Bug Reports for March 2005
This is the monthly Bug Reports archive for March 2005.
The rows collection for tables in Safari is incorrect. It appears that Safari includes <th> elements in the rows collection. Using getElementsByTagName("tr")
returns the correct collection.

When loading XML through XMLHttpRequest, the resulting DOM does not allow access to content of elements, which happen to have the same element name in html AND which have an empty content model in html.
Example: the <link>...</link>
element from various RSS flavors is not available in Safari, using DOM methods, because an empty <link/>
element is defined for html.

Opera 7 shows a rough quantization error when a margin
or a padding
is expressed in em
units and the value of the property is greater than (about) 20.47em
. In these conditions the decimals are simply ignored. For example, all margins of 21em
, 21.1em
, … up to 21.9em
are rendered exactly the same. This is not a simple rounding error.

Using setAttribute, you should be able to set any attribute on an element. It appears that in IE, trying to set the style attribute does not work.

When using a css image, if there is no space between the end url bracket and the attributes following it, IE6 will not display the image.

Reported by: R.
Be careful using font-variant: small-caps
in IE6, because spaces have the size of the original font and can cause positioning problems.

When a block set to overflow: auto
contains floats Opera and Explorer Windows don't contain the floats correctly.

Reported by: Marc Pacheco.
IE is wrongly case sensitive about the usemap attribute of an image map. To change the map for an image in run time, you have to set the attribute "useMap", which is against the XHTML Strict standard. In a proper situation, you should set the "usemap" attribute.

When using an attribute selector like label[accesskey]
in conjunction with the
display: block:
on a label element, a child select box will go blank and/or act strange in mozilla/firefox.
In Opera the last two "act funny" boxes also act funny.

When you place a display inline on a fieldset and the form elements within the fieldset are floated, the form elements wont be clickable by Safari.
Using a position relative will fix this.

Reported by: Paul van Steenoven.
If the string "text-transform: capitalize" is text-transformed to capitalize, should the "t" of "-transform" be capitalized, too?
Opera and Mozilla say No, but they're in the minority. Therefore this is officially a bug in Opera and Mozilla.

​
works only when a text string is present. When the text consists of numbers only it doesn't work.

Reported by: Alexander Popov.
Opera misplaces absolutely-positioned elements when their containing block is subject to text-align of center or right. It places them where they would have been if they were subject to text-align:left
.
Explorer Mac positions the text correctly, but makes the divs far too wide.
Note that you need to be setting display:inline on a DIV, or similar, to be affected by this.

When swapping images with javascript Safari will stretch the new image to the size of the previous image, unless the previous and new images have different widths AND heights.

Opera 7.54 seems to ignore a click EventListener on Select boxes in
capturing phase.
The test case containers the smallest code needed to reproduce the bug. A workround is not possible in the capturing phase.
