(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

3 tests from:
http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/layout/reftests/selection/reftest.list

fails-if(Android) != pseudo-element-of-native-anonymous.html pseudo-element-of-native-anonymous-ref.html # bug 676641
# These tests uses Highlight and HighlightText color keywords, they are not same as text selection color on Mac.
fails-if(cocoaWidget) == non-themed-widget.html non-themed-widget-ref.html
fails-if(cocoaWidget) == themed-widget.html themed-widget-ref.html


it seems that for the first test we incorrectly run the test (unexpected pass) on android XUL and we correctly run the test on android native (expected fail).  Since Android is a single condition, we can't split this.  We need to figure out why this fails on XUL and fix that as another condition other than OS.

The last two pass on Android XUL, but fail on Android Native.  It appears that our selected background color is grey with white text vs black with yellow text.  Not sure if there is a window manager or graphics layer that we can use to determine if this is valid or not.

Attachment: fix manifest to support xul tests for android and browserIsRemote (1.0)

I don't like this patch, but this bug has not received any feedback from the mobile developers as to why these tests are failing.  We need to get these test runs green and unhidden.

What do the failures look like? Do we need to add CSS color keywords for the text selection color?

seems that a m-c update fixed this.
