Clicking on .notary links #97

Closed mperkel closed 12 years ago

mperkel commented 12 years ago

When I click on a link to a .notary file it asks me if I want to trust the notary. I click OK and nothing happens. The prompt should close and it doesn't. I click OK several more time out of frustration. Then when I check to see if it did anything it added the trust about 12 times, for every click.

1) Clicking should make the dialog close. 2) Should not allow duplicates.

Duplicate entries is already being tracked here: https://github.com/moxie0/Convergence/issues/86

I can't reproduce the problem where the dialog does not close, however. What version of FF and what OS are you running? Can you provide the output from running FF in a terminal/console when this happens?

I'm running Windows 7 with FF 7.01. Hope that helps.

BTW - I used to work for EFF. I was their first full time systems admin.

BTW - do you need more notary servers? I can probably throw a VPS together for you.

I got this too, but only once. In my opinion, it`s from Firefox freezing.

Well all this code got reworked for the new HA notary setup, so I'm going to close this until it's reproducible again. @mperkel, I think what we need are more notaries from recognized organizations, rather than just more notaries in general. You should get the EFF going on that. =)
