Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox
Description of the problem:
The Firefox3 "SSL certificate not signed by a known authority" page is a bit cryptic and has a button with an unclear action.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Start firefox .
2. Visit https:/
3. Click on "Or you can add an exception…"
Expected result:
Two buttons to appear, one saying close this window another saying remember this certificate.
Actual result:
Two buttons one saying "Get me out of here!" another saying "Add exception..."
Additional information:
The first time round I clicked "Get me out of here!" and was confused to land on the firefox home page.
Version information:
Ubuntu hardy (development branch)
firefox 3.0~b5+
for what is worth -- I agree with Sitsofe. I also was confused by it.
