125319 - directly viewing images have wierd margins

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 136002

(Core :: Layout, defect, P4)

Description

[Jeremy M. Dolan]

This has been around a long time. When you directly view an image, like my
desktop screencap in the URL above, the margins are very insonsistant. Size your
window so the image doesn't fit entirely width/height wise.

The top and left margins are fine. This is why it isn't very noticable. Those
are the two you see the most. Now scroll to the bottom right.

The bottom margin is too big. About double the size of the top and left.

The right margin doesn't exsist. It's quite ugly seeing the image edge up
against the scrollbar like that.

I'm not sure if layout is the right place for this, but i'm not sure who owns
this.  I don't know anything about the code that builds up the document to
display a single image.  Over to layout for further triage.

This is affecting certain web applications, so upping severity. Made a differant
case which window.open's an image, but, because of Mozilla's goofy margins, ends
up having to use scrollbars where it shouldn't and not all of the image is visable.

This is quite annoying on a certain site where I was having this problem, due to
this new case retargeting might be in order. IE and 4.x work fine on that page.

One more thing, you'll notice, on the test case, you only need to enlarge the
window vertically to make both scrollbars go away, since that's where the overly
large margin is. Both dimentions of the image are obscured by them until you do.
