Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[John Smith]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de; rv:1.9.0.4) Gecko/2008102920 Firefox/3.0.4
Build Identifier: http://www.mozilla.com/products/download.html?product=firefox-3.0.5&os=win&lang=de

After update from 3.04 to 3.05 the most pages are displayed a bit different but some of them are not more usable at all, i.e. frame content is "out of frame cage", so some frames have suddenly scroll bars but there is more than enough place to display the whole frame properly.

My environment: Win XP, monitor resolution 1600x1200.

I've tested the problemtatic site (www.officialpokerrankings.com) with IE 7, it looks the same as in Firefox 3.04. Then, I've installed Firefox 3.04 over my existing 3.05, now the site looks fine again. Seem to happen in 3.04 only.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set up relativly large monitor resolution (tested with 1600x1200)
2. Go to http://www.officialpokerrankings.com
3. Select some random player and show results from last 120 days
Actual Results:  
The bottom middle box with tournament results have scroll bars and can't be viewed to 100% no matter how hard you'd try..

Expected Results:  
The bottom middle box is showed without any scrollbars and can be displayed in full required width as in version 3.04.

Firefox 3.1 will be the next version. Can you retest with a nightly build to make sure that this isn't already fixed? And then please test with a new profile.

Few hours after bug submission the same problem with broken layout was there again. Now, I'm using a new profile with my old profile data and it works again. I'm going to update to 3.05 and check whether it works as well. Thanks for your help!

After udate to 3.05 (via Firefox search for updates) everything is still fine.
I have 1 root + 1 restricted acount, the broken layout was issue of both users in 3.05.

Now in version 3.05 I have this behaviour:
Restricted account with new profile => OK
Restricted account with old profile => broken
Root account with old profile => OK (update via Firefox fixed profile?)

Seemed to be broken profile + not 100% clean update causing the problem. I think testing of nightly build is not more necessary and this one can be closed, thanks again!
