58467 - No 3d border on ActiveX wrapper in Visual Basic

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Core Graveyard :: Embedding: ActiveX Wrapper, defect, P3)

Description

[Geshp]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; m18) Gecko/20001029
BuildID:    2000102920

When using the ActiveX wrapper for Mozilla in Visual Basic, the control does not
have the 3d border around it.  I have worked around it by cropping the control
by two pixels on each side and placing a text box behind it.  The Microsoft
control puts in the border automatically whenever it loads the first page.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Installing ActiveX control as per instructions
2. Open Visual Basic, go to Project, Components and Check Mozilla 1.0 Type
Library, press OK.
3. Place a Mozilla control on the form

Actual Results:  The control came up, but no matter what page it goes to, it has
no borders on the side.

Expected Results:  Should place a three dimensional border around the control

While trying to confirm I ran into a worse problem, when I try to insert the 
control into a form, VB6 crashs with the following message:

NSPR:EventReceiver: VB6.EXE - Application Error
---------------------------
The instruction at "0x600f22e2" referenced memory at "0xffff0049". The memory 
could not be "read".

Using Mozilla trunk build 2000103104, Win2k SP1, and VB 6 SP3.

(sorry for the spam)
Whoops, slip of the brain...
I take back the vb6 sp3, I'm using sp4.

Bergee, open a new bug to cover your crash, but please ensure you've read up on
http://www.iol.ie/~locka/mozilla/mozilla.htm to ensure it's not a configuration
error. Please note that I need as much information as possible to be able to do
anything about the problem. Build numbers & stack traces at a bare minimum.

Now back to the main problem:

The Mozilla control doesn't have 3D border because it's not specifying
WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE style bit when it creates the browser window. It's not quite as
straightforward as adding the style bit since some of the rectangle calculation
code needs reworking but its easily doable.

Assigning to myself.

ok *looks sheepish*
I forgot that I removed my mozilla directory from my path a while back, so when 
I added it back in the control worked fine.
