Problem seems to be a FIELDSET with a (insufficiently) specified CSS height. Some form controls are not visible. ->HTMLFormControls for further triage.

No dupes found. Confirming and marking NEW. This may end up as Evangelism, though.

The FIELDSET has a CSS specified height of 95px but the content requires more. The current behaviour acts as if the FIELDSET has "overflow:hidden" but I thought "overflow:visible" was the default. Do form controls have a different default value for the CSS overflow property? In fact, the testcase doesn't display differently even if I add "overflow:visible" to the FIELDSET.

Reconfirmed using FizzillaCFM/2002071208. Setting All/All, and trying a revised Summary. This probably belongs on Style System or Layout; trying Style System first.

Summary: Page rendered incorrectly → overflow:visible not working on FIELDSETs
No, this belongs in form controls. Fieldset is a hard-coded layout object (nsIFrame) right now.
