I've included a screenshot to illustrate the problem. Because the script name makes the dialog extremely long, the continue/stop buttons (which, if I understand correctly, are trying to be in a container that's centered relative to the whole width) are off screen and unable to be clicked.

The attached screenshot shows the problem. A look at the workspace switcher panel applet at the lower- right corner of the screen reveals that, due to this failure to wrap text, the "Warning: Unresponsive script" dialog box was three times as wide as the desktop itself. It was possible to drag the dialog box to the left in order to see the rest of the URL and click the buttons, but this is a nuisance and that workaround (and others) would likely not be apparent to novices. Furthermore, that Firefox will wrap a URL at all in this dialog box (i.e. at slashes where appropriate, and possibly under other conditions) suggests that the intent is to ensure that it remains readable, which at minimum I think indicates that the dialog box should not contain lines rendered longer than the width of the screen's viewable area. I do not know JavaScript, so I cannot easily reproduce this problem and determine precisely under what conditions it occurs or whether or not it is specific to Ubuntu. I doubt it only happens in Ubuntu, but since I cannot be sure of that, I have not marked it as affecting the upstream project Firefox, nor have I reported this upstream.
