Two errors:
While using a very large font-size, trying to mark some of the
text in one of the tables creates does not mark the entire text.
For a screenshot see:

Also, at the end of the page, some of the words get caught up in eachother.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load the page
2. Choose "text-size 200%" under "View->Text Size"
3. Scroll down to the two instances.

Expected Results:  The second text field should have had a line-break or
similar, right?

The text is using some CSS and HTML4.0, but I don't think it should
be too obscure for Mozilla.
I have noticed this bug on older releases as well.
I think the selection problem is a dup of bug 99937, and I cannot cause the
overlapping-text problem. 

It is one of those 'fix it and I will chop off your head, don't fix it and I
will chop off your head' bugs, I think.

Unable to reproduce the selection problem, but saw overlapping text consistently
at only one location in the page.  Creating screenshot attachment.
Attached file reduced testcase
about the testcase... set text zoom at 100 %, load page (testcase), set zoom to
200 %. 
viewing with 200 % when entering, displays the page corretcly!!!
Will someone please set this bug as confirmed !!

I could recreate the overlapping text problem by visiting the page, but not with
the testcase.  I am working on a new testcase.
Attached file Simplified Testcase
The old testcase was not showing the bug as it was just a cut and paste of one
part of the page, so I have made this one which seems to show the bug properly.
The new testcase I just attatched seems to show the bug properly.
Just make sure you are in 100% view, open the testcase and change to 200% view.
If you are already in 200% view when you open the testcase or reload once you
are in 200% view the page displays as it should.

The second testcase is still broken for me on a fresh Linux CVS build.
Keywords: testcase
OS: Windows 98 → All
Can reproduce bug with both testcases, but only when using a window width < 800px
or so, build 2002-03-22-03 on Windows NT.
Under Mozilla 0.9.7 and 0.9.8 I could produce the bug only with the second
testcase, and just by increasing the zoom.

Now (using Mozilla 0.9.9) the second testcase doesn't show the bug if I increase
the zoom unless I first turn the sidebar on or I reduce the width of the Mozilla
window.

Also, the first testcase now shows the bug, but only if I first reduce the width
of the window, not if I turn the sidebar on.

Strange.
Bug still occurs when zooming "Simplified Testcase" to 300%
2002-08-24-04 trunk Linux.
I cannot reproduce this on a current linux trunk build, at various window sizes
and zoom levels. Is this still a problem?
I'm seeing it with 1.4a, don't know about trunk
Still occurs, 2004-01-16-08 trunk Linux after zooming to 450%
