Summary <span> in word-spaced text breaks width calculation, causes overflow
mitz
Reported 2005-08-27 03:41:46 PDT
When there's a <span> that ends with a space in text with word-spacing!=0, some width calculations are wrong, and as a result the line breaks too late and text overflows. See testcase for example.

The current way of handling word-spacing, which is to apply it a-postriori in many different places, seems somewhat problematic to me. With the exception of negative word-spacing, I can't see what's wrong with applying it during text width calculation (i.e. in -[WebTextRenderer floatWidth...] and such ; whenever they decide that something is a space and has the width of a space, they should add word-spacing to its width). Currently, some spaces (mostly leading spaces) are initially given the width of a normal space. I tried this approach in my first patch for bug 4672, but ran into problems with negative spacing. I think I'll give it another try, because I think it could simplify things significantly.

Comment on attachment 4654 [details] Proposed patch Passes all layout tests except fast/css/word-space-extra.html, where the new result is the correct one.
