233897 - Firefox does not handle screen resize properly when using it inside an RDP session

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 62395

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Juan Rivera]

User-Agent:       
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8

When the screen size of the session changes, Firefox does not reflect these
changes. The problem is that you see some components of the window been
truncated like the google search textbox.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Here is how you can reproduce the problem.

Open the browser and maxime it in your local machine (requires Windows XP).

Then go to another machine and open an RDP session to your Windows XP machine.
But use a lower resolution than the one in your Windows XP console. For example
if your console is 1024x768, use 800x600 or 640x480.

One you log in, Firefox still think that the resolution is 1024x768 and the
window layout does not show up properly. One common thing you see is the google
search toolbar been truncated.


Expected Results:  
Firefox should handle the windows message that tells it that the window screen
size change and its layout should reflect these changes.

You can reproduce this bug by using a normal desktop. Same behavior on Seamonkey
- duping to bug 62395.
