           Summary: RenderObject::absoluteBoundingBoxRect() should ignore
                    rects outside the bounds of the document
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 522+ (nightly)
          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: http://www.bankofamerica.com/
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: HasReduction
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Layout and Rendering
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: ddkilzer at webkit.org


* SUMMARY
The RenderObject::absoluteBoundingBoxRect() method should ignore rects outside
the bounds of the document (to the left or to the top) when creating its united
rect.  This will clean up some Web Inspector highlighting such as the "Sign In"
button/link on bankofamerica.com as well as the test case attached.

* STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Safari/WebKit.
2. Open URL or test case for this bug.
3. Right click on "Sign In" button/link (on either page), and select "Inspect
Element".
4. Note location of red highlight box.

* EXPECTED RESULTS
The red highlight box should be drawn around the "Sign In" text.

* ACTUAL RESULTS
The red highlight box is shifted to the left of the button/link.

* REGRESSION
Unknown--no way to easily test shipping Safari without the Web Inspector.
