273555 - Browser adds code to prevent site menu entries appearing

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Tom Edwards]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

My menu is meant to include a Downloads link. And it does - view the page
source. However the link fails to appear, even though it has alt text. It does
appear if I view the page in IE and it does appear when I view the copy of the
page on my local computer.

Although the page source appears normal, when I saved the page as a "Web page,
complete" I noticed that among the normal modifications saving a page offline
makes line 23 had had style="display: none;" added, hiding the image.

This bug breaks page display.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Visit attached URL in Firefox - observe lack of "Downloads" link in the site
menu.
2. Visit attached URL in another browser (only tested in IE) - "Downloads" link
is between Media and Forums.
3. Save as a "Web page, complete" through FF and observe the code that has been
added to line 23 in the process: style="display: none;"
Actual Results:  
"Downloads" link is not shown; presumably due code added to line 23 by browser
(style="display: none;") which is not shown in View > Page Source.

Expected Results:  
Shown "Downloads" in the menu, between Media and Forums. Not inserted extra,
harmful code.

I can't reproduce this problem in:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

Do you have any extensions installed that might be modifying your page, e.g. an
ad blocker?

Yes, that's problem. I'd screwed up my adblock filters. Spent about five minutes
making sure I'd covered everything before submitting the bug report - looks like
I failed! :o
