Take a look at the attached picture, you will notice at the bottom of each box there is a blue rectangle dangling. I have also seen this on the GameFAQs message boards.

However, I cannot replicate on a Windows PC or on a browser other than Firefox.

Reproducible: Always

According to zzxc on IRC, this is an Ubuntu theme engine bug.

Comment 5

[Matthew Middleton (:zzxc)]

For the record, the GTK theme here was Shiki-Colors

Comment 6

[Eric Appleman]

The error in question is related to the use of non-zero GtkRange::trough-border values.

Specifically, the Murrine version of Shiki-Colors, not the Clearlooks version.

Comment 8

[Eric Appleman]

Update: All GTK themes that use a non-zero value are affected, regardless of engine. Crux and Glider are 2 examples that are packaged with Ubuntu.

Be sure to refresh the page and look at the CC list box.

I'd appreciate it if you didn't close my bugs before I get a chance to further explain them.

Also, I can't reopen the other bug, it won't let me.

Furthermore, the Murrine dev/creator says this bug is not GTK or Murrine's bug, it's a Firefox bug.

Bug is now exposed by default in Ubuntu Karmic.

Eric -- you've marked bug 500368 as fixed.  Does that mean this bug is fixed, too?  (I'm unclear from comment 10 whether this bug and bug 500368 are actually duplicates or not -- it looks like they are, but in comment 10 / bug 500368 comment 2, you strongly objected to their being linked as duplicates for some reason.)

Closing as INCOMPLETE; not clear if there were any issues that remained here after comment 12. (In any case, this is probably a non-issue at this point given the time that has passed and how Firefox/GTK have evolved since this was filed.)
