94384 - Workaround for xul sizing problem to be removed once is bug# 91137 fixed

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 124241

(Core Graveyard :: Security: UI, defect, P2)

Description

[Rangan Sen]

To resolve the xul window sizing problem [ bug#91137 ] we have the following
workaround - which is a very uncomfortable thing to have. 

var xulWindow = document.getElementById("serverCertExpired");
var wdth = window.innerWidth; // THIS IS NEEDED,
window.sizeToContent();
xulWindow.setAttribute("width",window.innerWidth + 30);
var hght = window.innerHeight; // THIS IS NEEDED,
window.sizeToContent();
xulWindow.setAttribute("height",window.innerHeight + 40);
  
This should be removed once bug# 91137 is fixed. The patches that use this
workaround are:
bug# 92213
bug# 85792
bug# 78615

It would be a good idea to add any patch that uses this workaround to this list.

Making the bug depend on 91137.

This fix also concerns bug 89420 and perhaps should concern bug 75596 as well...

The latter (the unknown CA/new server dialog) works for me, since it uses
style="width: 123em..." for sizing. However, there might still be problems once
the dialog is internationalized, since the length of the text will vary.
