Bug 50532 – REGRESSION ( r72896 - r73316 ): Page appears blank at http://www.apple.com/macbookair/

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: DUPLICATE
• Component: Layout and Rendering

[Chris Petersen]

With Webkit Nightly build r73316, I noticed that all page content in missing ( initially ) from http://www.apple.com/macbookair/. It's basically a empty page with a black background. If you reload this page, it does draw all of the content in the window. This page loads fine in the previous Webkit NB r72896 so this issue regressed between r72896 and r73316

Steps to reproduce:

1) Launch Webkit Nightly build r73316 and go to http://www.apple.com/macbookair/
2) URL loads but no content appears


This issue happens on other pages such as http://www.apple.com/itunes/, http://www.apple.com/itunes/charts/songs/, http://www.apple.com/itunes/whats-new/,

I was also encountering this issue at http://www.apple.com/. I have a reduction of the page that has some text in the BODY. the test page uses a @import CSS in the head.  This is external CSS file points two other CSS files using @import.


Steps to reproduce.

1) Empty cache , clear history and drag attached file into browser window. (I'm testing with Webkit Nightly r73340 on SL )

2) The page text ('test') doesn't  appear on the page ( this text in the BODY element )

3) Reloading the page will draw the text on the page

Reduction of apple page that reproduces issue

The @import rule makes me think that this is related to or a duplicate of bug 50502.

Works at r72987, fails at r72988 - so definitely a dupe of 50502.
