User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8 (but also happens on Windows Firebird .8) The phpBB scrolling panel on the URL incorrectly displays full width. This does not happen in IE 6.0 (Windows) or Safari (Mac OS X). It happens on both Mac and Windows Firefox .8. The problem is usually visible before logging into the phpBB site, but sometimes afterwards too. It did not show up until after the 'scrolling panel' for 'Recent Forum Topics' was enabled. I don't know if this is a problem caused by poor coding that IE and Safari handle better, or if Firefox truly has a bug here. IE and Safari definitely handle this more gracefully. I started related threads on these sites: http://www.sveasoft.com/modules/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1019 http://sveasoft.cyberemail.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=91 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: The problem on Firefox on Windows almost always happens before logging in to the site. After logging in the problem often goes away after viewing a few messages. Using Firefox .8 on Windows: 1. Go to http://www.sveasoft.com/modules/phpBB2/index.php 2. Look at the scrolling panel 'Recent Forums Topics' on the left, and you will see that it is displaying as the full width. On Firefox (Mac OS X) I did the same thing but didn't see a problem until after I logged in, and then it seemed to go away. Actual Results: The scrolling panel displayed full width. Expected Results: The scrolling panel should have displayed about 1/3 width leaving space on the right to read the message topics. These can still be viewed by scrolling to the right where Firefox rendered them 'off screen'. These bugs might be related but they didn't seem to be exactly the same (or their examples didn't work) (searched bugzilla for 'phpbb'): 189693 min -- PC core.layout.html-frames@bugs UNCO Scroll Bar when entering a post/reply does not work as ex... 238589 nor -- PC firefox@blakeross.com UNCO Code, links and some images don't display correctly in a ... 234758 maj -- PC nobody@mozilla.org UNCO firefox produces confusing output in phpBB bulletin boards

Exact same thing concerning extra-lengthy table widths on Invision boards: http://members.rogers.com/genghis86/mozilla.htm

Browser is Firefox 0.8 Gecko/20040206 Problem goes away after navigating to "about:blank", then going back to that page. IE handles it gracefully, no bugs there.

Same as above link...

Seems to be this: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217369 i guess its fixed in latest nightlies

The bug still exists in Firefox .9 on the http://www.sveasoft.com/modules/phpBB2/index.php site. It seems that this discussion may be related: "website is not showing up in the right way..." http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?p=576817

This bug is pobably the same issue as bug 240175.

"I don't know if this is a problem caused by poor coding that IE and Safari handle better, or if Firefox truly has a bug here." In which case the css/html/fonts keywords shouldn't be added. Also, only Firefox developers should set the blocking flags to "+" - if you feel the bug should be a blocker, set the flag to "?"

I think it's the same issue - the other bug has a testcase and is in the right component, so duping that way... *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 240175 ***
