Find-in-page draws yellow highlight wrong when CSS3 multi-column support is used See screenshot. I have this in my UA CSS: pre { -webkit-column-width: 600px; height: 97%; } (For viewing guitar tabs nicely)

These "selections" get the wrong position as well: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Reflist/Safari_testcase Clicking the [Ref] should highlight the corresponding reference in the list (try with [1]), but instead (try [150]) jumps to the "old" position of this references before the "columnizing". The issues are not identical, but are likely based on the same core problem.

The Web Inspector has the same highlight issue when trying to highlight the corresponding DOM element.

This problem is fixed in Safari 5 and Chrome 5.
