screenshot showing displaced navigation pane for Bug 28871 (77.34 KB, image/jpeg)

Description Ningauble 2011-05-07 12:42:09 UTC
The Bugzilla navigation pane (logo, navigation links, etc.) is displaying overlaid on the main content area instead of in the left side pane. I started seeing this a couple days ago using IE7 on Vista, but I don't visit here often so I don't know how long this has been going on.

Is this still a issue? We havn't had many reports about it so I'm almost willing to invalid it unless it can be confirmed as still happening.

Yes, I am still seeing this consistently using IE7.

Bugmeister is the new Bugzilla maintainer and default assignee.

Exact browser = Internet Explorer 7.0.6001.18000.
Screenshot attached.
Note also that the nav pane contents are in the foreground: nav links overlay and mask links in the main pane.
Comment 8 Andre Klapper 2012-10-09 13:32:57 UTC
Cannot reproduce with MS IE 8.0.6001 on Windows XP SP3.
Currently I don't plan to investigate. http://stats.wikimedia.org/wikimedia/squids/SquidReportClients.htm states that MSIE7 has 3.64% share (HTML requests).
Comment 9 Antoine "hashar" Musso (WMF) 2012-12-09 19:04:41 UTC
Let close this bug report, users should get a more recent browser and IE7 is not worth any time investment.

Comment 11 Andre Klapper 2013-07-26 15:51:17 UTC
Might be the very same underlying reason as https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=392367
Comment 12 Ningauble 2013-07-26 16:22:59 UTC
I am happy to report that this now WORKSFORME with the above described browser.

It is a relief that I no longer face a catch-22 dilemma when I am advised to report wiki compatibility issues on an incompatible bug tracker.
Comment 13 Andre Klapper 2013-10-05 15:14:22 UTC
I cannot reproduce this problem anymore either with a IE6 and IE7 emulator. Yay.
