From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; 0.8) Gecko/20010219 BuildID: 2001021904 The NASA's logo is shown splitted. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: just go to the above url and look at the display. Actual Results: NASA's logo is shown in two parts. Expected Results: NASA's logo is shown in one piece.
I should add that this happens because the page depends on a very precise sizing of the cell about the space shuttle (that's why the font size is set to 10px). As it happens, that cell comes out bigger in Mozilla than in NS 4.x or IE. If they remove the <p> </p> inside the <div> in the shuttle cell, it almost looks right.... Seeing this on Linux, so os -> all

I only see this problem if I increase my font size several times.
They have changed the text in the "Shuttle" box. It is now a lot shorter....
I just e-mailed kim.t.dismukes1@jsc.nasa.gov about the problem.

This still happens in Mozilla if I use Ctrl+= to increase the text size (or view->text size). It doesn't happen using similar features in Netscape 4 and Internet Explorer, because IE's and NS4's versions of the text-size feature do not affect text inside blocks with font-size set to an absolute pixel size.

reopening, if you change the text size in 2001101908 (sorry for the old bits), it is split in two.

The image still becomes split if I use Mozilla's text zoom feature, but that would happen with other browsers as well, so it doesn't need to be a Mozilla Evangelism issue.
