57430 - Map not appearing, must reload to see

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout, defect, P3)

Description

I wasn't sure how to component to set this to. Someone suggested

Branch build 2000-10-19-09MN6: NT4

Overview: Problems seeing maps after I search for an address.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start at the Netscape home page (www.netscape.com <http://www.netscape.com>)
2. Click on the 'Maps/Directions' link
3. Scroll down to the "Map an Address" area
4. Type in any address and select the "Map It!" button

Actual Results: No map appears. Select the 'Reload' button and a message appears
"The page to be loaded has form elements with post data. Do you want to  repost
the form data?".  I don't really know what this message means but I press OK
and then the map appears.

Expected Results: If I follow the same steps using 4.7 then it works. I wish it
would:
- Not show the extra message
- Show me the map immediately like 4.7

I can see this on mac and winnt.  the trick is to make your browser short and
wide before hitting submit.

I'll attach a screen shot.

looking at the html, this bug may be table related.  that's why I cc'd karnaze.

I can not get it to fail with todays branch build on WINNT. I tried tall-skinny
+ short-wide windows and several sizes inbetween and it always display the map.
Marking WORKSFORME.

I've tried a variety of addresses and most of them seem to work. When I map a
specific address I can duplicate the problem most of the time. I'll send you the
address in an email.
