Details

It appears that the <NOBR> tag used on the Ameritech Yellow Pages search page is
causing the text input box for phone number to cross table cell boundaries. Note
that this bug only manifests itself if the browser window width is smaller than
that of the tab
Assignee: karnaze → kipp
Kipp, in the following example, the cell's area frame is reporting a max element
width that is too small. Make the window very narrow and you'll see the problem.

<HTML>
<BODY>
 <FORM action="/search/client.cgi" method="GET">
  <TABLE border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#ffe030">
   <TR valign="top">
    <TD>
     <nobr><INPUT type="text" size="3" maxlength="3" name="npa"> - <INPUT
type="text" size="3" maxlength="3" name="nxx"> - <INPUT type="text" size="4"
maxlength="4" name="number"></nobr>
    </TD>
   <TR>
  </TABLE>
 </FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>

Inline elements were not computing the max-element-size.width when "white-space:
nowrap" was set. Now they do.
