227642 - iframes don't render

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 225037

(Core :: Layout: Images, Video, and HTML Frames, defect)

Description

[Mark Slater]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.6b) Gecko/20031205 Firebird/0.7+ (Oxs G7 SSE optimized)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.6b) Gecko/20031205 Firebird/0.7+ (Oxs G7 SSE optimized)

The URL (www.newstoday.com) has three iframes, one for main news, one for
user-submitted news, and the third holds a forum. With recent nightlies, FB only
renders the first (main news) including the flash controls for that iframe, and
seemingly ignoring the other two.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Visit site
Actual Results:  
Site rendered, no crashes, but missing two iframes

Expected Results:  
Display the site with ALL iframes showing.

Had a look at the source of that site and didn't see anything out of the ordinary.

(I'm also using an unofficial 'optimized' version of Firebird, tho I don't think
that should have any impact on the rendering engine)

-> Browser, HTML Frames.

Line 15 of http://www.newstoday.com/docs/contentarea.html :
body	{ overflow:hidden; }

All the children of body are positioned resulting in a zero height body and
then the above rule makes us clip everything.  As I said in bug 225037 comment 2,
the current behaviour does not make much sense, there must be a better way of
doing this and still be compliant...
