ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Windows XP SP2
A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
When the META tag "meta http-equiv" is included in the HEAD of some HTML, the BODY fails to get rendered. If it's removed, the BODY does get rendered.
STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Here's the failing HTML:
<html><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Exchange Server">
<style>EmailQuote { margin-left: 1pt; padding-left: 4pt; border-left: #800000 2px solid; }</style></head>
<body>
<font size="2"><div class="PlainText">Your message was read on Monday, July 07, 2008 7:38:24 AM (GMT-08:00) Pacific Time (US & Canada).</div></font>
</body>
</html>
Your message was read on Monday, July 07, 2008 7:38:24 AM (GMT-08:00) Pacific Time (US & Canada).
The following modified HTML works fine:
<html><head>
<meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Exchange Server">
<style>EmailQuote { margin-left: 1pt; padding-left: 4pt; border-left: #800000 2px solid; }</style></head>
<body>
<font size="2"><div class="PlainText">Your message was read on Monday, July 07, 2008 7:38:24 AM (GMT-08:00) Pacific Time (US & Canada).</div></font>
</body>
</html>
Your message was read on Monday, July 07, 2008 7:38:24 AM (GMT-08:00) Pacific Time (US & Canada).
Write the first HTML to a file "test_file.txt" and run the following Java application from the same directory:
---------------------------------------------------cut here-----------------------------------
import javax.swing.*;
import java.io.*;
public class chiaratest
{
JFrame frame;
JPanel panel;
JEditorPane pane;
RandomAccessFile file;
String text;
byte[] buf;
public chiaratest(String input_parm)
{
frame= new JFrame();
pane = new JEditorPane();
pane.setContentType("text/html");
try
{
file = new RandomAccessFile("test_file.txt", "r");
buf = new byte[(int) file.length()];
file.readFully(buf);
text = new String(buf);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
System.out.println("e = " + e);
System.exit(0);
}
pane.setText(text);
panel = new JPanel();
panel.add(pane);
frame.getContentPane().add(panel);
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);
}
public static void main(String args[])
{
new chiaratest(null);
}
}
---------------------------------------------------cut here-----------------------------------
If you remove the first META tag and its data, the text will display.
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
The test application should display the following:
Your message was read on Monday, July 07, 2008 7:38:24 AM (GMT-08:00) Pacific Time (US & Canada).
ACTUAL -
Nothing was displayed
REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
