228100 - Attributes should honour -moz-pre-wrap

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Core :: CSS Parsing and Computation, defect)

Description

[Ian Neal]

As far as I can see currently attributes such as title do not honour a style of
-moz-pre-wrap which means ones with long text cannot be made to wrap.

Attributes shouldn't honor -moz-pre-wrap.  I'm not sure what you meant to file,
but this isn't it.

This was filed based on comments in bug 67127.  I think what you want is
-moz-pre-wrap somewhere in the XBL, plus a specified max-width coming from some
source that you need to figure out.

so doing 
<xul:label class="tooltip-label" xbl:inherits="value=label" style="whitespace:
-moz-pre-wrap; max-width: 64em;" flex="1"/>
should work?

That depends on the XBL binding for label and whether whatever it expands into
(a text box?) supports -moz-pre-wrap.
