123895 - {ib} CSS only read on initial load - broken on view -use stylesheet

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout: Block and Inline, defect)

Description

[Dale DePriest]

Note netscape 6.1 works but Mozella 0.9.0 build 2002020516 is broken.
I have a xml file with multiple stylsheets:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE PPDF SYSTEM "ppdf.dtd">
<?xml-stylesheet title="no comments" href="nppdf.css" type="text/css" ?>
<?xml-stylesheet alternate="yes" title="comments" href="ppdf.css" 
  type="text/css"?>
<!-- @(#)$Id: ppdf.xml,v 1.1 2002/02/02 01:54:19 daled Exp $ -->

When the page appears the stylesheet is read properly but if I go to the view
menu and select use stylesheet the data is mostly missing, no matter what I
select.  There are a few top level before tags displayed but nothing else.  Even
if I select none.  If I select none the very first time then some of the data
looks ok but the top level ":before" tags mentioned before are interpreted
anyway and after selecting any other format nothing will change the display.

Reporter,

Please provide a reduced test case of this problem with any steps you can
provide. This would help us understanding the issue you described.

Even just a url to the full page in question would help...

Comments in stylesheets are /* comment */ just like in C.  I took the liberty of
adding those to the sheets as seemed needed; this bug is not affected.

To test, just load attachment 68565 [details] (the testcase XML).  Wait for it to load,
then change stylesheets.  Everything disappears except the top-level elements as
Dale says.  Seeing this on linux 2002-02-07-07 nightly build.

Adding 

PPDF { display: block }

to both sheets fixes the problem; looks like more block-inside-inline stuff.

Over to layout.

Adding regression keyword since this test works fine in 6.2.1.

With the sample xml test:
The first PI has a title of "foo" , the second PI has a title of "number"

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/css"  title="foo" href="1.css"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" alternate="yes" title="number"  href="2.css"?>

Selecting "number" from the Use Stylesheet menu (View) will cause the content to
disappear.

Marking nsbeta1-. failure depends on what's being done in the style sheet. May
be related to setting the display type.

Style sheet does not appear to load and the page displays without the CSS.
Sometimes I get a blank page but the page on the site will load if I add the
exact filename of the page to the URIs (index.htm for the first and index.html
for the second URI). The loading of the stylesheet problem seems to be related
to the stylesheet being in a different directory than the Web page over an http
connection. The same relative directory structure when read off my hard drive
(for the first URI above) displays without fault. Pages accessed over http with
the stylesheet in the same directory as the HTML file display normally. This
behavior appeared in recent builds leading up to 0.9.9. My system: Mozilla 0.9.9
on Windows 95 with modem connection.
