65249 - Table rendered incorrectly after hitting 'Back' button

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout: Tables, defect)

Description

[Andrew Patterson]

(Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; 0.7) Gecko/20010109)
Steps to reproduce:
1) Must be in resolution higher than 800x600
(ie. 1024x768 is
2) Must have browser maximized
2) goto http://neomueller.org
3) page should render normally:
- page has L-shaped menu and title in UL corner
- text body & other links are 'tucked' tight in
"L", should be just a little wider than title
portion
4) goto anywhere else
5) Click back button
6) Now text body (everything but the "L") is
noticeably offset to the right

NOTES:
- hitting refresh corrects the problem
- on resultions of 800x600 or lower, the problem
does not occur, problably for the same reason as...
- it does not occur if the browser if there is
"enough room" for the table to be offset. I know that's
not a great term, but if you put into a resolution of,
say, 1152 x 864, not maximized, maybe an inch wider than
the normallay rendered page needs and then repeat the
above steps, the offset occurs. If you widen the browser
more and repeat, the offset gets worse. So the more room
there is, the more room the bug makes use of :P
- doing anything that causes the page to re-render (ie.
changing width/height of browser) causes table to move
back to correct position.

I can't reproduce this on my NT 1024x768 with window maximised. Can QA confirm?

I'm going to mark this WFM, so that it falls in to QA's radar. Please reopen if
it still happens.

using the testpage, I don't see this with the 20010214 builds on Win98 or linux.
Marking VERIFIED WFM.
feel free to reopen if this bug can be reliably repro'd with a current build
