315856 - RSS feeds in HTML format do not show font size adjustments when switching messages

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(MailNews Core :: Feed Reader, defect)

Description

[Frank Fridlund]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051107 Firefox/1.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla Thunderbird version 1.5 (20051025)

This is a problem only in the RSS messages in HTML format.  Thunderbird uses the font size as specified by the page when a new feed message is loaded, instead of using its own size.  Regular e-mail (regardless of format) and text based RSS feeds functions as normal.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add a HTML based feed to the News & Blogs account (like Asa's feed above), and allow it to load messages
2. Select one message and click in the message preview
3. Hit Ctrl-+ about 3 times.
4. Select another message in the same folder
5. Hit Ctrl-+ one time

Actual Results:  
Step 4:  The font size returns to normal
Step 5:  The font size increases a lot, as if to jump out of the window.

Expected Results:  
Step 4: The font size should retain the same size as in Step 3, so that step 5 isn't as dramatic of a change.

That particular feed doesn't validate, and so exhibits the same problem subscribing as seen at bug 315600, bug 313422, bug 297569.

But with a Craig's List feed, size adjustments are maintained: 
TB 1.6a1-1109, TB 1.5rc1, Win2K.

The problem is still valid in Thunderbird 2

Frank (or Mika) it seems that this issue is solved in latest Tb 3.0 rc1: can you confirm?
