172688 - Java applet draws itself over toolbar on initial page load

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Camino Graveyard :: Plug-ins, defect)

Description

[Chris Petersen]

Build: 2002-10-04-04
Platform: OS X 10.2.1
Expected Results: Applet should remain in the browser window
What I got: As window is resized vertically, the applet will "float" over the
bookmark and main toolbar.

Steps to reproduce:

1) Go to url
2) Applet is intialized on the page. Resize the page vertically so that window's
size is reduced.
3) Notice the applet will float over the toolbar instead of remaining on the
content area of page.

Comment 1

[Chris Petersen]

Attachment: Applet element that is inside a DIV (no alignment specified).

Applet should float over toolbar when window size is reduced(vertically).

Comment 2

[Chris Petersen]

Attachment: Same test case but DIV has a alignment of "center"

The applet remains in the content area of the page when the window is resized.

Comment 3

[Chris Petersen]

Notice that second test case doesn't have the same problem since the DIV has
been centered. This test case is based on a applet found at
http://www.webreference.com/html/tools/colorizer/ which wasn't reproducing the
same problem I was seeing with other applet tests.

This is an issue with the Java plugin.

This is applet from the bbc site (bug 79602). After loading this url, reducing
the window size vertically will cause the applet to float over the toolbar.

Scrolling with Java plugins is much better after some recent fixes (note that
the issue was with applets inside <iframe>s, which is what the BBC site has.

However, there is still an issue where the applet draws over the toolbar on
initial page load.

This problem still occurs in the 2003081002 chimera NB. The applet can float
over the bookmark toolbar when the browser window is reduced. Tested under 10.2.6.

Resizing the page with the attachment in comment 1 seems to work properly in
Camino 20041212 0.8+ using the Java Embedding Plugin being developed in bug 197813.

Comment 17

[Jasper]

Yep looks fixed using the java embedding plugin and 20050130 NB.

This might not be fixed (completely) by the JEP; with the testcase in comment 1,
when I resize the page, I notice some detritus in the tab bar (when tabs are
open), but nothing like without the JEP.

I think comment 18 is really bug 302712.

Comment 20

Fixed by bundling the Java Embedding Plugin with Camino (nightly builds 20050729
and later), bug 301076.
