Description

The OS file open dialog appears different when opened by FireFox 2 and Internet Explorer 7. The dialog opened by FF2 is consistent with the file open dialog in WinXP. In IE7 the icons on the left are not contained within a shaded area, and displays part of a fifth icon.

Environments

IE7 (WinXP)

    screenshot-1 shows a side-by-side comparison of the file open dialogs called by FF2 (on the left) and IE7 (on the right) in WinXP.

    Notice the icons on the left.

    not sure why this is happening. sounds as if FF and IE actually have their own customized File Open dialogs.

    But there really isn't a way for me to control that aspect of the functionality, and I'm not sure that it's really a problem.
