To see this, just click into the body of a Web page. You'll get a blinking insertion cursor, and when it's absent, a thin vertical row of pixels are missing from the character to the right of the cursor.

Component: XPApps → Selection and Search
Re-assigned to kostello@netscape.com and changed component to Selection. Greg, any idea who should get this bug?
Simon: transfering this bug to you. Please verify that this is a general caret drawing bug and not something specific to gfx. -- Thanks
Target Milestone: M4
Moving to M4 We would like to complete all Caret related tasks for this milestone
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
Actually, it is specific to GFX, because GFX does not do drawing with different pen modes yet.I filed bug 3886.
Target Milestone: M4 → M5
I can't do anything here until GFX is fixed. M5
Target Milestone: M5 → M6
M6, like the bug it depends on (3886)
Target Milestone: M6 → M9
Moved to M9, like bug 3886 that it depends on.
Depends on: 3886
Per a request from Selection and Search component eng (mjudge) and qa (elig), moving all "Selection and Search" bugs to new "Selection" component. Original "Selection and Search" component will be retired.

I only see this problem within the Editor; while not explicitly stated within the bug report, I'm assuming from context that it's what Pratt meant. Also updated Platform to "All". Verified fixed using 8.13.99 AM builds on Win NT 4.0SP3 & Mac OS 8.6, and 8.12.99 Linux (Red Hat 6/GNOME) build.
