197667 - sidebar name list becomes bottom-justified

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Other Applications :: ChatZilla, defect)

Description

[Anthony Foiani]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030312
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030312

It seems that the sidebar gets confused about where to scroll to,
and what to display there, switching between channels.  Bug present

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. /server irc.mozilla.org
2. /join #mozilla
   large number of users populate the sidebar.
3. /join #chatzilla
   small number (less than one screenful, probably important)
   populate sidebar
4. switch back to #mozilla.
5. scroll down the list of names a bit,
6. select one of the users down the list.
7. switch back to #chatzilla.  
Actual Results:  
Short lists of users are displayed at bottom of sidebar, instead
of near top.

Expected Results:  
Short user lists (less than a screenful) should probably be displayed
top-aligned in the sidebar.

Reproduced on 1.3 final, chatzilla 0.8.23 (couldn't get 0.8.24 to
install on either OSX or Linux!).  Reproduced on Linux (RH8.0 +
updates) and Mac OS X (10.2.4).

(And yes, I know that install on OSX is disabled on purpose
right now; I was just explaining why I hadn't tried it with the
latest-and-greatest, especially as there were some fixes in 0.8.24
regarding name sidebar display.)

Reopening bug.

I *think* this is a bug in the Mozilla listbox code (since in 1.5 release, I get
the users too high up, mousewheel fixes it), and should either be moved / dupped
to the correct component or bug, or marked INVALID, since there is nothing wrong
with what ChatZilla's doing.

Although Mozilla has been fixed for 1.7a this patch will fix the problem when
installing current versions of Chatzilla on earlier versions of Mozilla.

Looks fine, and works in my test Mozilla 1.5.
