101951 - Datek main page initial layout is bad on Mac - wrong font size

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

I stumbled across this while trying to find a better test case for bug 100117.
This works correctly on Windows. On the Mac it doesn't seem to get the font size
correct on the first load. If you click on any of the items the size is set
correctly on any additional draws. Images coming.

This problem is related to their js:

if (agt.indexOf("mac")!=-1) {
	var macStyle='<STYLE type="text/css"><!--span{position:absolute;
font-family:Arial; font-size:12pt; width:120px}#leftlinks{color:000066;
text-decoration:none;}--></STYLE>';
document.write(macStyle);
}


This font-size declaration is applied to both NS and IE MAC OS X and OS 9 clients.

If I disable the script tag, the style tag in the document will apply the 9pt
font-size declaration.

Datek has merged with Ameritrade. It no longer uses the left side menu that
caused this bug.
