I was automating some web UI which is supported on firefox but recently i saw that popup msgs like alert,confirm doesn't display the titlebar which usually says "The page at xyz.com says:". How can get it back...? or what all setting changes that i need to do in order to get it back. the same alert box with title bar as mentioned above can be seen in chrome but missing in firefox10.0 n above.

Thank you cor-el. ur solution worked for me. Thanks alot...:-).cor-el said

That would be about disabling modal mode for these alerts.
  • prompts.tab_modal.enabled = false
Note that that will block the user interface and you won't be able to do anything until you close the tab. This change was made to prevent websites from blocking Firefox by continuously reopen such an alert/prompt. Bug 432687 - (eviltraps) Protect users from Javascript trap websites
