Steps to reproduce: 1. Visit the attachment 2 [details] [diff] [review]. Move the mouse over Yesterday in Parliament Result: The link is inserted into the page. I know that bug 15913 covers this already, but I so not see the problem on the specified site or the testcase for that bug... BuildID: 2000012520 WinNT 4 SP6
Attached file Electronic Telegraph Page (deleted) —
Are you saying that on every mouse over you're getting an extra link? If yes, then this bug is a definite dup of 25376 ( which is a dup of 15913 ). What I noticed was that on mouse over "Yesterday in Parliament" the content in the middle, where "Yesterday in Parliament" is, flashes.
Moving to M16.
Target Milestone: M16
On older builds I used to see inserted content (but I couldn't get the site reported in bug bug 15913 to do this so I thought this may be different). This stopped for a while but has now turned into the flashing link you descibed.
I have noticed that the neither the link Yesterday in Parliament or the paragraph above can be selected. Maybe this is a dup of another bug?
Summary: Mouse over links causes extra content (new) → Mouse over links causes flashing
I think this will probably turn out to be very similar to, but name exactly the same, as 25376. I'm going to reassign both of them as style issues.
Hmm. On further research I may be wrong, the stacks are very different. I'll keep looking.
Bulk prioritizing bugs for correct milestones.
Target Milestone: M16 → M18
I'm no longer seeing the flashing. 051508 Linux.
I no longer see this (build 052520 WinNT 4 SP6). Marking worksforme.
