The page fails to wrap around properly.  Maybe that is because of overly wide
text entry boxes or something.  I believe traditional Netscape would allow text
to wrap to the window width even if some page elements (text entry boxes,
preformatted text, images?) stuck out further to the right.  It certainly
enhances readability.

Text not wrapping around is a frequent problem with displaying many kinds of
pages with Mozilla.  Just about any ugly layout is better than having to scroll
horizontally to read the text on a page.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to page
2. look at it
3.

Actual Results:  the page displayed, text extending past the right margin of the
window
Marking bug as INVALID.

This is a bug in bugzilla, really.  What's going on here is that the entire body
of the page is wrapped in a table.  If it weren't wrapped in a table, we would
do what you want.  (And it's the PRE text near the top that's making it wide, I
think.)
