718278 - Remove chromedir attributes, use -moz-locale-dir instead

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Calendar :: General, defect)

Description

[Richard Marti (:Paenglab)]

Chromedir doesn't work anymore, we have to use -moz-locale-dir.

I've found remnants in calendar-views.css and accountCentral.css

Exchange [chromedir="rtl"] with :-moz-locale-dir(rtl)

Philipp do you give approval for beta? This doesn't work already under TB 9 and it would be good if this is fixed for the ESR release.

According to the original calendar bug 532102 all occurrences of chromedir="&locale.dir;" can be removed too.

Comment 5

[Richard Marti (:Paenglab)]

Yes, this patch should fix every chromedir= occurence.

I'm confused because the patch doesn't remove the |chromedir="&locale.dir;"| usage as indicated by comment 4 and comment 5. Are the entries still required in the *.xml and *.xul files or not?

I'm not sure but when I check <http://mxr.mozilla.org/comm-central/search?string=chromedir=> then also a lot of toolkit and mailnews files have still chromedir. Because of this I let them and changed only the css files.

It does not make sense to have a chromedir attribute on elements if no CSS selector uses it afaik.
