Details

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.1 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20020421 Debian/1.2.1-2 BuildID: 20020520 when you write long word on page, it forces mozilla to make extremely wide page. solution would be to set character limit on which are words splitted. better solution: TeX word spitting (and paragraph formatting?) algorithm. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. write 10000 a on page 2. view page in mozilla :-)
see bug 95067 BTW : a word splitting algorithm is language and context-specific. I don't think a general solution is possible, but we should at least try to split on spaces, ­ hard-hyphens, etc ...
