In the page at http://members.tripod.de/ngtestpage/test.html I use
firstChild.nodeValue. If I exchange the value by JavaScript of the div and the
string was longer than the string before then the string was not complete
displayed, it's so long than the string before.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.exchange value with firstChild.nodeValue
2.
3.

Actual Results:  If I exchange the value of the div and the string was longer
than the string before then the string was not complete displayed, it's so long
than the string before.

Expected Results:  The exchanged value should displayed in the right width.

worksforme, linux trunk build 2002-05-10-21.  I see the 5-character nodeValues
render correctly....

Does this problem happen with rc2?

OK, confirmed that the trunk works fine but the branch gets this wrong... Over
to layout -- the DOM is doing the right thing, since you can see the leftmost
pixels of the other chars.

1.0 branch is basically dead; once 1.4 ships it _will_ be dead.  wontfix, since
the trunk is fine.
