GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 138886
<inlinegraphic> renders badly in help
Last modified: 2005-04-17 17:00:22 UTC
In the xml files, there are many cases where <inlinegraphic> is nested inside <guiicon>. This causes the html graphics to be beheaded (when viewed using Mozilla, at least), making them unrecognizeable. Removing the <guiicon> elements cures this, but causes the graphics not to be centered with respect to the text.
I'll have a look at it. The use of these mentioned tags are a bit inconsistent, so it might be helpful to look over the sources.
Could you please post a screenshot of this missbehaviour? I looked at docbook.org: http://docbook.org/tdg/en/html/guiicon.html, where a nested <inlinegraphic> is suggested for "graphic or text icon that appears in a graphical user interface". Maybe your issue is more a CSS issue?
Created attachment 26566 [details] illustration of problem I don't have any issue with the logic, the problem is that in Mozilla they come out looking like this.
Not in my copy of mozilla nor in mozilla-firefox. You should probably get a copy of mozilla that has this bug fixed.
Hmm. I am using Mozilla 1.4.1 from Fedora Core 1, which is only 6 months old. A check with Konqueror shows that it gets this right but breaks hideously on other elements. I can't try with IE; has anybody? I realize that these are not Gimp issues, but it seems like it would be useful to know which browsers are capable of rendering the help correctly.
I tested Mozilla-1.6 and Firefox-0.8 and both seem to render it correctly.
I tried a mozilla 1.3.1 debian build on an old woody installation and saw the problem by myself. I think it's a rendering problem of mozilla, because i tried it with Opera (Linux) and Internet Explorer 5.5 on a windows box and they looked fine.
