Description John Sullivan 2006-09-17 07:02:09 PDT
To reproduce:
1. visit http://www.cnn.com
2. click one of the story titles in the "LATEST NEWS" section

Watch the page as it loads. First the entire contents of the page load, and look correct. A moment later, a banner ad appears at the top of the page, and the rest of the page shifts down. When this happens, a few pixels from the left side of the first character in the headline of the story are left behind in their previous position, about an inch above their new position. The first char in the headline is now slightly clipped on the left.

This did not occur on shipping Safari.

Screenshot showing problem

In the attached screenshot, the "S" from "Shoppers" is slightly clipped on the left, and the missing bits are to the left of the blue background behind "Home World U.S.".

Reduction - quirks mode

This test case is broken in shipping Safari as well as in TOT

Maybe the test case is reflecting a different issue then? The bit garbage problem I see does not occur on shipping Safari.

The "strict mode" flavor of the bug *is* a regression. I think that explains the regression on cnn.com.

Also failing manual-tests/left-overflow-repaint.html because of this. As noted in bug 11045, the problem is that tables' repaint rects don't account for cells' overflow.
