if many keywords, in a meta information, m16 shows them in the browser
I was wrong - it isn't the meta, it is in the alt-element... the description is VERY long, mozilla shows it..
Summary: M16 shows meta-infos → M16 shows image-alt-text
Yep, it looks like there's some sort of overflow if the ALT string is too long. The strange thing is, when open the page in IE and do a Save As..., the resulting page opens fine in Mozilla. If I do a View Source, and save from that, then the page shows the ALT tags that it's not supposed to.

Triaging clayton's list: ------------------------------ Mozilla just displays ALT-content when SRC url is invalid ( nothing wrong about that ) instead of a borken image. Here is the reduced case: <html> <body text=yellow bgcolor=black> <img SRC="http://www.tolkiens-welt.purespace.de/fake.gif" ALT="Tolkien herr der angus" BORDER=0 height=40 width=40>Some text </body> </html> Btw, why would somebody have such a long string in the ATL content. Just curious :) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 41924 ***
