Attachment: testcase that every browser displays differently

Comment 2

[Jesse Ruderman]

fxtrunk:         (none)
Safari:   ABC E
Opera:     BC E
IE:       ABC    (A has a green background; color:transparent is broken)

Having pfizerpro.com work is equivalent to showing "C" on this testcase, more or less.

Comment 3

[Jesse Ruderman]

Which browser, if any, is correct per CSS specs?  Is this covered by existing CSS conformance tests?

In standards mode (the attached test case is in quirks mode), IE 8 shows ABCDE with A and D being black.

Attachment: testcase in standards mode

IE8 in standards mode matches Opera, then.  IE is the only browser whose behavior depends on the document mode here.

This is covered by the spec, and I believe the Firefox 3.6+ behavior is correct.

I sent Pfizer a note.  What's the best way to contact other browser vendors?

Comment 9

[Drew Ruderman]

Windows versions:
Google Chrome shows: ABC E (all in blue)
IE8 (64-bit) shows: ABCDE (A-C Blue; DE Black, A Green background)

I contributed a reftest (invalid-url-handling.xhtml) to the CSS 2.1 test suite.

Thanks, dbaron!  I guess this is a pfizerpro.com tech evang bug now.

Comment 12

[Jesse Ruderman]

dbaron added the reftest in 
http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/ab6e1ab7d3d8 and filed bug 541434 to make more of it pass.
