WebDAV to a non-anonymous WebDAV share (box.com) is not working right.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Go to Go > Connect to Server...
2. Enter the proper details as directed on http://xmodulo.com/how-to-mount-box-com-cloud-storage-on-linux.html (even though this is Nautilus but PCManFM has the same looking dialog)
3. Then click on "Login as" and type in the login email.
4. The OK button does not become active at all, and you cannot log in, even if you try to use anonymous login.

What should happen:
A password dialog should appear, and my files should be mounted.

davfs2 is installed.

This has been an ongoing problem with PCManFM for years, and has been noted on http://forum.slitaz.org/topic/pcmanfm-120

Lubuntu 15.10. I will be attaching a screenshot detailing this problem.

    Thank you very much for reporting this. I believe the issue with inactive OK button is fixed in the GIT repository. I've also tried to fix support for secure WebDAV there, try to use https://dav.box.com as a Host, it should work now. Adding Secure WebDAV to the list in the dialog window is actually a feature so we cannot add it in 1.2.x versions due to feature freeze, so let do it in 1.3.
