Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: French, defect)

Description

[Pierre Chanial]

hovering on any article in the home page change the text into blue. It does not
so with opera and ns4.x.
I have seen this bug since... well... I have seen that behavior for ages.
Le Monde is one of the most important newspaper in France.

I put this bug in tech evangelism, thought a proper analysis of the problem
should be done.

mmm, I think this is done my purpose... the source shows :
<a ... ><div...> article </div></a> so mozilla takes everything as a link...
its seems to be a stupid thing (tm) to me (and its also invalid :), but I dont
see where is the evangelism bug... unless they dont really want to do that,
which I cant really tell since I can only check with mozilla right here... anyone ?

I got an answer from the webmmaster. It's not a bug, it's a feature. Sorry for
the pain. I thought it was an evangelism bug because I did not see it in opera
6.1 identified as itself and n4.x. IE displays the same as mozilla.
-> INVALID
