           Summary: Selection marks more than its span boundary because of
                    outer <div> width and inner <div> positioning
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 525.x (Safari 3.1)
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://english.usvishakh.net/blog/
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Layout and Rendering
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: help.improve.webkit at gmail.com

I Steps:
Go to 
http://english.usvishakh.net/blog/

II Issue:
Select the text of the blog article. Selection marks more than user intends to
do.

III Conclusion:
The outer <div> (which has a class=post-container) that contains the text has a
width of 100%. Since the navigation on left  (i.e. Fun, Jokes, etc) is
positioned inside of that <div>, the left navigation text also gets selected
when the contents of the post-container <div> is selected.  See the 1st case in
the attached reduction.

In the 2nd testcase(attached reduction), I reduced the width of post-container
<div> to 85% so the <div> that contains the left navigation is not enclosed in
it. This works in Safari

IV Other browsers:
IE7: ok
FF3: ok
Opera9.24: ok

V Nightly tested: 31446
