When filling in a form for my file management system (www.fasterfiles.com) I
accedently pasted a multi line block of text (from microsoft notepad) into a
single line text input box. The box appeared to spill onto multiple lines
instead of truncating the text at the end of line one. I came to this conclusion
because when I highlighted the text it appeared to scroll up, and a different
input was shown.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Copied multiple line test from a file (from notepad)
2. Pasted it into the single line form input box

Actual Results:  
I initially could not reproduce the bug but I have now reproduced it several times .

Expected Results:  
Mozilla should have truncated the text at the end of line one.

The theme I am using is Lopburi Flat.
