23035 - Hand changes between lines of wrapped links

Status: VERIFIED WONTFIX

(Core :: Layout, defect, P3)

Description

[Henrik Gemal]

If you go to www.krak.dk and have the sidebar on the links in the left side of
the page will wrap.
You have have "Dansk Industris" on one line and "Indkøbsbog" on the next line.

Now it possible to move your cursor in between the text and having the cursor
change from a link to nothing. This is not the case in Internet Explorer which
sees the link all the time.

This also causes another problem that the color of the links seems to not change
at the same time but a couple of miliseconds af each other making it look like
there sometimes are two links. Try moving the cursor up though the links and
down again.

I tend to think the current behavior might be better - and I imagine this would
be quite hard to change.  It's one of the consequences of implementing the CSS
inline formatting model correctly, I guess...

I'm gonna have to go with dbaron on this one.  Although it may not be the same
as IE the cursor correctly reacts only when over text.
