Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 187435

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Ryan Forsythe]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.9) Gecko/20050711 Firefox/1.0.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.9) Gecko/20050711 Firefox/1.0.5

http://www.cs.uoregon.edu/~ryanf/index.cgi seems to expose a problem in Mac
Firefox. The scrollbars for a textarea enclosed in a "visibility: hidden" div
remain visible -- all other content in the div is hidden properly. This issue
only happens on Mac Firefox -- Windows & GTK Firefoxes are fine. Deer Park beta
1 behaves the same way. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Build web page with a textarea enclosed in a "visiblilty: hidden" div.
2. Enter enough content in the textarea such that its scrollbars appear.

Actual Results:  
The textarea's scrollbars remained visible while other elements in the hidden
div were hidden properly.

Expected Results:  
All elements within the hidden div should not be visible.

Works on the above (Windows) trunk build.  Can you try with the latest Mac build?
