154980 - Text overlapping itself near end of line (in very specific conditions)

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 148399

(Core :: Layout, defect)

Description

[Thomas Andrews]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; en-US; rv:1.1a) Gecko/20020611
BuildID:    2002061104

When my window is a specific size (I'll upload the screen shot - Mozilla should
have some way to "capture" its current display sizing setup to ease reproduction
in circumstances like this) and I visit mozilla.org's front page with Mozilla
1.1a, the text in the italic link:

    <a href="http://www.mozilla.org/mozorg.html"><i>Mozilla at a Glance</i></a>.

in the "Download Mozilla" section gets mangled, with "Mozilla" and "at a"
overlapping.

Obviously browser width is the dominant factor - it's clearly related to line
wrapping.  Basically, you want to resize the width until the line should wrap
between "Mozilla" and "at a glance."



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Resize the page to exactly match my screenshot
2. Load page and check the "Mozilla at a Glance" text.
3. Resize several times to make sure text breaks properly
between "Mozilla" and "at a Glance" when it should.
