22690 - Wild reflow in first <synopsis> when window resized

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 22684

(Core :: Layout, defect, P3)

Description

[Sean Richardson]

Overview:
After the [Toggle Style] button is pressed to change the display of the
list of books to include cover illustrations and synopses (in XML <synopsis>
elements), resizing the window causes the text inside the first synopsis
(for "On the Road" by Kerouac) to reflow wildly.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. View the page at the URL.
2. Click on the [Toggle Style] button.
3. Observe the synopsis for "On the Road" while resizing the browser window.

Actual Results:
The test inside the first <synopsis> jumps around, as do the h. and v.
scrollbars for the synopsis, when the window is resized horizontally,
vertically, or both at the same time. The view of the synopsis returns
to the beginning, as do the scrollbars, once the resizing stops.

Expected Results:
None of that.

Tested with:
1999-12-25-08-M13 nightly binary on Windows NT 4.0sp3

Oops. This bug is a DUP of bug 22684; the top-left-and bottom-right
text boxes do indeed exchange content back and forth while resizing.
The only new information here is the bit about the scrollbars - adding to the
original bug.

Resolving as a DUP of bug 22684.
