Idea warns that the "blue" div has an empty body and offers a quick"fix" to collapse it:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
    <head>
        <style type="text/css">
            .green {
                height: 40px;
                background-color: green;
            }
            .blue {
                height: 30px;
                background-color: blue;
            }
            .red {
                height: 70px;
                background-color: red;
            }
        </style>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div class="green">Green</div>
        <div class="blue"></div>
        <div class="red">Red</div>
    </body>
</html>

However after the "fix" the div is no longer visible at all! (At least on Firefox 2 - have not tried other browsers.

I was trusting Idea here and did apply the quickfix without immediately checking the result.
Two days later I had a nice debug session trying to find out wtf broke some of my pages.
