Details
platforms: macos851, nt40, redhat52, Feb 04 1999 (9902041[32])
problem: on nova and msie4.x, the yellow bars containing the text "MY STOCKS"
and "MY NEWS" are rendered with a nice (~12px) buffer area below the big blue
box. but on seamonkey, they are pushed up against the blue box. (must see to
believe. will have a minimized test case later...)
Summary: [pp]99020412 excite lays out it's sections weird.. → 99020412 excite lays out it's sections weird..
Target Milestone: M3
Happens on all platforms, thus not a [pp] bug. Removing from pp list and
setting to M3.
Summary: 99020412 excite lays out it's sections weird.. → 99020412 <form> is treated as inline instead of block
kipp, i've been hacking away at the testcase and i came up with this:
the problem is with <form></form>. form is a block-level element, so
in nav 4.x, an element within a form is seaparated from one outside
the form by a nice linebreak. gecko treats form as inline, which causes the
ugly layout on excite. i have two simple testcases, one with tables, as in
excite's homepage, and one with images. compare in nova and seamonkey.
