Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021207 Phoenix/0.5

div align=center tag includes an image which is a link. The area next to the
image is active, the image itself is active, too. Crosshair-Cursor is displayed
correctly outside proper active area but not inside.

Looks fine in IE and Opera, but not in Mozilla and Phoenix

(Please excuse my bad English...)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Phoenix or Mozilla (Windows or FreeBSD)
2. Open http://oui-ja.de/entry.php?id=00706
3. Move cursor over image and next to image

Actual Results:  
Active area where no active-link-area is supposed to be.

Expected Results:  
Show only an active area above the image

You have submitted a Phoenix-specific bug, but you are mentioning in the bug
report that you have tested it in Mozilla with the same results (and thus it's
NOT a Phoenix-specific bug!).

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212 Used for this
test
The cursor issue is caused by the following CSS in Mozilla's UA stylesheet:

*|*:-moz-any-link img, img[usemap], object[usemap] {
  border: 2px solid;
  cursor: pointer;
}

This sets the cursor to "pointer" on any image inside a link....  This could be 
rewritten as:

*|*:-moz-any-link img, img[usemap], object[usemap] {
  border: 2px solid;
}

img[usemap], object[usemap] {
  cursor: pointer;
}

Since we already set "cursor" on *|*:-moz-any-link in ua.css and that should 
inherit down to any images inside the link...

Of course given that rule all the rest of our behavior is correct; the only 
question is whether the rule should stay as-is.

As for the active region issue, the image is set to be a block and the entire 
block box (with width equal to the <body>) is thus inside the <a>.... and 
should all be active.

patch

r+sr=dbaron if you move 'cursor: pointer' into the rule below rather than
creating a new rule
Good catch... checked in with just the move to the existing rule.
