Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

Description

[Wilfried Eull]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; de-AT; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020530
BuildID:    2002053012

The side (content-area) will not shown properly, after selecting "home" button
in navigation area. You will see a horizontal scroll bar, which shouldn't be the
case (if You make the width of Mozilla to about 810 pixels).
I've noticed that behaviour on an aother PC under windows 2000 too.
To correct the behaviour, I select "view/zoom" and choose some other setting.
Then I switch back to the initial setting (100 percent). After that, the site
will shown properly.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Please go to the web site http://www.go-irish.de
2. Set the width of Your Mozilla to about 810 pixels
3. The site should be shown properly (no horizontal scroll bar)
4. Press "Home" button at the navigation area (left side)


Actual Results:  The formatting of the content-area changes, You should see a
horizontal scroll bar

Expected Results:  The formatting of the content side should not change

On the content side there is a box (right side with a light blue background).
This box looks totally other than on any other web browser I'v tried (e.g. Opera
6, Internet Explorer 6).

The behaviour of the box on the content area was my bug. I missed to declare the
width of the box in the <TABLE ... > Tag. Other browsers obvious tolerate this,
but not Mozilla.
I've corrected that.
