131707 - Text is overlapping other text

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout, defect, P2)

Description

[Eugene Savitsky]

1. Load the page.
2. Scroll it down untill "If you develop..."
3. Look at the white words "plugin" and two "Download".

They are over the nearest words.

The code is: 

<style type="text/css">
<!--
a {  font-family: arial, verdana; color: #007c00; text-decoration: none; cursor:
hand}
a:hover {  font-family: arial, verdana; color: #ff0000; text-decoration: none;
cursor: hand}
-->
</style>

<a href=plugins.htm><font color=white>plugin</font></a>

IE and Opera shows it fine.

The overlap vanishes after reloading the page. I can't see a reason why the
words should in the first place. Confirming on linux 2002031721.

Possible, what I don't understand is that overlap.

Does it?  I don't see a fully specified font struct anywhere...

Changing the summary to avoid confusion. This link from the given URL for
example is overlapping the preceding text:
&#1088;&#1072;&#1079;&#1076;&#1077;&#1083;&#1077; <a href=skachat.htm><font color=white>&#1057;&#1082;&#1072;&#1095;&#1072;&#1090;&#1100;</font></a>
