20191 - scrolling horks layout w.r.t. forms

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: Layout, defect, P3)

Description

[Warren Harris]

If you scroll down before a page with a lot of forms can finish loading, the
form elements get laid out in random places. I also see text overlapping, etc.
Looks like some synchronization is needed.

Eric, please take a look.

This is known problem with the incremental loading of content and tables
creating and destroying form elements mulitple times. I am not sure what the bug
number is.

Comment 3

[basic]

that would be bug #17829

Comment 4

[Warren Harris]

I don't think so. That bug might aggravate this one, but seems unrelated. There
needs to be synchronization between scrolling the window and updating the
layout. That appears not to be happening.

Passing this on to you Eric, as you wrote nsScrollPortView::ScrollTo.  I'm not
sure if that's relevant code, but it's my best guess (?).
