Description Tisza Gergő 2009-09-28 09:19:21 UTC
Opening a protected page as an anonymous user results in the textbox containing the page source being shifted to the left by ~130px (IE8/WinXP, 1200x800).
Comment 1 Derk-Jan Hartman 2010-03-15 15:23:06 UTC
It seems that the indent is about 10em (the width of the left sidebar). This probably means that it is the hasLayout issue of Internet Explorer. If so, this can easily be tested by setting zoom:1 on the element (in this case the textarea).
Comment 2 Tisza Gergő 2010-03-15 15:38:48 UTC
AFAIK there is no hasLayout concept in IE8. At any rate, setting zoom:1 on the textarea (via the developer toolbar) has no effect.
Comment 3 Derk-Jan Hartman 2010-03-15 16:07:26 UTC
Yeah been experimenting a bit more with this. It appears that on "view source", IE8 switches from IE8 mode to IE8 compatibility view. So that is where the problem is.
Comment 4 Trevor Parscal 2010-04-27 23:14:57 UTC
This affects IE7 and IE8 in "compatability mode". Not vanilla IE8.

Comment 7 Andre Klapper 2013-04-02 20:22:25 UTC
Trying IE 7.0 on Windows XP on browserstack.com , the source code box on https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&action=edit and http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?action=edit&useskin=vector look fine.

Cannot reproduce, please reopen if this is still a problem.
