40407 - wide images cause text to disappear off side of page

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 35681

(Core :: Layout, defect, P3)

Description

[unapersson]

When an HTML page contains an image wider than the viewport, any
text on the page doesn't wrap within the viewport (the behaviour
standard to every browser I've ever used) but instead extends off
the edge of the page. So repeated use of the scrollbar is
required to read the text.

You wind up with a situation like this:

----------------
|   Page       |
|              |
|--------|     |
|Viewport|     |
|        |     |
| txttxt |txt  |
|------------  |
| Image  |  |  |
|------------  |
| txttxt |txt  |
----------     |
|              |
----------------

I would expect the text to wrap within the viewport,
no matter how wide the image happens to be.

The wide image increases the width of the page and the text before and after 
gets wrapped according to the new width.  This is correct layout behavior.  If 
it isn't please provide a reduced test case that is rendered differently by 
IE/Nav 4.X and Mozilla.  Thanks.

Marking invalid

Turns out it was a little more complicated than I thought, this only occurs 
when a CSS margin is set on the body. I'm attaching a test case which displays 
the problem. Works fine in NS4 and IE4 (I don't have IE5).
