When I open the page I'm about to attach, most of the body appears twice, one
before the other; only the second time, some of the form controls are unlabeled
or invisible. I've got screenshots if you like.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:




No idea what's causing this so I picked Layout, sorry...
Also occurs with Mozilla 1.6.

Strange. Moving the the call to checkLayoutTagsDisplay () on lines 611-613 up
before <span id="rsssetup"> makes the duplicate controls go away. (I'm on Linux,
so you can change OS to all.)

Here's a much smaller test case.

Attachment: A still smaller test case.

A few more changes (d'oh, of course there's no document.style.display, and
document.bogus.bogus works just as well). I think this is pretty close to
minimal.

==> block/inline

dupe of bug 141386 or bug 147316?

Comment 6

[Tim De Pauw]

FYI: Removing the obsolete <span> on line 339 fixed it. That should help, I guess.

Marking as duplicate of bug 147316 since it looks similar and the problem hasn't
been occurring for a while.
