A Bug In Firefox??
Posted on May 2005 at about 4:56 am by hwaI found this strange behavior with my Firefox web browser, when i type a long string without space into a textarea, the horizontal scrollbar will appear.
Well you can test this on your own at any textarea, of course you need a Firefox web browser, the best place would be my shoutbox there. At the message box, just keep pressing a single character until it fill the message box, then the scrollbar will appear, but remember dun press “Shout!” after testing it!!
But if you do the same thing with Internet Explorer the string will continue to the next row.
At first i thought it was my Firefox setting went wrong, so i keep looking for where to find the setting, including typing “About:config” at the address bar there, but still can’t find the setting. so i went search in Google and i found this link here.

So is it a bug? Maybe but people say the Mozilla people are working on it now, so i hope they can solve this problem in the next release.
