they appear in succession. Joel: This is only about how to display dialogs the backend tells the frontend to display, not about changing the backend code :-) On Sat, Nov 7, 2009 at 10:23 PM, Ben Goodger (Google) b...@chromium.org wrote: How is it implemented now? -Ben On Sat, Nov 7, 2009 at 10:18 PM, Nico Weber tha...@chromium.org wrote: Hi, some pages try to show multiple http auth dialogs at the same time ( one example is in http://crbug.com/26900 ).

Any opinions out there? As a user of HTTP auth dialogs for proxy authentication on Linux, I would appreciate changing the behaviour to only showing the window once. In fact, it would be better if there was only one auth window shown for the entire browser, but this is unique to the http proxy case - you don't want it when it's only one site requesting authentication.
