Black strip

Unread post by Sajjan » 2012-10-21, 17:13

I have PM 15.2 Portable installed.
I have add on Adblock Plus 2.1.2 installed.
I enclose herewith a snapshot.
Moonchild you will notice there is a black strip showing in this snapshot sir.
Not that it makes any difference to me but it does not show before I updated PM to 15.2 also when I log to same site in FF.

I loaded up PM 15.2 Portable and logged into several places, and my Picasa album. No black strips showing and it works as expected - I also have Adblock Plus 2.1.2, but as Moonchild asks, a working link would help. :)

Black strip must be the problem with Nvidia FXAA and AMD's MLAA, my assumption.

I had a look at this - it's Yahoo's website that is the problem. the "Yahoo games" logo is put in a frame of its own as a raw image:

Code: Select all

<frame name="games_logo" src="http://l.yimg.com/a/i/us/ga/sl_3/us_mast.gif" marginwidth="5" marginheight="0" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" border="0" framespacing="0">
Which means that Pale Moon will display it with the default raw image background color which is dark. This is Yahoo's web design issue - they assume that every browser will use a light background for raw images. Firefox will also display this not as intended. They should make sure that the frame is a proper HTML page with intended background color and the image, not just using a raw image like they are now. Pale Moon is doing what it is supposed to be doing ;)

Solution: write Yahoo with a bug report about their website.

Moonchild Sir,
It was not that strip which was an issue for it hardly makes any difference while visiting there.
What is more important is that the kind of attention you and your team displayed that matters.
PM is a lovely creation anyway but you and your team are who make this what it is.
Kudos.
Best of luck Sir.
