178276 - fieldset content is not correctly rendered when its CSS display is toggled

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 177261

(Core :: Layout: Form Controls, defect)

Description

[Martin Honnen]

I have an HTML <fieldset> element containing a <div> element with some <input>
controls. When I set the CSS display of the <div> to none and back to normal
again  there are rendering problems with the fieldset outline and in particular
the <input type="text">. Indeed the rendering is very odd, the inputs have a
border but the content doesn't reside inside the border but sits further up
outside of the border. You can even edit the text there.
This happens with both Netscape 7 as well as Mozilla 1.2b (Gecko/20021027).
IE6 has no problems with the example.
I will attach a test case demonstrating the problem.
I have filed this on Layout: Form Controls, if a layout problem resulting from
script manipulation doesn't fit there then please change the component as needed.
