Reported 2009-01-26 15:37:43 PST

Tested on: Sfari 3.2.1 - XP, Midori 0.12 - Ubuntu (libwebkit 1.01.4+r40220) Google Chrome 1.0.154.43 - XP In every page I browsed where <body dir="rtl"> or body{direction:rtl} is defined, there is no horizontal scrollbar when the window is narrower then the page width. To reproduce - browse any Hebrew/Arabic page (you can try mine - http://tombigel.com or http://tendu.tombigel.com)

Duplicate of bug 3352?

Comment 4 2009-01-28 09:57:11 PST

I don't think so. This bug is a specific bug for RTL pages. the same page without RTL definition renders just fine (you can press the "english" link in tendu.tombigel.com, and see, same HTML, english content, no direction:rtl on <body>)

Comment 6 2009-04-22 00:10:39 PDT

Created attachment 29675 [details] A workaround fix As far as I investigated on my MacBook, it is an edge-case problem caused by discrepancy (sorry, I cannot figure out any better words) between FrameView and RenderBlock. FrameView trims the left side of its children when their offsetLeft is negative. (It is an expected behavior.) On the other hand, RenderBlock::determineHorizontalPosition may set a negative value to the offsetLeft value of an RTL element wider than the window width. (It is also an expected behavior.) So, when FrameView has a child RTL element wider than the window width, RenderBlock::determineHorizontalPosition set a negative value to the offsetLeft value of the RTL element and FrameView trims its left side without displaying a horizontal scrollbar. Even Though I'm not confident this is a right fix, I wrote a workaround fix and a layout test for this case.

Comment 14 2009-05-23 16:26:22 PDT

What do other browsers do in this situation (quirks and strict mode)? It's not clear to me that shrinking the width of an element is the right thing to do here.

(In reply to comment #14) > What do other browsers do in this situation (quirks and strict mode)? It's not > clear to me that shrinking the width of an element is the right thing to do > here. Sorry for my very slow response. To show the test file in my fix 2 with IE8 and Firefox 3, their "document.getElementById('test').offsetLeft" values become negative. So, my workaround, which moves the <body> element so that the above value always become non-negative, is wrong in terms of browser compatibility. I'm finding other solutions for this bug.

Comment on attachment 43559 [details] A workaround fix 3 Please try to pare down the comments. It's not necessary to have a comment (often lengthy) every time int m_rtlMinChildPosition appears. This hurts readability. Try to limit your comments to saying *why* the code is doing something, rather than *what* it is doing. "what" should be apparent from the code. I also agree with Jeremy's comment that the "less than or equal to 0" condition is best documented with an ASSERT, in which case I expect the multiple comments explaining that it is less than or equal to 0 are not necessary. r- to clean this up. The change otherwise looks ok to me, assuming it matches what other browsers do, but it may help to have a rendering expert chime in.

I tend to write more garbage comments when I'm less confident of it. I deleted some garbage comments in my previous change. Nevertheless, I'm still not so confident of this change because 'offsetLeft' values are not so consistent among browsers and I'm not sure what values I should rely on. (This change makes Safari look similar with other browsers, though.) Regards, Hironori Bono

Comment 24 2010-01-13 23:50:51 PST

Comment on attachment 45958 [details] Workaround fix 4 This doesn’t look like the right approach to fixing this bug. There is no apparent reason why it should involve increasing the size of RenderBlock, and this seems to account only for block children of blocks in normal flow. Changing the margin like has all sorts of consequences, e.g. affecting computed style. I don’t understand why any of this is necessary unless the body element is RTL. Looking at what Firefox does, it seems to be the only consideration. This patch also doesn’t address the initial position of the horizontal scrollbar on a RTL page. It maintains a lot of asymmetry between the RTL and LTR cases. I think the correct approach should be similar to a case that already behaves correctly: RTL blocks with overflow: scroll. The logic for those is in RenderLayer. They mirror the behavior of LTR blocks with overflow: scroll. RenderView should behave the same with respect to the direction of the body element. Currently it has a LTR bias: docWidth() considers the rightmost position and the right edges of child boxes. layout() adds overflow to the right but never to the left, etc. The correct place to fix this is mainly in RenderView, but some changes to FrameView and Frame will probably be needed too. I suggest studying the RenderLayer code.

Created attachment 53150 [details] A proposed fix 5 Sorry for my slow update. I have updated my change to change the RenderView class instead of changing the RenderBlock class as suggested by mitz@webkit.org. (This change also changes the RenderBox class not only to synchronize the text direction of a RenderView object with the one of a <body> element, but also to paint the background of a RenderView object with the color of the <body> element.) Unfortunately, this change uses a pixel test because I haven't find any good ideas to write a text test for this bug. Would it be possible to review the updated change and give me your comments?

I'm not a reviewer, but I took a brief look. I'm not sure why we would scroll the renderview all the way over to the left in this case - in firefox it appears that this does not occur (i.e. when loading the test page in firefox the scrollbar is all the way to the right).

