Wikipedia has a option to collapse (hide and show) the whole templates. However
Firefox 3b1 does not work and the template kept opened.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Open http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Strength_training_exercises with Firefox 2, you will notice that you get a hide and show button and the template is collapsed.
  2. Open the same url with Firefox 3b1, you will notice that the template is not collapsed and you do not get a hide and show button.

Actual Results:
Template is not collapsed and you do not have a hide and show option

Expected Results:
Template should be opened in a collapse mode and you should have a hide and show button.


Version: unspecified
Severity: normal

Problem seems to have been a mysterious "IE bug fix" in en.wikipedia.org's customized MediaWiki:Common.js, which has bogus detection and so incorrectly triggers on Firefox 3.0 (as noted on the Mozilla Bugzilla entry).

I've commented that out and requested that if it's restored it should be done with correct detection: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Common.js&diff=174854479&oldid=172125518
