333170 - HTML Message with <object> (embedded data) doesn't render

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(MailNews Core :: Backend, defect)

Description

[Mike Cowperthwaite]

An HTML message containing an <object> which has a 'data' element pointing to a MIME part fails to render the object.  This is occurring on the trunk (pre-1.9) but not on the 1.8.1 branch -- I see the symptom with
  Seamonkey 1.5a-0329
  TB 3a1-0329
But not
  Seamonkey 1.0
  TB 2a1-0328

Test case follows

Attachment: Sample message

Steps to Reproduce:
1) Integrate the attachment into message folders
2) Open the program
3) Select the message

Actual results:
<img> tag of data display as an image; <object> tag of same data does not

Expected results:
Both tags display the image.


With 1.8.1 branch or trunk, you can open also this file using   File|Open   rather than integrating into the mail folders; this will work fine to show how the branch does not exhibit the bug but the trunk does.  This same technique under Seamonkey 1.0/TB 1.5 does not display correctly (I think due to bug 206278).
