* TITLE/SUMMARY [PP] Forms overlayed/leave bitgunk upon reflow on Mac * STEPS TO REPRODUCE 0) Launch Apprunner 1) For a really obvious example, view wire.ap.org or www.ea.com. For a much more subtle (but unlikely to change) example, view http://www.prometheus-music.com/ gecko/formtest1.html * RESULT - What happened a. wire.ap.org & www.ea.com: Upon final page reflow, several superimposed copies of the pop-up menus are drawn. Problem doesn't recur upon pressing the Reload button. b. http://www.prometheus-music.com/gecko/formtest.html: Upon final page reflow, a bit of bitgunk appears around the borders of the pop-up menu. - What was expected One pop-up menu, no surrounding bitgunk. I'll enclose a Mac PICT file showing what the pop-up menu looks like in example a. * REGRESSION - Occurs On Mac OS Apprunner (4.29.99 optimized build) - Doesn't Occur On Win32 [on NT4 SP3], Linux Apprunner (4.29.99) * CONFIGURATIONS TESTED - [Mac] Power Mac 8500/120 (233 Mhz 604e), 64 MB RAM (VM on; 1 MB of VM used), 1024x768 (Thousands of Colors), Mac OS 8.5.1 - [Win32] Vectra VL (233 Mhz P2), 96 MB RAM, 800x600 (True Color), NT 4.0 SP3. - [Linux] Vectra VL (266 Mhz P2), 96 MB RAM.

Mac only, reassigning to Pierre.

It looks like it's been fixed as part of #2236.

Don't have a Mac handy to verify this... elig?

[Oops. Wrong URL in step 1; it's formtest.html, not formtest1.html. Sorry] Anyway, I'm re-opening this for Pierre's thoughts. Using the 4.30.99 afternoon build: * If I view http://www.prometheus-music.com/gecko/formtest.html, I crash. (Talkback ID EAM49CLE; will enclose stack crawl) * If I view wire.ap.org, I still see bitgunk underneath the pop-up menus (as described in the enclosed PICT file) Would you like me to split these into different bugs? Thank you!

(Err, actually, that's a cross-platform crash. I'll search for other bugs, and only paste in the stack crawl if I can't find it elsewhere.)

So, the crash noted is actually bug #5762. Pierre, should I open a separate bug regarding the bit gunk surrounding the pop- up menu (as described a bit earlier)? Thanks.

I can reproduce the problem. Set milestone to M6.

It should be easy to fix but still... pushing to M7.

Fixed. I also fixed various problems with the popup menus on the same page (wire.ap.org).

This looks much, much better. Can't reproduce any problems on wire.ap.org, or on the formtest.html test case. I do note that a rectangular, grey background region now surrounds the pop-up menus on www.ea.com. I'll connect with Chris Pratt, and find out whether this should be split into a separate bug (knowing Chris, I'd bet he has already written it up.) Thanks!

I've broken the grey rectangle thing that I noted yesterday into bug #7766, assigned to Pierre.
