Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Jerry]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3.1) Gecko/20030425
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3.1) Gecko/20030425

the webmaster/gamemaster have enabled the HTML Helper tools that are primarely
MSIE/Word tools I think.  They bring up list boxes for fonts, links etc...but
with my mozilla it shows the tools properly..but will not allow me to write in
the test box for making my in game message or in game forum post.  My older
version of mozilla didnt even show these but when I upgraded to 1.3.1 they
became visable and then made it so I can not reply/write to messages or post.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Opened reply/compose/post links
2.HTML Helper tools displays at top of form box
3.not able to have access to text box....

Actual Results:  
Inability to write any text in form fields.

Expected Results:  
either to not show it(from ecperience with older version), or the ability to use
the tools as MSIE does and above all else to at least have access to Text box on
compose/reply/post form even if the tools dont/didnt work.

does not block Mozilla development

the page requires logging in.  can you save the page that doesn't work and
attach it here? (Create a New Attachment)

Owner of site made changes so it will recognize if a browser is other then MSIE
and then will not display those HTML Helper tools as such..it works for me that
way...I dont know if others will experience the same "actions" if another site
decides to try using those tools developed by M$ Gates Inc. for use wiht  MSIE.

Thanks...and since they have fixed it, I cannot save page at the moment...but
will try to do so from my windows platform for your review.

HTML Helper tool made for MSIE not allowing mozilla to write to a form/text
box.

When you reported this, one problem was bug 256932.  That has been fixed, but
the IE version would still broken because it tries to access IFRAME.document
when it should be accessing IFRAME.contentDocument
<http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-HTML/html.html#ID-50708718>

But since they already have a version that works in Mozilla, it's all a bit moot.
