User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20030306 Camino/0.7 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20030306 Camino/0.7 &sup1 does not properly display in camino. its appearance is way too small. to get it to appear "normally," of readable size, one must fiddle with its font size. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. anywhere that accepts html tags, type in &sup1 for use as a footnote. 2. view your html page. 3. i created a test page called test.html with the following code. <html> <head> </head> <body> here is the body. here is the superscript test. text ¹ </body> </html> 4. I viewed it in Camino (version stated above; it did not display properly); Safari 1.0 (v85) (it displayed properly); Mac IE 5.2.2 (5010.1) (it did not display properly in this version, but Microsoft is no longer updating/supporting it); and Internet Explorer 6.0.2800.1106 for Windows (it displayed properly). Actual Results: The superscript appears very small, almost illegible, in Camino. Expected Results: Make the superscript appear larger. See if any other html entities are affected; i.e., check and test that other html entities display properly. If there is a problem with ¹ there may be a problem with other html entities.
Sorry, (1) subject should have stated: html superscript does not properly display ¹ ( I left off the ; ) (2) under Steps to Reproduce, Step #1 should have stated: 1. anywhere that accepts html tags, type in ¹ for use as a footnote ( I left off the ; ) (3) For the OS version I am using, it didn't allow me to specify, but I am using Mac OS X 10.2.
what does this do in moz1.5b? sounds like a mozilla bug, not camino.
reporter, could I bother you to attach an html document to this bug that is diplaying the problem? thx in advance
