Description Jonathan Dawkins 2007-05-04 11:15:14 PDT
I've noticed it so far only on Livejournal update pages with large text areas. Single-line text fields don't seem to replicate this.

If you type out text in a text area and reach the bottom of the area, white blanks can be seen where you hit the spacebar. Trivial cosmetic problem.

Thanks for the bug report, Jonathan.  Could you post a screenshot of the issue?  Thanks!

Sounds like this may be a dupe of bug 11966?

As a side note, I haven't updated to the new nightly build (5/5/07, 21272). Also, apparently it's not just spaces but also some characters.

It's definitely similar, but the Bug 11966 only had one or two divots on the left.  This appears to happen on every character typed.

I cannot reproduce the problem. I think it was fixed with fix for bug 11966.
