129553 - IFRAME links replacing entire window regardless of target

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout: Images, Video, and HTML Frames, defect)

Description

[Eric Means]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.8) Gecko/20020204
BuildID:    2002020406

Links in IFRAMEs take over the whole window, instead of just loading in the IFRAME.

See bug 107682 for a similar bug (on MacOS).


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://arstechnica.infopop.net/OpenTopic/page?a=tpc&s=50009562&f=51009562&m=3640928593
2. (you may have to create an account (free reg)/login)
3. Hit the Reply button
4. In the IFRAME at the bottom, click any link, for example the Reply button.

Actual Results:  The link will open in the full window.

Expected Results:  The link should open in the IFRAME.

According to the second post in that thread, it works in 0.9.8/OSX.  It does not work correctly in 0.9.8/Windows 2000 Pro SP2.  The only bug I've been able to find that addressed this problem was 107682, here: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=107682

That bug was reported from a Mac running OS9 and later reported to actually be working correctly in that instance, so I suspect this to be a Windows-specific bug.

  When I hit the reply button at the top of the Iframe the link is opened in the 
Iframe itself. Its not opening in the full window. Works for me.
