User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040730 Firefox/0.9.1+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040730 Firefox/0.9.1+

i was suprised i coudn't find this in bugzilla because that bug was there
already for some time. If you open the help viewer, you can see that the icons
are messed up at the top. Will attach screenshot in a minute. When i customize
that toolbar, the icons are displayed correct in the panel below.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. open help viewer

Actual Results:  
garbled icons

Expected Results:  
nice fresh icons :)

I think we're having some theme issues. I mailed ben about this to get things
sorted out. It could be possible that this might be connected to the MacOS theme
problem.

Michael, can you reproduce this after restarting Firefox?
If not, did you switch Firefox's theme in the session before?

Comment 4

[Michaël Arnauts]

I'm using the default theme, and i have never installed or used another.
It happens always, i've always seen the help-toolbar messed up.

i guess this should be marked as blocking the tracking bug 244691. (winstripe theme)

rj - gnomestripe is built on linux - it's a set of files that replace files with
the same name on winstripe. 

so gnomestripe = winstripe with a few files replaced.

Moving to new Firefox Help owner.

Michael: do you see this any more?  I haven't seen any problems with Help on
Linux in any recent Firefox builds (aviary branch, that is -- trunk is not a
priority right now).

This *is* just a Linux problem, right?  Somehow Macs got dragged into the
conversation here, and so I'm not sure if this is a Mac problem as well or not.

[Michaël Arnauts]

yes, i still have this problem. 
using Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040908 Firefox/0.10

it still looks like the 20040809 screenshot i attached a while ago.

i have fedora core 2, gnome 2.6

Are you using a clean profile?  Can you test this with a clean profile (i.e.,
remove ~/.mozilla/firefox and restart Firefox)?  I can't reproduce this and
apparently neither can anyone else, so if we can't nail down exactly what the
problem is this bug is in danger of not blocking 1.0 (and for that matter, being
WFM'd).

Comment 12

[Michaël Arnauts]

okay, i just tried cleaning my profile and the help is clean now, that looked
strange to me so i searched further where the problem could be, i finally
narrowed it down to "tabbed browser preferences 0.6.11", that extension seems to
give a lot of bugs (double click on close button opens new tab is another example)

whatever, you can mark this invalid...

Comment 13

[Steffen Wilberg]

Thanks for narrowing it down, Michael.

->INVALID: caused by an extension.

Verified.

as a matter of completeness, the new tbp fixes this:
