Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 221684

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[Doug Hockin]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040803 Firefox/0.9.3
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040803 Firefox/0.9.3

When there are lots of tabs open, the close tab icon overlaps the last tab,
and is either in front or behind the last tab.  Happens just at the point where
the tabs have been shrunken to their minimum size and no more tabs will be
displayed.  Is worse (more overlap) when the last tab has a wide icon.
Hard to get at the close button if the overlap is large.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Open tabs until the last one overlaps the close button.  Use a page with a
wide icon to get the maximal effect.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
It overlaps.

Expected Results:  
No overlap.

Bug 196438 maybe?

Yes, looks like it's probably the same. I'm not familiar with how to handle the
administration of bugs that are on both FireFox and Mozilla.  I'll let you handle
the details.

Please update the following...
Status: Confirm and change status to New
OS: All (I expirence this on XP also)
Severity: Trivial

I'm gonna request this as a blocking 1.0 but I dont see many users having 40+
tabs open...so most likely wont be made a blocker.
