Details

* TITLE/SUMMARY Text box for a TEXTAREA field drawn at incorrect coordinates * STEPS TO REPRODUCE 0) Launch Viewer 1) Load the HTML snippet (alternatively placed http://www.prometheus-music.com/ staging/textarea.html) 2) Move the mouse pointer to the TEXTAREA region, and click. 3) Type random text, like, "kljfslkfslkrewoijwoireheypinkertonokjjlkdfwkjlfjklfdanotherhiddenmessagejklrewio rewoirlkjkljf" (it may be easier to just bang your head against the keyboard a few times.) * RESULT - What happened Messed up coordinates. A white region equal in size to the TEXTAREA appears, starting about 4 pixels to the bottom-right of the upper-left hand corner of the Gecko toolbar. Text is drawn on top of the toolbar (in the white region), rather than in the specified text area. Oh, and the enter and return keys don't do anything, either. ;) - What was expected I won't insult your intelligence. ;) [Regular text fields (i.e. on bugzilla.mozilla.org) work fine.] * REGRESSION - Occurs On viewer (1.25.99 optimized build for Mac OS) - Doesn't Occur On viewer (1.25.99 optimized build for Win32 [NT 4, Service Pack 3]) viewer (1.25.99 optimized build for Linux) * CONFIGURATIONS TESTED - [Mac] Power Mac 8500/120 (233 Mhz 604e), 64 MB RAM (VM on; 1 MB of VM used), 1024x768 (Thousands of Colors), Mac OS 8.5.1 - [Win32] Vectra VL (233 Mhz P2), 96 MB RAM, 800x600 (True Color), NT 4.0 SP3. - [Linux] Vectra VL (P2) * HTML SNIPPET <HTML><BODY> <FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="../programs/process.cgi"> <TEXTAREA NAME="textarea" ROWS=10 COLS=50></TEXTAREA> </FORM> </BODY></HTML>

Pierre said he was going to take a look at this and he is _much_ more familiar with the coordinate system issues (I haven't looked at that stuff in months). If you really want me to handle this i guess I can, but I'm swamped with my own xptoolkit stuff.
Oops. Correction to bug report. This was checked on 1.22.99 and 1.26.99 Mac OS builds. (all other 'builds checked' information is correct.)

It should be fixed by now. I forgot to mark it as such last week.
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
Verified fixed using 3.9.99 Mac OS build of Seamonkey (Apprunner and Viewer checked). [Typed in (and pasted) lots'o' text and it all appeared in the right place.]
