Summary: The menu on the fed-soc.org web site is too low when rendered on a locally-built debug build of WebKit r18639 compared to shipping Safari 2.0.4 (419.3) on Mac OS X 10.4.8 (8N1037). Steps to reproduce: 1. Open URL: http://www.fed-soc.org/ 2. Wait for page to finish rendering/loading (see Bug 4076). Expected results: Menu should be below header graphic, but above content area. Actual results: Menu is shifted down, drawn across the content area. Regression: This is a regression from shipping Safari 2.0.4 (419.3) on Mac OS X 10.4.8 (8N1037). Notes: See Bug 4076 regarding the slow loading of the page.
Works on Opera 9.10 and Firefox 2.0.0.1.
I just noted that spoofing WebKit as Firefox 2 makes the menu render correctly. The page also seems to load slightly faster. ToT, r18843.

Created attachment 13018 [details] reduction This is not a bug. A script on this site relies on <tr> elements always having zero .offsetTop which was true in tiger but is not true in ToT. See the attached reduction. ToT behavior seems correct and matches Firefox. Slowness described in Bug 4076 is a separate issue.
Per Comment #4, this is now an evangelism issue. Reducing priority.
Sent a message: To: info@fed-soc.org Subject: Menu misplaced on web site with newer versions of Safari web browser Hi, I'm writing to let you know that the menu on the www.fed-soc.org web site renders in the wrong place when using newer versions of Apple's Safari web browser (see attached image). A new version of Safari has not been released yet, but will be when Apple ships Mac OS X 10.5 this spring. You may test this yourself if you have a Mac running Mac OS X 10.4.8 by downloading a "nightly" WebKit build, mounting the DMG file, and then double-clicking on the gold Safari icon. http://nightly.webkit.org/ It appears that this menu was created using AllWebMenus PRO from Likno Software. In order to fix this issue, I would suggest trying to upgrade from version 3.1 to a newer version of the software. The WebKit open source project (WebKit is the rendering engine that Safari uses) has been tracking this issue here: http://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12141 Thanks! Dave
Using Webkit r30123 I don't notice the buggy behavior. Any confirmations?
(In reply to comment #7) > Using Webkit r30123 I don't notice the buggy behavior. Any confirmations? The site has been re-designed. I no longer see the buggy behavior. Thanks!
