270441 - strange behaviour when going over text which has a tooltip provided by intelliTxt

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Firefox :: General, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

The page in question displays a news and it uses a JS way of displaying tooltips
to some key-words... like Internet Explorer in our case. When you go over that
word (underlined) the tooltip appears. Left to the word there is a flash.
Tooltip is displayed UNDER the flash. Also it seems that the vertical-banner on
the right and the flash in the center their top is re-displayed. And in the case
of the Flash parts of the top of the flash is being redisplayed twice. I am not
sure what's the js provided by vibrantmedia.com, but I am sure it should screw
up the display of the page. In the worst case it should display the tooltip.
So... I guess it's a bug with FF.
More than that... and the strange part when I view the source code of the page
it is displayed allright. If I am selecting the text which contains the
underlined words (with tooltip) and select View Selection Source... the code
appears like this:
<a target="_blank" href="#" style="background-color: ; text-decoration:
underline;" class="iAs">Internet Explorer</a>
The tag was added by intelliTxt JS script and it does not appear on normal View
Source of the entire page. Maybe this is a subject of a second bug... or it is a
normal behaviour of the view source...

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
