Description Justin Garcia 2005-09-21 15:13:32 PDT 
Links that are inside a right floating div, to the right of position:relative div, don't know they're being 
hovered over.

This affects the links in the right sidebar on http://del.icio.us/

Strange.  I thought that vicki had fixed something very much like this recently.

I am able to reproduce this bug in sense that Safari 15.6 on macOS 12.5 is matching Firefox Nightly 104 behavior while differing from Chrome Canary 105.

On the reduction, when I hover on right float <div>, the hover gets activated on fourth link "links that are" in case of Safari and Firefox while it gets activated on third link "links" in case of Chrome.

I am not sure, what is expected behavior inline with web-spec but just wanted to update latest testing. Thanks!

Just tested again on WebKit ToT (260833@main) and WebKit is still activating link upon hover on 4th and now Chrome Canary 112 is also matching Safari and Firefox Nightly 112 is also on 4th.

Since all browsers now agree and Chrome changed behavior, I am going to mark this as "RESOLVED WONTFIX". Thanks!
