885184 - Background Colors don't edit, image sizes don't change

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 861446

(SeaMonkey :: Composer, defect)

Description

[Jeffrey Woodin]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:17.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/17.0 SeaMonkey/2.14.1 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20121129191217

Steps to reproduce:

First, SeaMonkey apparently updated to 2.14.1 without even asking me!! Then...
1. I Opened a previous version of a page, found here:
http://carolsplaceandtheeatery.com/misc/2013/2013FathersDay.html
2. I then went to edit this page and change the background color. 


Actual results:

No matter what it did it stayed the red of the original page. I had a further issue trying to simply edit the image size of the image on the page (see below)


Expected results:

Background color should have changed to what I set it too. I then created a new page and copy/pasted what was on the original page to the blank page. I could then edit the background color, BUT not edit the size of the image on the page! It's like once a page is save you can't edit it!

I should add too, when you go to save a new page now ".html" or ".htm" are NOT added as file extensions. You apparently have to do than manually now.

I found there was an update to 2.17.1 and I installed it. I seem to still have the same problem.

Here is the "new" page: http://carolsplaceandtheeatery.com/misc/2013/2013CookingWithKids-test.html

The actual image size of the new image on the new page is 607 x 830. The old image on the old page 690 x 835. I found something interesting the html code though, DOUBLE image sizes, see below:

The html code from the original page for the original image:
<img alt="" src="http://carolsplaceandtheeatery.com/misc/2013/2013FathersDayW.60.jpg" style="border: 0px solid ; width: 690px; height: 835px;">

The html code 
<img alt="" src="http://carolsplaceandtheeatery.com/misc/2013/2013CookingWithKids.60.jpg" style="border: 0px solid ; width: 690px; height: 835px;" border="0" height="830" width="607">

…..why is the old image size not being replaced, and just the new size "added on" to the html code?

Not sure what is going on, but I need to get get the fixed version of this new page up. Going to have to use the (very) old version of SeaMonkey on my old Mac desktop (OS X 10.4) to edit this page.

I just used View "HTML Source" and manually edited the code to take out the extra image size text that shouldn't be there and re-saved the page. Seems to have worked. But there appears to be a bug with SeaMonkey adding "extra" image size code that it shouldn't.

There appears to be a bug with changing and saving the background color of a page as well. But I did not have time to explore that tonight. Perhaps the issue is related, where SeaMonkey is adding "extra" html code for the background color as well...

Confirming problem present in current 2.17.1 release, but absent in Nightly build
User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/24.0 SeaMonkey/2.21a1
Build identifier: 20130617130045
so it is already fixed, maybe even in upcoming 2.19 release, but setting close date to 2.21 release date

Correction: problem is present in Trunk if "Use CSS styles instead of HTML elements and attributes" unchecked, and absent in 2.17.1 if it is set
