1. CSS provides a width option, that can be used for most html codes. IE works very well this option, however Mozilla seems to have a different understanding of it. It doesn't take the width option in stylesheet serious, i.E. a.link {width=100px;} IE works with it fine, Mozilla doesn't take care (ignores it) and thats not the only one. Can you give me answer to that problem
2. PDF hanlding: Due to my modem connection the pdf download in a tab takes a while, but even with a fast connection and a big 
pdf you can't do anything this download blocks everything even tab browseing is not possible. You have to wait until its finished.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open a pdf in a tab 
2.Try to switch to a other tab
3.
Actual Results:  
1. CSS witdh option doesn't work
2. Blocks every access to the tabs

Expected Results:  
1. CSS width option should be taken seriously
2. Blocking of tab should be stopped

None

One issue per bug report please.

issue 1. (width)
can you attach a test case illustrating this ?
Note: width does NOT apply to inline elements (you seem to apply width to a <a> element). IE is wrong in doing this.
