124647 - "float:right" looks messy inside <span>-section

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout, defect, P4)

Description

[Thomas Goerlich]

images that are placed inside a "<span>" area will not be displayed at the size
and position as expected when formatted with style="float:right".

structural example #1:
<span>
     <img style="float:right" src="foo.jpg">
</span>

structural example #2:
<span>
     <span style="float:right;">
           <img src="foo.jpg">
     </span>
</span>



i assembled a small demonstration-site (see link above). 

you may have to press "reload" to see the effects.

tried both with mozilla 0.9.8 (win32) and nightly 20020209 (win32)

thanks for doing mozilla. it's a fabulous toy.

I can reproduce the problems on the second and fourth page.

2002-02-08-00, Win32, MathML/SVG.

Can reproduce all three testcases, 2002-02-08-03, Windows 98.

Comment 3

[Pete Boyd]

I can reproduce the problem in all cases. [Mozilla 2002020908, Windows 2000]

i did some additional testing on linux:

with 0.9.4, i can reproduce only case #2 (but the image is completely invisible)

with 0.9.8 (build 2002020415), case #2 now looks equal to the win32-screenshot.

the other testcases look okay.

This is a dup.. I will hunt for the original....

Comment 6

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

Hm.. is the testcase still available?  I forget what the exact HTML code was....

Comment 7

[Thomas Goerlich]

sorry, tescase is up again
(server moved, guess i forgot to load the testfiles up)

http://www.schnappmatik.de/mozilla/

seems to be fixed in the meantime, anyway! (1.0 win32)

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

yep, worksforme on a current linux build as well.  Please reopen if this
reappears at some point...
