292727 - Page formatting goes extremely wide Resource links on far right need to scroll horiz

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Layout, defect)

Description

[Jim Jeffery not reading bug-mail 1/2/11]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050502 Firefox/1.0+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050502 Firefox/1.0+

Site during loading will jump extremely wide shoving the 'Resource links' off to
the far right side of page and creating a horiz scroll bar.  Page appears to
'double' in size horizontally.

This began as near as I can with the Trunk builds on 05012005 (May 1) 


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load the test URL and observe the formatting is way wide.
2.
3.



Expected Results:  
Formatted page that does not require use of Horiz scroll bar.  MSNBC has been
properly formatted up until the trunk builds on May 1, 2005.

But do not know if this is caused by misrendering (firefox error) or bad site
design (msnbc error).

Welp it works on Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8b2)
Gecko/20050422 Firefox/1.0+

but doesn't work on Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8b2)
Gecko/20050503 Firefox/1.0+

so it's a fairly recent regression.

The results are now the same for me with:
- Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US;rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050422
Firefox/1.0+
- Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414
Firefox/1.0.3
- Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050503
Firefox/1.0+
The horizontal scrollbar that used to appear when visiting http://www.msnbc.com
witht a 20050502 build is no longer present.
Jim, are you positive that you have downloaded the *very latest* beast build?
This patch landed within the last hour or so..

Steve, sorry...I jumped the download it appears, I saw the check in, and
downloaded the build I thought had the fix,  guess it did not make that one, but
this last one at 1102 UTC is OK. 

Close it, and thanks much........  I'm still learning.

I still get the bug with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US;
rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050503 Firefox/1.0+ . Not reopening for now because maybee i
don't understand where to get the correct build.

rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050504 Firefox/1.0+ for me.
