554763 - Textarea resizing handle appears outside of textbox boundary

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 553760

(Core :: Layout: Form Controls, defect)

Description

[Lukas Blakk [:lsblakk] use ?needinfo]

Attachment: focus on the textarea - handle is in the right place

On a google form I use which is a fixed width I can expand the textbox vertically, and I can also go horizontally to a narrower size, not outside of the fixed width.  This makes sense. What doesn't is that the handle is outside of the box when the box is not selected, and inside the box when focus is in the textarea.

Screenshots attached.

Lukas, what's the url for that page?

You can see two resizers there in the second image. One is actually for the anonymous div for the placeholder text. That issue with two resizers appearing should be fixed by bug 553760.

But there's a general problem I think here where the placeholder div isn't aligned in the same location as the regular text.

That's really strange.  Mounir, do you have any idea what's happening there?

Also related is bug 553097, which suggests not actually having a separate anonymous div for the placeholder div.

Neil, how is the resizer attached to the text area frame?

The GfxScrollFrame creates the resizer as its anonymous content, in the same manner as the scrollbars.

I suppose it has been fixed per bug 553760 by using "-moz-resize: none;" for the placeholder div, right ?

According to comment 3, this bug looks very similar to bug 553760 and according to comment 5, the bug was no more reproducible when bug 553760 has been fixed. I guess it's a duplicate.
