This is the monthly Bug Reports archive for February 2006.
Setting certain combinations of padding, position, and white-space CSS properties on a block/inline element pair causes Internet Explorer to freeze up. (100% CPU usage.)

Adding disabled
attributes to <BUTTON>
elements in Safari does not have the desired effect.
Disabled buttons with text content are not greyed out and still respond visually to clicks (albeit without generating any onclick
events).
In <BUTTON>
elements with image content, the addition of a disabled
atribute has no effect whatsoever.

In Mozilla Firefox 1.5 when you scroll the form so that it is off-screen at the top then scroll back on-screen
the underscores on the first letter of each line sometimes do not re-appear again. When scrolling to the end of the form and backup again, and when the browser window is resized to a smal size it seems even more persistent. This bug is triggered by styling label:first-letter {text-decoration: underline}
.
(ppknote: This bug is quite flighty, I myself saw it only the third time I tried the test page.)

An absolute positioned element inside a fixed positioned element disappears after scrolling down one page height.
div#sidebar { position: fixed; top: 0; bottom: 0; }
div#disappearing { position: absolute; bottom: 0; }
ppknote: Opera 9 beta has a different bug, but this situation is still buggy. It doesn't recalculate the height of the fixed layer when the page is resized.

When Explorer encounters a tag with the style white-space:pre inside a table, it will only print the first line even though it renders properly in the browser.
(ppknote: IE 7 beta 2 only shows an 'O' in the print preview)

If a list element's borders are defined as 1px dotted, but one border is further defined as 2px or greater, IE7b2 renders the dotted borders as dashes.

IE crashes after updating several h1's css classes
and div's display style with javascript. The bug only happens when specific styles are being used, in a specific order of updating the elements, and with specific laps of time between the updates.
(ppknote: complicated bug. Please read the page carefully)
