41798 - Resizing Chatzilla window does not auto scroll text

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Other Applications Graveyard :: ChatZilla, defect, P3)

Description

[WD]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; m16) Gecko/20000606
BuildID: 2000060622

When the Chatzilla window is made smaller, the bottom of the message window text
is not visible. (The most recent messages)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Chatzilla
2.Join a chatroom and wait for the message window to start to fill
3.Resize the Chatzilla window to make it smaller

Actual Results: The most recent messages on the bottom are pushed off the window
as it becomes smaller.

Expected Results: The last line of text is always visible.

The user should never have to manually move the scrollbar down to make the last
message visible after resizing the window. It should be scrolled automatically.

I'm not sure this is possible.  I agree it would be a good thing, but xul
doesn't provide an onresize to windows.  Marking invalid for now.  If anyone
knows something different, please say so.

Reopening bug, since it is valid, even though architectural problems make it 
hard to implement.

Reassigning to nobody to keep this bug off rginda's radar.

it looks like there is an onresize event for the window now.
