26584 - position: fixed DIV displays copy of HTML document and junk instead of DIV content

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 4209

(Core :: CSS Parsing and Computation, defect, P3)

Description

[Myk Melez [:myk] [@mykmelez]]

Overview Description: 

When I place '<DIV STYLE="position: fixed;">blah</DIV>' in an HTML document,
"blah" does not display in the DIV.  Instead, a copy of the HTML document
appears, along with some junk that usually includes a large black area and some
messy reproduction of the mozilla toolbar.  If I switch to another desktop and
switch back I get even more of a mess in that DIV: the entire mozilla toolbar
plus the pull-down menus above it (but excluding the top level of pull down
menus).

Actual results:

Copy of HTML document and junk appears within fixed position DIV.

Expected Results: 

Content within DIV tag appears within fixed position DIV.

Build Date & Platform Bug Found: 

Linux 2000-02-03-08

Additional Builds and Platforms Tested On: 

none

Additional Information: 

<DIV STYLE="position: absolute;">blah</DIV> works fine.
<DIV STYLE="position: fixed; left: 100px; top: 100px; width: 200px; height:
200px;">blah</DIV> also doesn't work.

It could be a dup of bug 26209. Reassigned to Troy.

This is a dup of bug 4209: note that putting a background-color in the style for 
the DIV fixes it.

Confirming this is a duplicate.  The test cases are essentially the same.
