I'm using a completely different frontend with different scaling code, and could still see a couple of the artifacts - so there is something odd going on there. Chris

I agree. I think I had noticed it before but probably dismissed as not particularly significant. However, it would be nice to have it sorted out, please. Cheers

The 'width' setting might have been a web design error but in my view, which may or may not be entirely correct, there is none the less a scaling issue within NetSurf. (And the rounded end caps called for in the css are ignored in NetSurf, which may just mean they are not implemented.) > Apologies for the noise. -- David Pitt MessengerPro 6 on an ARMini running RISC OS 5

I suggest that might be the problem reported in bug 323 by David Pitt. I suspect that it has not being addressed because it is not very clear from the report title at first glance that it is a CSS implementation problem. I also suspect that it is the same problem I see every time I look at Google where the two lines to the right of the entry field are vertically truncated. John

David Pitt has found the reason for the poor display of text in the gif. It was down to the css style it was displayed in and the consequent rescaling. By removing a line 'width: 40%;' which had crept in by copying inappropriately, good behaviour has been restored. Apologies for the noise. -- Gavin Wraith (ga...@wra1th.plus.com) Home page: http://www.wra1th.plus.com/

I'm seeing this on r12793 and on some other sites too. Sometimes it just looks as though the tops of the letters on a line have been chopped off but I guess it's the same problem. Please raise a bug report. There are similar problems on the W3C validator home page (http://validator.w3.org/) where ">More Options" obscures part of a text input field in two places. -- Richard Porterhttp://www.minijem.plus.com/ mailto:r...@minijem.plus.com I don't want a "user experience" - I just want stuff that works.

As this is still happening does it need formal reporting as a bug, now with r12793? Cheers.
