No, I am not using a projector. A projector just takes what's on your screen and puts it on the wall, it doesn't change what is done in your web browser. The projector mode on this page is probably just so that the font and colors are not tiny and washed out, as these are hard to read otherwise.
I have often come across pages like this, but not often enough that I can just go out and find one (I tried). I probably hit one every couple of weeks or so, often on high-end news/commercial sites with lots of specialized stuff on them. Sometimes the images even go over the text. If I find another one, I'll post it here. I looked at the page above in IE. The first block is rendered right, but down below they do have an overlapping/leaking block. However, when I do ctrl+ and ctrl-, the whole page just scales, and there is *no* alteration in the relative placement of any page elements. The text blocks do not spill out. The leaking block below stays leaking by exactly the same amount. This is quite different from firefox's behavior. Perhaps the IE behavior could be implemented and offered, at least as an option? I can see advantages to both (firefox always shows you the full content within your current page width, so no horizontal scrolling unless you had it at mag 1. IE never misrenders. A question: what is firefox policy for things that IE does differently from the standards. such that many web pages incorrectly depend on the IE behavior? --jh-- -- firefox renders text over images https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173585 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
