274761 - iFrame flashes out of place when in floating box

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Layout, defect)

Description

[Jason Moiron]

When an iFrame is placed inside a floating box and the window is resized, the
iFrame will flash above its current position.

On other pages I have observed this behavior even when the page is scrolled or
when the iFrame's content is updated; but I could only reproduce the case in
which  the bahavior can be observed on a window resize.  This behavior was
observed in the 1.0 release of Firefox for both Windows and Linux.

I'm sorry;  this behavior is easily reproducible but can be observed:

This is fixed on the trunk by the fix for bug 238493. The fix is only in recent
1.8a builds. The fix is _not_ in Mozilla1.7.x or Firefox1.0.
