See also bug 37950. I get assertions when right-clicking a text field. They come from attempts to get list-style and background in: nsContextMenu.js:279 var cssAttr = this.target.style.getPropertyValue( "list-style-image" ) || this.target.style.getPropertyValue( "list-style" ) || this.target.style.getPropertyValue( "background-image" ) || this.target.style.getPropertyValue( "background" ); Breakpoint 2, nsDebug::Assertion ( aStr=0x299f48e0 "can't query for shorthand properties", aExpr=0x281f2d60 "Error", aFile=0x299f47af "nsCSSDeclaration.cpp", aLine=3906) at nsDebug.cpp:184 (gdb) c Continuing. ###!!!

Perhaps they should be silently ignored?

I am guessing this is CSS land and belongs to pierre@netscape.com. Reassigning.

Updating QA Contact.

We shouldn't silently fail, the Asserts are good, they report a script that can't work. Marked fixed. The script was fixed since this bug was opened (it's been a long time, sorry).

Reassigning QA Contact for all open and unverified bugs previously under Lorca's care to Gerardo as per phone conversation this morning.
