1681375 - Chrome seems to force empty contenteditables to have some height, while Firefox may not

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Layout: Text and Fonts, defect, P2)

Description

[Thomas Wisniewski [:twisniewski]]

Attachment: testcase.html

In the attached test-case, Firefox gives the empty div a zero height, while Chrome seems to force it to have a height because it is contenteditable (without contenteditable, it also lays out with zero height).

As seen on webcompaat.com, without this "forced height", the comment form on support.oppo.com breaks, as the actual (trasparent) comment box has no height, and so cannot actually be seen.
