Testcase including -moz-hidden-unscrollable
843 bytes, text/html
Details 
This is happening on the Netscape_20000922_BRANCH and Trunk:

The caret is not clipped in TextAreas with style="overflow: hidden".

To reproduce:

1. Load the attatched test case.
2. Click in the "Textarea With Overflow Hidden" textarea.
3. Type several characters with no spaces until you continue past the right edge
of the textarea.

Notice how the characters stop rendering, but the caret still moves as you type,
even outside the textarea.

a note from my comments in bug 56988 :-

Go to the following testcase - 
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/showattachment.cgi?attach_id=19076 
Now, copy-paste the text in the following lines, within the textarea. Let it 
overflow. You will notice that the cursor continues outside the textarea.
If you press the 'backspace' key the cursor starts deleting backwards, leaving 
the first character on each line undeleted. Try deleting using 'backspace' first 
and then 'del'.

This bug need to be fixed.

<html>
<body>
<textarea style="width:100;height:100;overflow:hidden" onscroll="alert
('hey')"></textarea>
</body>
</html>

Tried the above code and forcefully played with textarea then it crashed. I 
understand textarea component is severly incomplete but to me crasher shouldnt 
be released with Mozilla 1.0. Also, as far as I can recall, there was a 
discussion on scripting textarea scrolling behavior on overflow:hidden which was
denied to be implemented so far;however, is it possible to at least fire 
onscroll event and scrolling direction as a parameter when the textarea is on 
overflow:hidden?


    
    

    
  
Well, for me it is a pain, that this bug is still present in release 1.0! :-(((

Because trying to write a SMS via http://www.dialing.de (a very popular German
SMS-service; see my bug 133776 for details!), still will cause Mozilla 1.0 (!!!)
to just freeze or crash even Mozilla 1.0!!! (Just try to type up to 160 chars in
the input-field, move the cursor, use DEL, BACKSPACE ecc, and you can reproduce
it every time >:-(( )

This is no longer reproducible in current builds, as far as I can tell... (not
event with the bug 243588 changes).

    
    

    
  
Yes, I too can't seem to reproduce the bug with the testcases, so I guess this
one should be marked WORKSFORME?

Ok, tested on all 3 platforms (Boris uses Linux), so marking WFM then.
