270192 - table rows are not removed from canvas when javascript sets display to 'none'

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 97506

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Goetz Heller]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041108 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041108 Firefox/1.0

A table has two columns in its first rows, with a row following which has one
cell with colspan set to 2. This row is to be exposed/hidden by means of
JavaScript code.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Check the box at the bottom of the page. A new row is displayed. (The
appearance of the row is altered, too, but this bug is reported in another file.)
2. Uncheck the box.

Actual Results:  
The area occupied by a row previously desplayed is cleared but does not
disappear itself when its display style is set to 'none' by JavaScript code.

Expected Results:  
The area previously occupied by the row should collapse.

In IE 6, the behaviour is as desired.
