Description Thomas Fuchs 2005-07-25 03:40:53 PDT

getComputedStyle returns null when called on an element which has display: none set.

<style>
 #x { display:none; }
</style>

<div id="x">test</div>

document.defaultView.getComputedStyle(document.getElementById('x'), null)  returns null (but should 
return the computed CSS styles object). This works when display:none; is removed.

Note that this works all ok in Gecko-based browsers.

Reassigning bug to default assignee to make it more visible.  (I don't believe Dave is working on this.)

Oops, bug 12384 is not a duplicate of this bug. This bug seems to be fixed in that a style declaration is returned, however all its properties are null, which bug 12384 is about.
