Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout, defect)

Description

[Chris Peterson [:cpeterson]]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6b) Gecko/20031113 Firebird/0.7+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6b) Gecko/20031113 Firebird/0.7+

The article summaries flow across the screen, beneath the "Ads by Google"
column. This web site works correctly in IE. I was using Firebird 0.7 and this
web site worked correctly until I upgraded to Firebird nightly build 20031113.
This bug is probably a recent regression.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to http://www.actionscript.com

Actual Results:  
The article summaries flow across the screen, beneath the "Ads by Google" column.

Expected Results:  
The article summaries should word-wrap and stay on the left-side of the "Ads by
Google" column.

Page looks ok, but then I realized I didn´t see a flash. I´m using Shockwave
Flash 7.0 r14, Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.6b) Gecko/20031113
Wanted to ask you which flash you are using, but I´m sure you got the latest and
greatest, looking at your address.
There are a lot of errors about this over here, please have a look:

Bug 218187 Main page dropdown menu is correct but subsection baseball, nfl etc
dropdown menu is mangled due to flash

Bug 220094	Pulldown menu is partially obscured

ok, the web site now looks correct this morning. Perhaps this was a temporary
problem on the web site itself (though it did look correct on IE6 at the same
time it was broken on Firebird).
