Attachment: testcase

Basically the same as the url testcase, which is fine, but without the image.

2004092221-trunk/Linux+gtk2+xft has also this problem.
It's not dependent on OS.

Attachment: Smaller Testcase

Mozilla Nightly 2004092306 on Windows XP
Here's a smaller testcase.

Comment 6

[Ronald Tilby]

I've narrowed the regression window.
Windows Mozilla Trunk Nightly 2004091105 is ok.
Windows Mozilla Trunk Nightly 2004091306 fails the testcases.

The mozilla-win32-installer.exe file at
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/nightly/2004-09-12-07-trunk/
fails to run for me after download, so I wasn't able to narrow window further.

this might be a regression from 258118

I meant bug 258118

Comment 9

[Bernd]

backing out the patch for bug 258118 fixes the smaller testcase.

Comment 10

[Hermann Schwab]

same time of regression, similar testcase and fix, waiting for review:
Bug 260938  	mozdev's pages' middle-column drops below left column
same time of regression
Bug 260963  	bad rendering of the web page

[Robert O'Callahan (:roc) (email my personal email if necessary)]

This is probably fixed by my big margin-collapse/clear patch in bug 209694.

Comment 14

[Asa Dotzler [:asa]]

ROC, we really do need to fix this for a5. Any chance of a fix independent of
your big patch at bug 261153. Or is it planned to land bug 261153?

Comment 15

[Hermann Schwab]

there is a fix waiting in 
Bug 260938 	[fix] mozdev's pages' middle-column drops below left column
In Bug 260938 comment 6 RoC told the fix is working, in Bug 260938 comment 12 he
did his own rewiew ;-)
> minusing because this work is completely subsumed by the work in bug 209694.

Comment 16

[Robert O'Callahan (:roc) (email my personal email if necessary)]

The fix in bug 260938 is a complete band-aid. I discovered the problems were
much deeper and took another tack. I don't know what that fix will do. We can
check it in if you want to find out :-)

Why is this bug critical for 1.8a5, by the way?

Comment 17

[Asa Dotzler [:asa]]

This is a regression that will cause a lot of people to avoid using and testing
this release. We're already skirting the low end of download numbers necessary
for good talkback and regression finding. 

Comment 18

[Asa Dotzler [:asa]]

sucking it up for 1.8a5. 

Comment 19

[Per Ångström]

For the record: this bug is still present in 1.8a5.

Thanks.
