fine, try the following:

2. Follow step 2 in comment 0

It appears td id "leftcolumn" gets 100% of the viewport (i.e the "Support
Contacts" is just outside view, to the right) when this occurs.

The behavior seems reproducible if a layout breakpoint is placed in that table
cell anywhere from immediately preceeding 
<div id="Hauptmenu" style="display:block;">

to the close of the cell.

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

jon, could you attach a testcase showing this reliably, if you have one?

Comment 5

[Andrew Schultz]

Attachment: testcase

With linux trunk 2004100506, the word "foo" is off the screen to the right.  It
should be within the window.

Comment 6

[Andrew Schultz]

this regresed between linux trunk 2004060206 and 2004060706

tables?

Comment 7

[jon rekai]

Bug 241454 and bug 237366 are table-related and were fixed during that time. 
(The former looks like a better candidate from a glance.)

Comment 8

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

In fact, this regressed between 2004-06-06-06 and 2004-06-07-06.  That would
definitely implicate bug 241454.

Roc, can you check this out?

Comment 9

[Bernd]

overflow frame -> xul frame -> xul frame can not compute MEW neither
mMaxmumWidth correctly during incr. reflow, this is a probably a dupe. After
looking into xul reflow I believe the only way to go is kick xul frames from
html reflow, robert has the bug 240276 to do this.

Comment 10

[Bernd]

the mew is bug 234593 the mMaximumWidth is bug 238064 just for reference.

Comment 11

[Robert O'Callahan (:roc) (email my personal email if necessary)]

It would be nice to have a workaround since the scrollframe changes aren't going
to happen soon.

Comment 12

[Bernd]

the patch in bug 234593 fixes the issue in the testcase the url is wfm

What does it mean "testcase is wfm"? 
I still have word "foo" outside visible area under Mozilla OS/2 build 2004102808

Comment 14

[Bernd]

this is now fixed with the patch in bug 234593
