Select Folder Dialog Box is blank?

I am trying to set up some backups using frontview but everytime I try to use the Browse button to select the source or destination path is just comes up blank. On safari I can hit cancel, but in firefox it just locks up. This is on OS X 10.6.8.

The path is /c/media/Videos/Home Movies. The issue is the space between Home and Movies. I tried /c/media/Videos/Home\ Movies but that didn't work.

any suggestions?

  • ahh, the problem was that the script was running so slowly that I did not know it was doing anything. Perhaps it should only traverse the file structure tree if a folder is opened in the dialog, instead of caching the entire file structure before drawing anything.

    also, I found that just using spaces in the interface was the way to go.
