If, on a multiple monitor system, the browser window is resized to be wider than
the main monitor, only the portion of the webpage with width equal to the width
of the man monitor is displayed.  The rest of the window is filled with the
pinstripe background.  However, it looks like the page layout is still being
performed for the full size of the window (so the text re-wraps as the window is
made larger, but the visible area of the window doesn't change, if that makes
any sense).

Note that the web page displays properly on the second monitor if the window is
moved (ie, the problem isn't spanning monitors).  There's only a problem is the
window is very wide (winder than the main monitor).

Mozilla displays correctly.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Have two monitors.
2.  Resize browser window so it fully spans both monitors (window completely
fills both monitors, as much as possible).
3.  Observe how the webpage is cutoff

Actual Results:  
Saw pinstripe backround on second monitor

Expected Results:  
Displayed webpage (just like Mozilla).
Quite possibly a dup. Mozilla has long had problems with multiple monitors, at
least on Mac.
