Description
Browser: Firefox 1.5.0.5 on Linux
Drupal: Latest CVS from 5 minutes ago
It is too difficult to explain what is happening here - so I have attached a short video clip.
Basically there are 3 problems:
1) Sometimes fieldsets do not open/close at all
2) Sometimes fieldsets do not open/close fully
3) Sometimes opening one fieldset will open or close another fieldset
#1
Drupal.org didn't take the upload...trying a tarballed version
#2
I did some other tests. Firefox on win32 seemed to work fine (although it still feels to me like it 'slows down' the interface a bit much).
Mozilla on linux was better than firefox on linux, but still had some display issues (see attached image).
#3
Here is a clip, showing more clearly what is happening with mozilla linux.
#4
Hmm. On my system Firefox 1.5.0.6 on WinXPsp2 collapsible fieldsets dont work at all. I only get the line and gray text (see attached png)
#5
I would agree. I have been having problems also. I am runnig firefox 1.5.0.4 on debian.
My biggest problem is that they do not open fully until I open another fieldset.
I wonder if this is a problem with jquery itself, because I have the same problems on the jquery site. When I click on the Configuring you download link.
#6
I also can not seem to close (or shrink to fieldsets)
#7
can you to clear the browser cache?
#8
Killes - this occurs even when the browser cache is cleared, and indeed even on a clean Firefox profile with no extensions loaded.
I also have some problems on the jQuery site, although it seems like it is mid upgrade right now, so it is difficult to tell if this is a jQuery bug.
#9
I will double check my cache, but I do not think that the cache is the problem. The reason that I say that is I noticed on a freshly (on new url) drupal devel site.
I will also notice that this is on a Althon 64bit machine running debian. It seems to work fine on a 32bit suse install that I have. I do not know if it is jquery, firefox, 64bit, or debian that is the problem.
#10
gecko problem. Thought it would be fringe enough to not affect us.
Here's the bug I made a while back.
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=348239
The simple fix is to remove the scrolling effect.
#11
a bug in an overhyped browser on a not-too-big marketshare OS on a still-not-ubiquitous archicture... why should we care?
#12
What a nonsens.
Can some JS person please look into this?
#13
I posted a testcase and some further tests over at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=348239
It looks like this is fixed on the latest Firefox beta, so is almost certainly not a Drupal or jQuery bug. However (despite chx misgivings) we may want to put in a one liner somewhere to disable fieldset animation for this specific browser (which could be removed in a few months when Firefox 2 is more mainstream). If nothing else it would be a shame to loose 100% browser compatability for Drupal - especially if this makes Drupal totally unusable for people (most likely Drupal developers) who are running a free OS on up-to-date hardware.
OFFTOPIC: Firefox may be overhyped, but show me the equivalent of the Web Dev. Toolbar, Firebug and Tamper Data on another browser! I would be totally stranded in my day to day work without these, and Tamper Data itself is responsible for making at least one Drupal core patch possible :)

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.5) Gecko/20060731 Ubuntu/dapper-security Firefox/1.5.0.5In my case this is fully working. No problem at all with collapsible fieldsets.
It seems that the diference between me and Grugnog2 as stated by is issue in mozilla is that he is using a 64bit processor
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-GB; rv:1.8.0.5) Gecko/20060731 Ubuntu/dapper-security Firefox/1.5.0.5Closing this one because it's a Firefox bug in a specific platform with a specific processor type.
