It stopped working after other changes to the browser core, IIRC (and if I
don't, then I'm sure I'll be corrected :-).

Invisible text

2011-04-24 Thread Richard Porter 
I've recently come across two examples where text is invisible because 
it is the same colour as the background.

The first is http://www.robinhoodpub.co.uk/ then click on the Eat 
icon. This loads menu1.htm into an iframe in a table cell.

 The table has class Background2 which doesn't specify a colour:

.Background2 {
 background-image: url(images/graphics/brickmakers.jpg);
 background-repeat: no-repeat;
 background-position: left top;
}

The main body is class Colour1 which is grey:

.Colour1 {
 background-color: #99;
}

body class=Colour3

.Colour3 {
 background-color: transparent;
}

Then the menu items are white e.g.:

  p align=center class=Body1Homemade Soup of the Day 
br/br
  strongpound;4.95/strong/p

.Body1 {
 font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
 font-size: 12px;
 color: #FF;
 font-weight: normal;
}

The problem seems to be that NetSurf has given the iframe a white 
background and ignored the transparency. The background image is 
present surrounding the iframe.


The second example is different. In 
http://www.bridgeaudio.co.uk/micsprices.htm .
This is crap html generated by Lotus Word Pro.

BODY BGCOLOR=orange
FONT FACE = Arial
FONT COLOR = Yellow
body bgcolor=Orange link=Orange vlink=Orange

...

TABLE ALIGN=CENTER BORDER =8 CELLSPACING=4 CELLPADDING=4 WIDTH=100%

TR ALIGN=CENTER VALIGN=TOP
  TD  BGCOLOR = Yellow BH2AKG HANDHELD MICROPHONES/TD
/TABLE

Anyway there's a 'presentational hint' that the default text colour 
should be yellow. The table cells have a background colour which is 
also yellow. Other browsers default the text colour inside the table 
cells to black so the text shows up.

Before I raise a bug report is this behaviour correct, incorrect or 
unspecified?

I don't want a user experience - I just want stuff that works.
