No javascript alert in Firefox when uploading images fails

[anonymous]

system: Windows XP sp2 browser: Firefox 1.0.7 / IE 6.0

I've tried to use the "browse on server" interface befor i set the permissions on my sever to 777. I took the following steps: editor ->image upload- button->browse on server->create folder. On my firefox browser i got no message, and nothing happened. When i did exactly the same steps in IE 6.0 however, i got a Javascript alertbox which said "you have no permission to create the folder".

In both cases (with the permission not set to 777) i did not get a message when i tried to upload a file. I am just reporting this because there is a different reaction in different browsers.

Although it says in the manual that you should set the permission to 777, i think it would be neat to have a javascipt pop-up that says something like "you have no permission". Due to this message, i was able to trace down what i needed to change in order to make the editor work in 20 minutes. With no "error"-message (it wasnt really an error, was it?) i had no clue on what to change to make the FCKeditor work properly. In stead i found that a lot of people like me did not get it either. I've wasted a whole day trying to figure it out. Yet, once i got the message, solving the problem was easy.

But thanks for the brilliant piece of software in the first place. Couldnt have asked for a better texteditor: it does everything i want a texteditor to do! Simply briliant!

Is this still a problem?

Specially saying that it doesn't work in Firefox looks strange.
