dojox.DataGrid autoHeight parameter causes infinite Loop/flickering/100% Cpu utilization

[vlad]

Attached is a test file (which is a copy of one of the dojox/Grid tests where autoHeight parameter is added).

Also attached the json store test file. A test store form dojox/grid/tests/support/test_data_date.js can be used. Only make sure that the number of items data store is 5 or less.

Load the provided HTML and try to edit the editable column Message.

You will see a flickering error on FireFox? 3.0.10 (win XP) you will get a strange property not present error in IE7.

Also, and this is a different bug probably (not caused by autoHeight) but in firefox the 'Rich' editor for the 'Message column' is not rich at all.

This issue is critical to my application because I cannot layout the grid without autoHeight. Because my grids live within a <td> table cell and when I add rows to the grid it expands the table cell to fit the content and provides no scrollbars in the surrounding content pane to see any rows below the cell with the grid. So I use autoHeight to constrain the grows of the grid within a table cell.

I can try and take a look at this - but probably not for the 1.4 timeframe.

Moving my tickets to future, as I am not currently working on them.

Fixed with the same patch for ​#11101

(In [22903]) Fixes #9261, 10543, 11101. Add a new boolean to updatePageHeight to avoid a deadlock from calling sizeChange. Proxy commit for evan (IBM, CCLA) !strict
