• Component: New Bugs
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

reduced testcase

Steps:
Go to http://www.mofa.gov.sa/

II Issue:
The content of the page is spread (there are huge gaps between divs/table cells).

III Conclusion:
The items spread over the page because marquee tag is too long in Chrome and Safari.

The width of marquee tag's container table is 416px, so in IE and FF, the marquee is also limited to 416px, but in chrome and safari, the marquee extends its width because of its content table's long width.

IV Other Browsers:
IE7: ok
FF3: ok

V Nightly tested : 47639

Bug in Chromium : http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=15326

I am able to reproduce this issue in Safari Technical Preview 152 where this marque element is going beyond viewport and it is not centred and contained like other browsers (Chrome Canary 107 and Firefox Nightly 106).

Chrome bug listed in "Comment 0" is WONT FIX and suggested that it was fixed in Chrome 51 (post-Webkit in Blink).

Changing this to "New".

Mostly probably this commit fixed it in Blink:
