Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 890692

(Core :: SVG, defect)

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/24.0 (Beta/Release)

Steps to reproduce:

create SVG <text /> element, create a <tspan /> element as a child of it, where the tspan has a defined textLength.  When rendered the length of the tspan should be the length specified.


Actual results:

text is rendered as if no textLength is specified on the tspan


Expected results:

The fiddle illustrates the issue an how it should render (via a raster content of a proper implementation of this case) http://jsfiddle.net/pUavF/5/
The text in the second boxes with text string "textLength in tspan" illustrate the example SVG, with the correct behavior shown in the IE raster image where the tspan text "textLength" fully fills the extents of the olive green rectangle.
