Hey, I'm using 2002010506/linux. Selectboxes (like the ones at the on the bug pages on bugzilla) are displaying. strangely. will attach screenshot. kind of maybe related to bug 117960, perhaps. seeing this "everywhere".

on the left one the list is too far below the box, on the right one it's too far up (covering the box).
Are you opening these dropdowns with mouse or keyboard?
Mouse. But, now I can't reproduce it again... Will investigate more.
Only reproducable after looking at the testcase @ bug 117960 marking as dupe of that. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 117960 ***

reopening. The other bug is most likely an evangelism problem, while this problem is a different kettle of soup entirely. The fact that the same testcase reproduces both seems not so relevant...

For what it's worth, with build 2002-01-07-06 on Linux I tried the following steps: 1) open a new window 2) load http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/showattachment.cgi?attach_id=63397 (from bug 117960) in that window. 3) Open and close the popup. 4) browse to this bug page in that window 5) Try opening popups I cannot reproduce this problem... alge@samsen.com, could you provide specific steps to reproduce?
*sigh* no, can't reproduce, using same build as when I saw it first... Must have been triggered by something else, I guess. Tried going through my history, didn't help..
it's still there with 2002012208, btw. _very_ hard to repro, been surfin' around quite a few hours in one session, then I select some text with the mouse, right click, and the menu appears a bit further down than I'd expect. Smells fishy. So I try one of the select boxes and, yep, reproduced this bug. So it's apparantly not just selectboxes. I guess the pop up menu (rightclick) is somewhat similar to the selectbox popups? Opening a new window fixed it both in the new window _and_ in the window showing the bug. I guess this doesn't really help much ... (:
[sorry about the spam] Still seing this. Latest debian sid package, Gecko/20020320.
Summary: selectboxes displaying strangely → selectbox dropdown menus are vertically misaligned
Gecko/20020412 Debian/0.9.9-6: Seeing this again. This time I also noticed the URL dropdown history box was misaligned, and the right-click-on-page popupmenu too.

*** Bug 140398 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
from bug 140398 : Steps to reproduce: * Have site nav bar set to show as needed. * Load a page which activates the site nav bar. * Load a page which doesn't need it (deactivating it). * The page will render, then the navbar will be removed. This moves the view up some number of pixels, but all popups are not corrected. This causes the redraw problem. bz or layoutpeople, can you confirm this?
Confirmed. Thanks for the excellent reproduction steps! As a note, this is not a problem with XBL form controls, just with the old-style ones.
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
Some sites don't seem to trigger with my steps for some reason. IE: Slashdot then imdb will cause it, but Slashdot then google won't (I suspect it has to do with the layout/complexity, making this a wily/tricky bug indeed).
