125513 - Edit this page - editor's version should be identical to gecko's

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 57757

(SeaMonkey :: Composer, defect)

Description

[Håkan Waara]

If I choose "Edit Page" on this page, everything except one thing looks
identical. Editor doesn't obey the inline stylesheet, that says links should be
gray.

The links are instead default blue - but this is wrong. Editor shouldn't mess
with my page, I want it to look the way it's specified to look.

Kin says this is something I should take up with cmanske. I'm being told it was
some old change, but I think this is a bug, not a feature anyhow. No other
homepage editor that supports CSS does this.

do the links show up properly in the preview tab?

what I told hwaara was that I recall there being a bug where we had to specify 
link colors to get them to show up visually. I recall some layout change that 
caused this.

I also brought up the point that without any visual clue that it is a link, the 
user would not be able to tell it's a link in composer since the cursor does not 
change when hovering over the link?

To answer brade's question, probably not since it's defined in 
EditorOverride.css.
