Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[info]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

The visibility of the phantom border happens randomly. It depends on the font
sizes (CSS) and/or on the actual text zoom of the browser. If it is visible, it
looks like if a solid 1px border would be specified for the fixed element
(color: background color of the fixed element or white)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
check out the submitted URL:
1. look for a white line cutting the 2nd picture
2. scroll to see if more pictures get cut
3. if none of the placed images is cut by a white line, try different text zooms

Actual Results:  
some pictures get 'cut' by the phantom bottom border of the fixed div in the
background, some not.


This is additional demo stuff to part 2 of reported Bug #295838

Reporter, can you try with a firefox 1.1alpha (Deer Park) release and verify
that this problem is indeed gone? Thanks!
