User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4 when selecting text that has the style font-variant: small-caps, the background color is correctly assigned to the default xp text-selection-background color in all cases. The text color, however, reverts to its original color if there are in the string letters of a different case. This is a problem when the text color on the string is the same or similar to the background color default xp selected-text-background-color. I tried the same text selection in internet explorer which kept the default xp text-selection color, so it is not an os problem. If using #316ac5 as the text color on Windows XP with the default theme, then the problem becomes apparent. I am not sure if other operating systems are affected in the same way. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use Windows XP using the default theme 2. Go to http://cs.wheaton.edu/~mbucy/firefoxbugs.htm 3. Select text in the "interspersable cases" line Actual Results: The text disappears once a letter of a different case is encountered. Expected Results: The text should have retained the default XP text-selection color
In Step 1. of reproduction, note that the default theme I am refering to is the OS theme, not the firefox theme.
