Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 310593

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7

I upgraded from 1.0.6 to 1.0.7 last night. This morning while doing some
maintenance work I noticed that the title attribute no longer results in a
tooltip if it is in an IMG tag or an A tag wrapped around an IMG

Look at the images at the bottom of the example URI w this report. All the
tooltips worked before the upgrade, and still work in Safari. I modified the
first one in the row at the bottom one to show that neither A wrapped around an
IMG with a title nor A with a title wrapped around IMG work any more.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.load page using title attribute in A tag wrapped around IMG or in IMG
2.mouseover image(s)
3.tooltip with contents of title attribute should but does not appear

Actual Results:  
tooltip appears for everything else that has a title attribute, but not for
images nor anchors wrapped around images

Expected Results:  
mouseovers should have resulted in tooltip appearing containing contents of
title attribute.

WFM in Firefox 1.5 beta 2 (on Linux), all images show title attribute as tooltip

According to bug 310593, this may be caused by the Google Toolbar extension.

removing Google Toolbar extention and restarting FireFox 
made that problem go away