What about the case where the <html> element has it but <body> is ltr? I tested this a while back and found that indeed, in Firefox, the body element’s direction is the only one that matters.

Comment 37 2010-07-26 14:37:16 PDT

Created attachment 62608 [details] patch w/ layout test The patch works for Chromium in 3 platforms, but it does not work well in MAC port where ScrollView is a platformWidget. The problem in MAC port is: For RTL page, the horizontal scrollbar should be at the very right when page is loaded at first time. I am re-setting the scroll position in (void)setScrollOriginX:(int)scrollOriginX inside WebDynamicScrollBarsView.mm. Please refer to FIXME in the file. But apparently, it is not the right place to reset it. Resetting the scroll position there makes the scroll position reset to its original position for RTL page when page reload, page zoom, page resize, and might also window.scrollX (although I do not understand why there is write operation in this read-only access), which are all wrong. Please refer to the FIXMEs in the layout test file.

Thanks for the upload. Looks like the patch wont work for Safari in Mac either. We need to get this fixed (to pass layout test) to check the patch in, otherwise, we need to make this as non-safari-in-mac patch.

Created attachment 66098 [details] patch w/ layout test The patch is not completed for Mac port: 1. For RTL page, the horizontal scroll bar is at the very left (instead of very right as in Firefox and Chromium with the patch) when page first loaded. 2. For RTL page, horizontal scrollbar does not behave completely correct for zoom in and out. For example, zooming in and then out should keep the horizontal scrollbar at the same position as it was before zooming. But it is not the case for Safari in Mac. See test file horizontal-scrollbar-in-rtl.html for detail.

Looks like Dan is busy. Wondering could David and Simon review the patch? I believe this fix is pretty important for RTL users. Although it does not work completely for Safari in Mac, it is a big improvement comparing with cutting off the left part of the content. I am hoping the patch could be submitted and someone from Apple knowing the codebase better to work on the issues in Mac port. (Or I could make this not-for-platformWidget-scrollview patch if that is desired). Thanks in advance and appreciate your attention.

Comment 49 2010-10-22 15:29:47 PDT

Comment on attachment 66128 [details] patch w/ layout test The scroll stuff looks fine. I don't like the m_bodyIsLTR variable though. If a different direction is explicitly specified on the root element, this should supercede the body's direction. In addition, XML documents will typically set the direction on the root. Since the time this patch has been worked on, I committed a fix that propagates both direction and writing-mode on the root element (<html>) up to the RenderView's style. This means the RenderView itself now matches the direction and writing-mode of the <html>. Rather than doing this m_bodyIsLTR hack, I think we should probably expand the propagation code I added to also propagate from the body. It should only do this though if the <html> element didn't explicitly have its direction set. You can see this code in CSSStyleSelector::styleForDocument and then it also dynamically updates the style in styleDidChange. You may want to consider an initial checkin that just works with the RenderView's direction (using test cases that set RTL on <html>) and work on the propagation code from the <body> in a followup patch.

Dave Hyatt

Comment 50 2010-10-22 15:32:46 PDT

Actually I have to fix the body propagation issue for writing-mode anyway, so I can just handle that part for you in a separate bug.

Dave Hyatt

Comment 51 2010-10-22 15:40:04 PDT

I filed https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48157 to cover the <body> propagation issue. Once I fix that, the RenderView will have the correct directionality set right on its style.

Comment 52 2010-10-25 15:44:15 PDT

Created attachment 71805 [details] patch w/ layout test The patch is not completed for Mac port (if PLATFORM(MAC) && defined __OBJC__) where ScrollView is defined as PlatformWidget. In which, 1. For RTL page, the horizontal scroll bar is at the very left (instead of very right as in Firefox and Chromium with the patch) when page first loaded. Ideally, scrollbar should be at the very right when page first loaded. But it should *not* reset to this original position when page reload or zooming. 2. For RTL page, horizontal scrollbar does not behave completely correct for zoom in and out. For example, zooming in and then out should keep the horizontal scrollbar at the same position as it was before zooming. But it is not the case for Safari in Mac. See test file horizontal-scrollbar-in-rtl.html for detail. I need some help to figure out where are the correct places to make above 2 cases work. Or maybe case 1. is not possible for Safari in Mac?

(In reply to comment #53) > xji: I may be mistaken but looks like your patch regresses bug 24118 Yes, you are right. After picking up r70456 where dhyatt did propagation direction from <body>, the testing URL http://www.dentalspace.co.il works correctly with horizontal scrollbar. And the test case you posted (https://bug-24118-attachments.webkit.org/attachment.cgi?id=72065) works correctly with horizontal scrollbar. But the problem happens when you switch body direction. Seems the style change did not propagate correctly to RenderView. It is the same case if the original body direction is set as "ltr" in your test case.

