Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 268134

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050223 Firefox/1.0.1

If you have a look at:
http://www.turtlenecksoftware.com/bah-humbug.htm
with FF and IE.

Now IE displayes it properly, the problem with FF is, it doesn't put the 'bah,
humbug' text into a div as big as the screen, which can be scrolled up and down
from the inside of the div.

I suspect the problem is with the 	overflow: auto; property in the stylesheet.

The webpage validates css, and html.
There is a problem with the html validation because of the charset, but this can
be fixed by placing:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
In the head section.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open up the website
http://www.turtlenecksoftware.com/bah-humbug.htm

Actual Results:  
The problem.

Expected Results:  
Displayed the text in a div field, the size of the screen, with internal scrolling.
