User-Agent: Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8 If you go to "http://www.halifax.co.uk/creditcards/balance_transfer.shtml" and then select the "Online" button (top right) and then the "Start" button. The text in the resulting window is not rendered correctly. This incorrect rendering also occurs in the latest version of Mozilla. In the latest Opera and IE6 the text is rendered fine. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to "http://www.halifax.co.uk/creditcards/balance_transfer.shtml" 2. Select the "Online" button at the top right of the window. 3. Select the "Start" button. Actual Results: The text before the fields in the resulting window overlaps. The latest version of Mozilla also displays in the same way. IE6 and Opera display fine. Expected Results: Non overlapping text.
If you get the same thing in Mozilla, then don't file it as a Firefox-specific bug. ->Browser/Layout

Summary: Overlapping text on selecting "Online" button (top right)in window. → Overlapping text on selecting "Online" button (top right)in window.
Version: unspecified → Trunk
The text (in black) is in a span with display:block and height:30px (and no specified overflow so it defaults to visible). Apparently Opera and IE are ignoring the display, and therefore also the height since span is normally inline and height doesn't apply to inlines. Mozilla's rendering is correct, -> Invalid

It's worse, actually. IE simply mis-implements height (on blocks) and Opera has copies that bug in quirks mode.
