155012 - Microsoft tactics to make Mozilla look bad

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 150034

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English US, defect)

Description

[Leonard Norrgård]

From Bugzilla Helper:

Microsoft uses a CSS style sheet to make Mozilla look bad.

Specifically, the style sheet at
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/css/WinNN.css includes this code:

BODY
{
    MARGIN: -10px 0px 0px -10px
}

which Internet Explorer doesn't honor. Mozilla does, which makes the page render
partly outside the visible area (10 pixels of the left and top margins are not
visible).



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to specified URL.

Actual Results:  Page partially off visible area.

Expected Results:  The result is per the Microsoft supplied CSS style sheet.

However, IE isn't affected as it doesn't honor the offset.

[timeless]

note that there is at least one bug reported against browser for this sort of 
behavior, but it'd be best if we can convince ms not to generate content like 
this :)

timeless: are you dreaming? I still wait for the day, when MS adds a
a[href]{display:none;}
