The text in the DIV elements comes out of the boundary specified by the width
property.

Try this html snippet, the red background is not coming properly.



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Try this snippet

<HTML>
<BODY>
<DIV style ="position:absolute; left:300px; background-color:red;width:20px">
asdajk shd ajksdh ajksdh akjsdh
asjkdjsdhjskhdjkshdjskhdksjdhkjshdjkshdsjkhdsjkdhsjkhd</DIV>
</BODY>
</HTML>


Actual Results:  
Red background is not covering whole of the text

Expected Results:  
Red background should cover whole of the text.
Mozilla's rendering is correct. The div and its background are 20px wide, but
the text overflows the div. See http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visufx.html#overflow
