293163 - Menu see-through at Equipment A to Z > Fillers > submenu

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Firefox :: Menus, defect)

Description

[Ronni Sweet]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en) AppleWebKit/312.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/312
Build Identifier: Fire Fox 1.0.1

Contact Mozilla and complain. I'm serious. Mozilla introduced a bug in 
OSX Panther versions of Firefox. Jaguar is fine. Looks like they 
attempted to take a rendering shortcut to make their browser look faster 
than it really is (which is quite slow in most cases). Camino, which 
uses the same engine, but apparently untweaked for false speed, is fine. 
Netscape 7 and 8 are fine. Mozilla is fine. It's just Firefox and it's 
only on Mac OSX Panther.

The bug is not sufficiently bad to make the menu unusable, it just 
introduces transitory bleedthrough on parent levels. The active level is 
fine and the parent goes back to normal once the menu is closed.

Nothing we can do about it and likely Mozilla will deny it's at fault 
unless a CSS or standards "guru" brings it up.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
