Package: firefox
Version: 1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.3-2
Severity: wishlist

Could you please do an experiment to see if a big open source groups'
pages look as bad as they do for me?  Probably poor page design, but
why is it only me that sees things so blatantly overprinted.

Problem: they use <div style="position:fixed...>

$ wget -O /tmp/of.html \
http://www.openfoundry.org/index.pl%3Fsection%3Dzh_allproject
$ #now disconnect your computer from the internet to avoid getting
stylesheets etc.
$ firefox /tmp/of.html #do you see ugly overwriting?
$ sed '/position:fixed/s/fixed//' /tmp/of.html>/tmp/of1.html
$ firefox /tmp/of1.html #OK, page looks good now, without having to do ALT V Y N

I don't usually get images, stylesheets etc. But still pages shouldn't
look that bad standalone.  Anyway, let's assume all the user has is
the single web page and he can't even read it due to overprinting.
He must use lynx or w3m instead.

Hmmm, looks like I will have to override position:fixed somehow in the future.

OK, probably the <div id="nav_right"> in some stylesheet I didn't
download is why this isn't a problem for others.

As a guess I put
div { position: ! important;} etc. in
~/.mozilla/firefox/*.default/chrome/userContent.css
but no help.

OK, a firefox bug: no way to override
<div style="position:fixed;top:0px;left:0px;width:193px;">
in userContent.css

Indeed, in
file:///usr/share/doc/wdg-html-reference/reference/css/dependence.html
we see an example of when disabling styles makes a page inaccessible.
Perhaps Liam could use this as an example of when enabling styles
makes a page inaccessible.

By the way, there seems to be no Debian CSS2 offline reference. Just
the above CSS1...
