1248401 - Style is not properly applied on elements added by javascript after XSL transformation

Status: UNCONFIRMED

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

Steps to reproduce:

The attached file contains an xml file, an xsl file, a js file and a htm file. The htm file demonstrates expected behavior.

When opening the xml file, the xsl is properly applied, and the result is identical to the htm file.


Actual results:

When the xml file is opened, the javascript runs correctly, and adds 4 new <div>s to the document. These have a class that causes certain styles to be applied. In particular, they get a red background. However, the default styles for a div are not applied, and so they are treated as inline elements instead of block elements.


Expected results:

I would have expected divs to be block elements unless explicitly declared not in a stylesheet or style attribute, especially when the same DOM tree in a plain htm file demonstrates the expected behavior.
