Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 422661

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Adrian Boiciuc]

User-Agent:       Opera/9.62 (Windows NT 6.0; U; en) Presto/2.1.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.0.3) Gecko/2008092417 Firefox/3.0.3

If i specify a left, top and right border to a div and that div has alot of text inside it will not show the border or it will show only parts of the border. Also scrolling the page will change the amount of border displayed. (testcase here: http://www.mediaswitch.ro/mozilla/testcase.html)

In some cases where there is alot of text the browser will show some pieces of black left and right borders.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Specify a left border, top border, right border
2. Add text inside; around 161,000 characters or more
3. Scroll the page up and down to see the behavior
Actual Results:  
The page will not display any border at all. After you scroll the page some borders begin to be shown. Sometimes when you select all the text the border will appear. In some cases where there is alot of text the browser will show some pieces of black left and right borders.

Expected Results:  
The browser should just display the borders.

I see the problem in 3.0.3, but it works fine for me in 3.1b2pre, on Linux.

Please try a nightly build and let us know if that fixes the problem.

I just tested with the nightly build and everything looks ok. I also tested on the page i initially found the issue and it`s also ok. So Firefox 3.1 fix the issue. Thank you
