45578 - Transperant gifs and background color

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout, defect, P3)

Description

[bora123]

Setting the background color of entire table and putting a transperant gif
as one of cell's background image creates absurd discoloration of the image each
time the page is refreshed. Setting the background color of the cell to the
exact same color of the table's background color fixes the discoloration but 
the background color of cell is not rendered exactly same as table's background 
color eventhough they are same.

Is this related to bug 1759?

I am not 100% certain that this is the duplicate of that bug. It works fine
with transperant PNGs. It goes off with transperant GIFs. If you have an 
animated gif on the page, trasperant gif set up as a background image also 
picks one of the scenes from animated gif and render the transperant parts of 
the image with it, if you do not set the background color.

Sounds like a rendering problem, over to Kevin.

Don, sounds like it may be an image palette issue

This bug has been marked "future" because the original netscape engineer working
on this is over-burdened. If you feel this is an error, that you or another
known resource will be working on this bug,or if it blocks your work in some way
-- please attach your concern to the bug for reconsideration.

This works for me.. if you have a test case that shows the problem you seeing..
reopen and attach.  My gif test cases work fine.
