Bug 61510 – Changing the dimensions of the parent do not change that of its child, when child is set to inherit parent’s dimensions

• Component: Plug-ins
• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

Creating an object tag(plug-in which runs a timer) with style.height and style.width as ‘inherit’.
Create another div with some default height and width & set it as parent of the plug-in(appendChild).
Plug-in takes the height and width from the parent. Later if one changes the dimensions of parent, plug-in does not resize accordingly.


Steps to reproduce:
1. Flash the device with latest image.
2. Install attached qtbrowser.sisx
3. Install npplugin.sisx
4. Place the index.html in C:\data
5. Run qtbrowser application from application menu
6. Click on dimension button.(This changes the height and width of parent div)

Expected Result:
Timer plug-in should immediately resize.

Actual Result:
Timer plug-in, still shows up with its previous dimensions.
NOTE: After changing parent’s dimension, if plug-in is hidden and then made visible, then it takes appropriate dimensions from parent.
