Bug 13210 – Textarea resizer not drawn on pages with no external resources and specified in user style sheet

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: CONFIGURATION CHANGED
• Component: Forms

[Matt Lilek]

If textarea resizing is specified in a user style sheet and a page does not have any external css resources, the resize handle will not be drawn until the textarea is focused.

[Matt Lilek]

To clarify a bit:
- This can be triggered not just by external CSS, but other external resources (ie: javascripts)

- This only seems to apply to the resize attribute when alone, other styles apply fine and the resizer shows up properly when other styles are specified for the textarea.

- This only happens when resize is specified in a user style sheet, it works fine if specified within the document.

- Forcing a repaint by resizing the window, switching tabs, etc doesn't do anything.

This style needs to be in your user style sheet: "textarea { resize: both; }"

Changing that to something like "textarea { resize: both; color: red; }" causes the resizer to appear.

I am not able to reproduce this in Safari Technology Preview 154, the resize control on the bottom right corner is available using attached reduction and it is matching with Chrome Canary 108 and Firefox Nightly 107.

I am marking this as "RESOLVED CONFIGURATION CHANGED". Please reopen, if someone is available to reproduce. Thanks!
