And there are unnecessary scrollbars at the top of the site. Please compare Firebird screen shot with IE Screen shot.
my guess is the overflow:hidden in the source of the frame that contains the iframe is to blame. the behaviour of overflow:hidden was clarified with CSS 2.1, so some sites may be outside of the new spec, which Mozilla is apparently supporting in current nightlies. Works with Seamonkey 1.5a (which I have lying around on this box). Moving to layout since I don't know whether this really is Tech Evangelism. (Blogger is pretty good about supporting Mozilla, so this is probably just a result of things breaking due to changes in the 1.6a cycle.)

If you actually have an account and can see the page in question, could you attach the HTML that shows the problem?
pascal's URL regressed between linux trunk 2003091605 and 2003091822, indicating bug 69355 the page that doesn't show up has overflow:hidden style on BODY.
OS: Windows 2000 → All
Attached file testcase
with <html style="overflow: hidden"> with trunk, document.documentElement.offsetHeight is "8", with 1.5 it's about the client area (size of the window).
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7b) Gecko/20040421) has the same problem also, but testcase returns a variable number depending on the window size.
I'm seeing the same symptom (blank screen) when I try to "edit post" by clicking on the "edit" link in the ":posts" pane. I'm using Mozilla 1.7b on Windows XP. screen capture attachment follows.
mozilla 1.7b, windows XP. I have just clicked on the 'edit' link of the top post in the ':posts' pane.
This bug is now moot because Blogger unveiled its new interface this weekend. The View Blog and Edit Blog interfaces that did not render correctly are now gone from Blogger. The new interface works fine in recent Mozilla browsers under Win XP.
(In reply to comment #15) > This bug is now moot because Blogger unveiled its new interface this weekend. The bug has a testcase, so the bug report will live until a developer fixes it or decides that Mozilla's current rendering is already correct.
Our handling of the testcase in comment 11 seems correct to me -- but is the issue what happens when there's some content in the page?
