           Summary: Unused backup generic font of "monospace" changes actual
                    font size (3-24-2008 nightly build, r31238)
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 526+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: http://bandes-storch.net/bug.html
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Layout and Rendering
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: jtbandes at gmail.com


When text is given a backup font of "monospace", its rendered size is smaller
than it would be without the backup font.

This:
font-family: Courier, monospace;
Renders fonts smaller than this:
font-family: Courier;

They should render at the same size, since Courier is used. This computer has
the Courier font.

This only occurs with monospace, not any other CSS3 specified generic font. As
far as I can tell, this is independent of the chosen font family. In the Web
Inspector, the font family is displayed as the correct value. I have provided a
link to an example page if necessary.
