27735 - Note about div areas with width:0, height:0 and overflow:hidden.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 11660

(Core :: Layout, defect, P3)

Description

[/\/\arcio Galli]

build:2000021408, win98

I have included the following attributes in the CSS of a div area:
opacity:.5
width:0px
height:0px
overflow:hidden

as you can see in the source:

To reproduce the bug:
---------------------

See that we can still see the image. Since width is 0 and height is 0 and 
overflow:hidden, I think it's supposed to clip the entire image to width and 
height = 0. 

in index4.html, opacity is equal to 1.0. And it's working fine. We cannot see 
the image. So I think the problem happens when we set opacity != 1.0 or 0

NOTE:
-----
I have made this, width:0px, height:0px and overlow:hidden, to try to avoid
that RED visual effect when using opacity in WIN98 - bug (16574). And it's 
working. See the original version without this settings:

MORE NOTES: 
----------
With,

click move left some times. And then click more down or top some times. See that 
the old image positions are just repaiting for left and right.

Yes, you're right the problem happens when opacity is involved.

This is a DUP of bug #11660 that says that "clip" should apply to child views.
