79193 - After switching style sheets using View/Use Stylesheet and then clicking on a link, still see current page...lack of reflow

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout, defect)

Description

[Jacob Kjome]

Tested on build #2001050704 on Win2k

After switching stylesheets using Mozilla's View/Use Stylesheet feature and then
clicking on a link, the linked page is loaded but the current page still
displays...sometimes with bits and peices of the new page showing through. 
Refreshing or re-sizing the browser window seems to correct this.  Also, having
another window in front of Mozilla and then bringing Mozilla back into focus
displays the new page, but doesn't always fully correct the situation.

I am attaching a testcase to this bug which contains the steps required to
reproduce the bug.

I see the symptoms you describe in the testcase on build 2001050704 on Win 95

Ok, now the View/Use Stylesheet feature only lists "none" for the list of 
stylesheets to choose from.

Reported that as bug 79785

Also, could someone please set this bug to confirmed so someone will actually 
start to fix it.  MozillaUser confirmed it, so it is not just my imagination.

As of build #2001051104 on win2k, bug 79785 is no longer an issue and, 
actually, this bug seems to be a WFM :-)

I know something was backed out for the context menu's.  This wouldn't have 
anything to do with that, would it?

Everything works great now.  No goofy reflows.

The original problem seems to be fixed now.

The testcase works in build 2001052304 on Win2k (SP2)

However, there seems to be some more weirdness.  I'll describe it here and then 
we'll figure out if it should be a new bug or not.

When switching stylesheets from a named one to none, all the styles (that I can 
tell) in the stylesheet no longer apply (correct) except the font-color which 
stays the same color as it was before (incorrect)

To reproduce:
1. load 
http://www.visi.com/~hoju/mozilla/barracuda/barracudaStrictPageTest2_noStyle.htm
l (this is the same page as below, only with the linked style sheet commented 
out... This is what things should look like after choosing Use Stylesheet/none 
on the next link)
2. In a new browser load 
http://www.visi.com/~hoju/mozilla/barracuda/barracudaStrictPageTest2.html
3. on the latter page, choose Use Stylesheet/none
4. Compare the two pages...notice the text inside the table stayed white and it 
now invisible since the background color is white, by default, with no style 
applied

Expected:  Text in the style sheet switch browser should be color black 
(default) with background white (default)

Actual: Text stayed white (as specified in stylesheet which should no longer be 
affecting anything) and is now invisible because it is the same color as the 
default background


So, is this a new bug?  Or is this a continuation of this one????
