Description Dieter Komendera 2007-11-26 14:14:27 PST
There is an issue when a parent div (float:left, overflow:hidden) contains several child divs (also float:left, overflow:hidden). If one or more of the child divs have a width set to 0, and have content (eg also a div with a specific width), the parent div will then be rendered as of the child divs hadn't set the width to 0.

I'll attach an example HTML file which demonstrates the problem.

This works for me as expected in Firefox 2.0.

Patch calcPrefWidths (use specified width as min/max pref width when 0).

It seems that comparing width > 0 is fairly common; there's also table cell code that does this. Perhaps a similar fix should at least be made for the table cell case -- not sure if it'd make a difference for min-width or max-width in calcPrefWidths.

Patch calcPrefWidths (use specified width as min/max pref width when 0).

Your test case could be made much smaller by removing unneeded lines of HTML.  (e.g. the DOCTYPE, the entire <head> a little <style> tag would also kill some of the copy/paste style=).  It's also missing a newline at the end of the file.

Hyatt should review this.

Patch calcPrefWidths (use specified width as min/max pref width when 0).

Pretty sure it's impossible for width to be negative, so once you've changed it to >= 0 it's equivalent to just not having that in the if statement at all.

Also, you need to patch RenderFlexibleBox::calcPrefWidths, as it has the same mistake.

Good catch :-) I'll go ahead and remove the >= 0 and fix the RenderFlexibleBox::calcPrefWidths and simplify the added test case.

Your opinion on whether a similar fix should be applied to the tableCell case that's approx 21 lines below:

        if (isTableCell()) {
            Length w = static_cast<const RenderTableCell*>(this)->styleOrColWidth();
            if (w.isFixed() && w.value() > 0)
                m_maxPrefWidth = max(m_minPrefWidth, calcContentBoxWidth(w.value()));
        }

?

The test case no longer fails as of r138211. OK to close?

nice, thanks! ok to close from my side.
