16040 - Form TEXTAREA wordwrap incorrect

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 12984

(Core :: Layout: Form Controls, defect, P3)

Description

[s.marshall]

Word wrap can be incorrect in TEXTAREAs. Sometimes spaces appear at the start of
a line.


to reproduce (I'm using the current nightly build):
1. Go to above URL
2. Scroll down to end of page
3. In the form textfield, enter text: "How's this edit box work now? Is it any
better? Can it wordwrap more than two lines? Well, yes, but wrap is stil"


Expected result, showing linebreaks as [\n]:

How's this edit box work now? Is it[\n]
any better? Can it wordwrap more than[\n]
two lines? (etc)

Actual result:

How's this edit box work now? Is it[\n]
any better? Can it wordwrap more than[\n]
 two lines? (etc)

^ initial space

same bug occurs in all textfields of course.

this is probably an easily fixed wrap bug but I couldn't find a bug report on it
(hope this isn't a duplicate, if so, sorry).