Comment 55 2010-11-17 05:04:44 PST

Created attachment 74099 [details] Snapshot Snapshot of current work, this now appears to work on Safari with caveats listed below. Known issues with this patch: * History save/restore of scrollbar position doesn't work correctly. * fast/dom/horizontal-scrollbar-in-rtl.html layout test reloads itself in a loop and thus can't be run manually in Safari. The scrollbar thumb isn't updated when switching document direction programmatically though this appears to be an existing bug with style propagation. Probably best to address this in a separate bug.

Jeremy Moskovich

Comment 57 2010-11-17 07:36:43 PST

The reason that save/restore of the scrollbar position isn't working appears to be that the call to [documentView scrollPoint:] which I added in [WebDynamicScrollBarsView refreshInitialScrollbarPosition] is firing off a notification which runs through the same code path as if the user had moved the scrollbar. This has 2 undesirable effects: * Looks like this may dispatch a JS scroll event. * FrameView::setWasScrolledByUser() is called. The call to FrameView::setWasScrolledByUser() causes the code in HistoryController::restoreScrollPositionAndViewState() to think that the user has moved the scrollbar manually (view->wasScrolledByUser() returns true) and so doesn't override it with the saved position. Relevant part of stack trace: #0 0x101881f0c in WebCore::FrameView::setWasScrolledByUser at FrameView.cpp:2054 #1 0x1018039b5 in WebCore::EventHandler::setFrameWasScrolledByUser at EventHandler.cpp:2767 #2 0x101803a8c in WebCore::EventHandler::sendScrollEvent at EventHandler.cpp:2758 #3 0x101884f39 in WebCore::FrameView::scrollPositionChanged at FrameView.cpp:1262 #4 0x10188503f in WebCore::FrameView::scrollPositionChangedViaPlatformWidget at FrameView.cpp:1257 #5 0x100f7c516 in -[WebHTMLView(WebPrivate) _frameOrBoundsChanged] at WebHTMLView.mm:1208 #6 0x7fff8706f84e in _nsnote_callback #7 0x7fff832d2a90 in __CFXNotificationPost #8 0x7fff832bf008 in _CFXNotificationPostNotification #9 0x7fff870667b8 in -[NSNotificationCenter postNotificationName:object:userInfo:] #10 0x7fff862e3479 in -[NSView _postBoundsChangeNotification] #11 0x7fff863f8073 in -[NSView translateOriginToPoint:] #12 0x7fff863bb07a in -[NSClipView _immediateScrollToPoint:] #13 0x100f1e9f7 in -[WebClipView _immediateScrollToPoint:] at WebClipView.mm:99 #14 0x7fff863bac05 in -[NSClipView scrollToPoint:] #15 0x7fff863f7bc6 in -[NSScrollView scrollClipView:toPoint:] #16 0x7fff86335bbc in -[NSClipView _scrollTo:animate:] #17 0x7fff863b2af9 in -[NSClipView _scrollPoint:fromView:] #18 0x7fff863b2a7a in -[NSView scrollPoint:] #19 0x100f329f6 in -[WebDynamicScrollBarsView refreshInitialScrollbarPosition] at WebDynamicScrollBarsView.mm:171 Does anyone have any suggestions on the proper way to set the initial scrollbar position?

Created attachment 74197 [details] snapshot add patch fixing scrollbar repositioning when document's direction changes (only works for non platformWidget). The patch does not work for platformWidget ScrollView in 3 areas: 1. scrollbar reset to right-most position when page reload. (should have a layout test to cover it). 2. scrolling and scrollbar position does not work well in zoom-in/out. The scroll position should be updated so the content stays in relatively the same position. (has layout test). 3. scrollbar does not reposition when document's direction changes, for example, scrollbar should be changed from left-most position to right-most position when document changes from left-to-right to right-to-left directionality. This is related to case 1. (has layout test).

Comment 59 2010-11-18 06:45:51 PST

Created attachment 74233 [details] patch dhyatt,mitz: Could you take a look please? Updated patch with following changes: 1)History restore now works correctly, see note below. 2) Minor cleanup of horizontal-scrollbar-in-rtl.html. 3) Added layout test to make sure no scroll events are fired on initial display. I chatted with dhyatt a bit on irc on how the platformWidget code should update the initial scrollbar position. The logical option would be to call FrameView:: setScrollPosition(), however the only place where we know that a horizontal scrollbar has been created is in [WebDynamicScrollView updateScrollers] and calling out to FrameView from there would be a layering violation. The other problem is that FrameView:: setScrollPosition() triggers a JS scroll event, which is not something we want to do when setting the initial scrollbar position. The patch moves the scrollers by calling [documentView scrollPoint:] and works around the problem in comment #57 by short-circuiting the notification callback if it detects that the scroller is having it's initial position set programmatically. If you think there's a better way of doing this, I'd appreciate a suggestion for an alternate approach. Known issues with this patch: 1) scrollbar location not updated when programmatically setting direction for platformWidget code. 2) resize test in horizontal-scrollbar-in-rtl.html fails on mac platform. I think that neither of these are regressions from the current behavior, and if it's OK I'd like to address them in a followup patch.
