153782 - Javascript doesn't render page

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout, defect, P3)

Description

[Robert Gammon]

I am running Alpha candidate 1.1, build 2002061104.  When I load the page above
and click on the link to eBay User ID, a javascript window opens and gets
painted.  No text is visible on the page.  When I start Netscape 4.78 and click
on the same link, the javascript window opens and the text paints normally.  The
JRE is 1.3.1, downloaded from sun.com  I also tested the same link with Netscape
6.2 and the javascript window painted the text normally.

Browser, not engine ---> Layout.

Confirming bug with Mozilla trunk binary 20020617xx on WinNT
The eBay User ID" link " brings up a child window with this address:

         http://pages.ebay.com/help/new/user_id.html

In IE6, this looks right. In Mozilla, you can't see any content
in the lower frame. All you see is the yellow background -

NOTE: in the Mozilla DOM Inspector, we do see the content model
for the lower frame, but none of the elements seem to be visible.
(When you click on any of the lower-frame elements in the DOM 
Inspector, nothing is highlighted in red. It's all invisible).

cc'ing Joe in case he can instantly see what's happening here -

linux build 20020620 also does not paint the bottom frame, but build 20020622
works fine.

Robert: could you try out a newer build?

Comment 3

[Robert Gammon]

Downloaded 2002062106 and installed it.  Again on Win98.  Bottom of frame has
invisible text as before.

Comment 4

[Robert Gammon]

Downloaded 2002062308 and the text is not visible.  So if linux 20020622 fixes
the problem, they have a code difference with the win32 version.

Is this still a problem?

Comment 6

[Robert Gammon]

Two things have happened.  eBay has changed the page and I am now using Moz 1.4a
2003040120.  This is no longer a problem page for Mozilla.
