Description scroggo 2008-08-18 08:38:17 PDT
As of August 18, 2008, if you go to http://www.greyhound.com/home/, underneath the large header TICKETS (and to the right), there is an html <select> element for the date, directly underneath the subheader "Departing on".  If you set that to a date in the double digits, the second digit is clipped.

Possible dup of bug 14454
Comment 2 Frances 2024-04-23 14:30:57 PDT
I don't think this is a bug.

The width of the tickets has to be wider in order to see all numbers.

Using https://web.archive.org/web/20080818023837/http://www.greyhound.com/home/:

If you increase the width to 100 for using the Web Archive here: <select name="day0" id="day0" class="clsDayArea"><option value="1">1</option><option value="2">2</option><option value="3">3</option><option value="4">4</option><option value="5">5</option><option value="6">6</option><option value="7">7</option><option value="8">8</option><option value="9">9</option><option value="10">10</option><option value="11">11</option><option value="12">12</option><option value="13">13</option><option value="14">14</option><option value="15">15</option><option value="16">16</option><option value="17">17</option><option value="18">18</option><option value="19">19</option><option value="20">20</option><option value="21">21</option><option value="22">22</option><option value="23">23</option><option value="24">24</option><option value="25">25</option><option value="26">26</option><option value="27">27</option><option value="28">28</option><option value="29">29</option><option value="30">30</option></select>

then you can see all of the numbers.

In Firefox without any changes, the website loads correct in the Web Archive.

There is definitely a difference in between rendering engines, in the way tight design is handling the number. BUT This is happening everywhere.

testcase

Here a simplified testcase exhibiting the issue on all browsers. 
This is an issue of a site which was not tested in all browsers when conceived, but it's long gone.
