Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout: Tables, defect)

Description

[Jeff Meacham]

1. go to www.reeds.com
2. Look at bottom of web page - MSIE for both mac & windows bottom bar is in the 
proper spot
3. In PPEmbed client, the bottom horizontal bar is about 1 screen
length below the proper bottom of the web page, and then there is more empty
space underneath that.
Tested with:
Dual G4 / 500 256 MB Ram using following browsers:
1. PPEmbed 20020520
Compare with:
 Mac OS X MSIE 5.1.4
 IE 6 in Win2000

This problem seems to be from a conflicting height="100%" and height="80%".

Load the attached test case (and gif), and <Shift>-Reload the page about 10
times.  Notice that some of the times the page load the same as IE, and some of
the times it seems to streach vertically.

WFM with the latest trunk build: 2002-09-23-08-trunk on WIN2K. I dont see any 
changes even after reloading many times.

The problem is not fixed. 
Tested on Win2000 with 09_24_08_trunk build
I loaded www.reeds.com page.
On the initial load it's okay. If I shift/reload, the problem is evident.
Confirming bug

The key is shift/reload - not just reload
