Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Core :: XUL, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040113

I have bookmarked http://www.teliamobile.se with the following preferences set:
browser.chrome.load_toolbar_icons	2
browser.chrome.favicons			true

This leads to the text of the bookmark and the site icon not to show at all in
the tree widget. Instead it seems like there is a white box cover the icon and
text. I will attach how it looks with two screenshots of the bookmark item not
selected and selected.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set the preferences according to the above description
2. Bookmark http://www.teliamobile.se  
3. Look at the bookmark in for instance Bookmark Sidebar or Manage Bookmarks

Actual Results:  
Site icon and text not visible.

Expected Results:  
Site icon and text visible.

Also tested on a clean profile and install with Classic, same error there.

The favicon is just too big and there's no image resize support in the tree
widget yet.

Aaah yes, now I understand why it behaves like this. 

The address http://www.teliamobile.se/favicon.ico doesn't really point to an
icon but an error message that is a GIF image, and that is why it shows that
picture as a site icon. And I who searched and searched for a <link> tag or the
favicon.ico file.

I don't think anyone is going to work on this given the plan to remove the XUL "tree" widget (bug 1446335).
