Dear friends;

This report is about the rendering of three images at [[m:wikt:yi:project:IRC]]
in Internet Explorer Version 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp:sp2_gdr.070227-2254 on Windows XP SP2 .

The most actual revision now is
http://yi.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=project:IRC&oldid=11588
where the table contains « dir ="ltr" » and renders as expected.

While creating olther revisions as
http://yi.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=project:IRC&oldid=11585
for unknown reasons you may see the middle picture in « Preview » but not when the page is saved.

Tonight I will look at these revisions in other browsers and add bug dependencies.

Best regards Reinhardt [[user:Gangleri]]

I suggest you also try to reproduce the bug in some other Right-To-Left wikis such as Persian or Arabic ones (like in their Sandbox).

Please see
http://fa.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=user:Gangleri/bugzilla/12639&oldid=963046
and
http://ps.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:%D7%9C%D7%A2%D7%A8%D7%99_%D7%A8%D7%99%D7%99%D7%A0%D7%94%D7%90%D7%A8%D7%98/bugzilla/12639&oldid=31143

This is the code from
http://yi.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=project:IRC&oldid=11585
where only the link to
[[m:wikt:yi:project talk:IRC]]
was adjusted.

The bug is specific to IE when the browser window is resized:

a) If you carefully set the widht of either the Farsi or Pashto page to the widht of the first example in the screen dump you will / may see all three images.
b) If you carefully set the widht of either the Farsi or Pashto page to the widht of the second example in the screen dump you will / may see *only two* images.

There are a lot of other known bugs related to « redraw » of BIDi content if a IE browser window is resized.

The bug is specific to IE when the browser window is resized. I could not reproduce this in Firefox, Konqueror, Opera.

Update Web browser.
Comment 5 Siebrand Mazeland 2009-06-04 11:35:35 UTC
Adding testme. Please test with Internet Explorer 8 and note the result here.
Comment 6 Huji 2010-10-26 19:11:35 UTC
I rechecked this bug now with IE7, and it looks fine. Does this still persist in other versions of IE?
Comment 7 Diederik van Liere 2011-12-05 19:18:28 UTC
I have checked this with IE9 and the problem does not exist as well. I think upgrading IE is the fastest solution :)
Comment 8 Amir E. Aharoni 2011-12-12 07:09:00 UTC
I tested all these pages with IE 6, 7, 8, and tried resizing windows, too. All the images were shown reasonably and the directionality was mostly OK too. (The "Chat!" button is a bit broken, but for a different reason.)
