Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 47710

(Core :: Layout: Block and Inline, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040707 Firefox/0.9.2

I experienced while making my site (which validates as XHTML 1.1 and CSS) that
divs which are scroll or auto overflow, do not take the padding-bottom into count.

Maybe it's a thing with using ex as a unit there -- but it really ought to work
in that case too, anyway.

Attachment: A screenshot with an overflow:auto div

Of interest is the last paragraph of text in the teal box and how there is no
space below it.

Relevant code:

#content {
