422688 - text-decoration:line-through ignored on <description>

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Toolkit :: UI Widgets, defect)

Description

Attachment: Testcase

See testcase - I set the style text-decoration:line-through on a <description> element and it doesn't do anything in the current nightlies. In Firefox 2.0.0.12 however it displays a line in the middle of the text correctly.

Work-around is using <html:div> instead of <description> - but that should not be the permanent solution.

Need to find a regression range here

In the case of this particular regression (at least; in 1.6, this works for value= but not for child text nodes, so that's not a regression as I see it) this will probably be fixed when XUL text is rewritten to use nsTextFrameThebes so that it can pick up on other decorations such as text-shadow.

As for workarounds, my preferred workaround is <description><html:span style="

This seems to be fixed on Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; et; rv:1.9.3a5pre) Gecko/20100507 Minefield/3.7a5pre. Both value= and child text node display line-through.

I can still see this issue in Firefox 3.0 but it has been fixed in Firefox 3.5 apparently - works for me then.
