Remove <http://mozilla.org/images/mozilla-16.png>.  Remove references to that
from all bugzilla.mozilla.org pages.  This is a 0-byte (0 height, 0 width) icon.  

NOTE:  The cited <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/query.cgi> page is only one
example of several bugzilla.mozilla.org pages that refer to this micro-image. 
Indeed, every bugzilla.mozilla.org page that I checked refers to it.   

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:





Often, these micro-images are used for spyware.  Is this what Mozilla.org wants
people to think (that it plants spyware)?

1.  View any bug report (e.g., the report for this bug) or other page at this
site.  

2.  Go to the Mozilla menu bar and select View > Page Info.  

3.  On the Page Info window, select the Media tab.  

4.  On the Media tab select http://mozilla.org/images/mozilla-16.png.  

The properties displayed show
  Size:        0 KB (0 bytes)
  Dimensions:  Width: 0px, Height: 0px

hm... I can reproduce the 0 KB part, but not the 0px dimensions one...

Comment 4

[David E. Ross]

Upon viewing the page source of an affected page, I determined that this is the
icon used to mark tabs and bookmarks.  However, the icon does not show in the
address area on the Navigation Toolbar.  

I can view the icon directly by going to its URL, in which case I see both size
and dimensions as non-zero.  Thus, I will change my bug report to indicate
Product: Browser and Component: Page Info.  

Re comment #3:  What do you see for Dimensions?  

Comment 5

the correct values (16x16 px)

Page Info:

Size:      0 KB (0 bytes)
Dimension: Width: 16px, Height: 16px

I´ve got multiple tabs open, and some, like tinderbox, or checkins, don´t show
an icon in the Locationbar, nor in their Tab in the Tabbar. If I´m switching
from one of these tabs to the tab of SearchBugs, the icon in the Location bar is
replaced by with the default icon displayed for websites without icon. Reload
restores it.

Maybe your installed extension Prefbar breaks Page Info? (Bug 261662)
Can you test in a new profile without extension?

Comment 7

[David E. Ross]

Further testing indicates that the Dimensions are zeros if image preferences are
set to "originating server only" and have correct values if preferences are set
to "Accept all images".  The latter preferences still leave the Size at zero.  

Note that I cannot eliminate the PrefBar extension merely by creating a new
profile.  Instead, I would have to remove PrefBar entirely.  If PrefBar is
installed, a new profile will automatically have the default PrefBar settings.  

I am changing the Summary to reflect discoveries since I originally submitted
this bug report.  

Comment 8

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

Note that we just get the size from the cache entry...

Comment 9

[David E. Ross]

Re: comment #8.  Does this indicate a bug in how cache sizes are determined or
reported?  (Is a new bug report needed?)  Or is zero size intentional for icons?  

I should have changed the Severity to Minor when I changed the Product.  I am
doing that now.

Comment 11

[David E. Ross]

Reference to bug 19492 in comment #10 is incorrect.  It should be bug 195492.
