User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051107 Firefox/1.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051107 Firefox/1.5

When clicking on an A tag that links to # and has a CSS attribute, the dotted box around the link encapsulates the new object, too. See example at http://chaoticevil.ca/.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on link while object tag hovers near it

Actual Results:  
Look at the dotted box around it, as it encapsulates the new object

Expected Results:  
Dotted box should only encapsulate the link itself

If this isn't an Issue anymore (especially with a more recent Firefox Version), please close this Bug as WORKSFORME.
Else attach a Testcase using https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?bugid=316439&action=enter

I can't even find the code that caused this anymore. Setting as resolved.
