the document.styleSheets list.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
   Save the attachement locally.
   Open the attachement.

ACTUAL RESULTS
   document.styleSheets.item(0) will return null.

EXPECTED RESULTS
   Results should be consistent with other protocols, e.g. HTTP.

Attachment: Simple and self explanatory testcase. Output should be green, not red. Make sure to save the file locally when testing this!

Nice to have, but hardly high priority. Marking Future.

P5, -> DOM Style

Comment 4

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

I'm seeing red for both file:// and http://, now that we filter out non-css
content (we used to parse the 404 page into a sheet).

Is this bug still relevant?

Comment 5

[Hixie (not reading bugmail)]

Yes, the bug hasn't changed, it's just become more serious since we also fail
for HTTP now, as you point out.
