HFCS: effika’s blog

A kick-ass time hanging out with friends this week, including learning tons of card games with Julie and Allie and a wedding shower where I’m dressed in a toilet paper gown, and what do I decide to write about? SeaMonkey stuff!

Ok, so SeaMonkey 1.0.4 came out pretty recently. I upgraded from 1.0.2 (1.0.3 was replaced so quickly I didn’t even notice it was out) and everything seemed cool, until I did anything that refreshed the page— switch tabs, start scrolling, ect. After that the page started jiggling up and down very quickly by just a few pixels. Since my monitor is on the fritz I thought it might be that, but the chrome wasn’t moving. I eventually found the problem in my userchrome.css file:

toolbarbutton.bookmark-item > .toolbarbutton-icon
{
   display: none !important;
}

That bit gets rid of the little bookmark icon next to the titles of the bookmarks on my Personal Toolbar Folder. Without a graphic there something kooky happens with the height of the chrome and the page being displayed gets the jitters. So I just did what I did to make the search-button graphic-less without having to modify the theme: tell SeaMonkey to use a transparent gif!

/* Hide bookmark icons in the Personal Toolbar */

toolbarbutton.bookmark-item > .toolbarbutton-icon
{
   list-style-image : url(”transparentpixel.gif”) !important;
}

/*Fix the huge space this leaves (since display: none is buggy) */

.bookmark-item > .toolbarbutton-icon
{
   width: 0px !important;
}

And as long as there’s an image there, the height of the toolbar doesn’t seem to be a problem.
