Comment 1

[Andreas Plesch]

confirm on 2000080910, Linux, PC:

The sign-up button appears on the daily mail type in field instead of right from it.

Seems like a dupe of bug 47641

Attachment: simplified testcase

Steve, look at the simplified testcase, the button appears on top of the text
input, if you click on the button (kinda hard to do, aim for the border...) the
table reflows and things look OK, could you have a look? Since this appears on
cnn.com I'm nominating this for beta3.

Evangelized our engineering contacts at CNN from the sidebar project and asked 
for referral to cnn.com web site team.

Comment 9

[ekrock's old account (dead)]

Reassigning to buster for investigation of whether we'll add a quirk for 
this since 4.x and IE weren't choking on this markup. Marking 4xp and [nsbeta3-] 
for now.

removing evangwanted keyword. The evangwanted keyword should be 
removed when the evangelized keyword is added.

Comment 11

[buster]

Erik:  I just looked at CNN and this is broken (still or again?)  Please ping 
your CNN contacts again.  I saw in private email that they thought they had 
fixed this, and in fact it is not fixed

Comment 13

[R.K.Aa.]

dup 52388 is filed regarding linux has a puzzling comment:

"I've thied some of the later windows versions and the table looks OK."

It sure is a mess on the linux builds at least, and the button still doesn't
work. Are windows-builds different?

Comment 14

[ekrock's old account (dead)]

I just looked at CNN.com "September 19, 2000 -- Updated 12:21 
a.m. EDT, 1621 GMT" in yesterday's daily commercial build 
(2000091805 on WinNT 4.0) and I'm still seeing the same layout 
problem. Pinged our contacts at CNN again.

Comment 15

[Claude Gohier]

As of this morning, cnn.com seems to have corrected the layout problem.

Comment 16

[Hixie (not reading bugmail)]

Upon managerial request, adding the "testcase" keyword to 84 open layout bugs that
do not have the "testcase" keyword and yet have an attachement with the word
"test" in the description field. Apologies for any mistakes.

Comment 17

[Bernd]

I think this bug should be reassigned to [e-mail]. The core problem 
comes from nsBlockFrame.cpp. During my regression tests for bug 61772 the 
behaviour improved, so that the input is not over the button anymore, while the 
table still does not reach the 100% width.

[Randell Jesup [:jesup] (needinfo me)]

I think the testcase from my bug 48650 is a little better:

Reassiging to chrisn and moving to evangelism

Comment 21

[Daniel Wester]

We redesigned the CNN.com mainpage a while back and removed this element from 
the page at that time.

Comment 22

[Bob Clary [:bc] (inactive)]

Using 2001-05-30-04/win2k, the testcase looks fine and CNN.com looks ok to me
and per Daniel's comment marking this as fixed.

Comment 23

[Chris Petersen]

Marking verified per last comments
