235896 - Navigation bar in mail.yahoo.com streches across page sometimes.

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Andrew Z]

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

When I check my mail at mail.yahoo.com, the navigation bar on the side of the
page sometimes spans across the screen.  The folder icons go where they are
supposed to, but the links that designate the folders span off the screen to the
right.  Other than that, the page seems to load fine.  Clicking on a link to a
new page takes care of it for that instance.  Seems to appear when I move
between tabs and/or windows.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1.longin to mail.yahoo.com
2.wait for page to load (every page except login has navigation bar)
3.

Actual Results:  
The navigation bar stretches across the entire screen, forcing the entire page
to expand to the right.

Expected Results:  
Kept the navigation bar in it's place to the left of the window.

Was using the Smoke theme, but still does it.
Have never seen it happen in IE.
Unable to cross-test in other versions/platforms (yet)

WFM: build 20040221, seems like (based on other bug reports) that this was fixed
after 0.8...
