Bug 14210 – Display Error: Broken Pulldown Popup rendering

• Status: CLOSED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: Forms

[Cameo Wood]

Running WebKit-SVN-r23553, when clicking a pulldown menu, the background of the resulting menu is black with black text.  When mousing over the text, the background turns cyan and the text becomes black.  In some cases, such as apple.com, the text in the menu overlaps itself and is illegible until I repeatedly mouse over it and force it to re-render.

Tested sites: 
bugs.webkit.org and www.apple.com

I don't see this behavior at all with a local debug build of WebKit r23546 and Safari 3.0 (522.11) on Mac OS X 10.4.9 (8P135).

Do you have any Safari extensions installed like Saft, PithHelmet, SafariStand, etc.?  If so, please remove/disable them and try to reproduce the issue again.

Dave, you need to check the OS field ;-)  Cameo is running on Windows so it's very unlikely that there are any extensions present.

[Cameo Wood]

For whatever reason, I can't reproduce it today since a machine reboot.  If I can reproduce this, I'll reopen the bug, but looks like it was just a glitch in the aether.

On my other laptop, (Also XP SP2, running Safari 3.0.1 and WebKit-SVN-r23553) I was able to reproduce the bug 100% of the time and I have a screenshot.

Open a fresh safari browser
Paste in this url: http://www.startmobile.net/if 
type in a phone #, choose a carrier, 
click on the "select your handset" pulldown

The entire pulldown is black with no visible type.

Please see the image I uploaded to this bug as an attachment.

Another screenshot of the problem, only mine renders slightly differently.

I have a radar bug on this.  I broke this in TOT recently.  I think its a problem with the style we're using for the individual items in PopupMenuWin.

I think this was somewhat broken even in the beta, if the <select> was styled in some specific way.
