Bugzilla – Bug 5739
Additional vertical spacing after the currently playing track
Last modified: 2007-10-09 13:40:23 UTC
In the new default skin, there is additional spacing only after the currently playing track. This is only noticeable if the artwork is turned off.
Created attachment 2238 [details] See the whitespace between track 4 (playing), and the next selected track
I'm not seeing this on FF. Is this with IE6? 7?
ok, seems to be IE6 (can't check IE7) and it involves the currentSong div, namely the "height: 34px;" in ie.css. However, the problem then is that the selectorMarker divs all overlap, leaving currentSong showing extra highlighting.
Yes, I discovered the problem on IE6. IE7 and FF are okay.
ah ok. There has been some discussion on whether continued support for IE6 is reasonable given it's plethora of unresolved issues with CSS, Ajax and basically anything that isn't specifically tailored to IE6. Now that IE7 has apparently been opened up as a high priority update (no longer requiring WGA validation) I expect IE6 will soon be gone aside from the corporate world unwilling to risk an update. This will probably fall into the "learn to live with it" bucket as it does take up a lot of resource time to make IE6 work exactly like everything else.
actually, since this is IE6 only, I'm going to merge with 5737 as it is a good bucket for evaluating the effort required to get IE6 fully supported. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 5737 ***
I am stuck, for now, with IE6 from my work PC. I guess many users accessing their server from work will be in a similar boat. However, your comment is not an unreasonable stance to take. Most home users I guess would upgrade to IE7, or use some other browser. As long as SC in IE6 is functional, superficial problems with styles are probably acceptable. Other skins can be used instead if it becomes a bigger issue.
yes, it also may be that most issues are trivial. Major problems might still be worth fixing so that IE6 still works in principle. vertical space and a few errant lines is something that can be lived with. Blank panes or failing JS responses, maybe not so much :)
