           Summary: float:left in span breaks http://www.inquirer.net
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://www.inquirer.net
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2

Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
Safari 3:
    Firefox 3: ok
         IE 7: ok

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. just go to the website http://www.inquirer.net
2. on the "breaking news" tab where it shows the time and news title, the 
"bullet" character is overlapping the time stamp.

What is the expected result?
the bullet character should be located just before the time stamp.

What happens instead?
the bullet character is on top of the time stamp.

The float:left property of the <span> tag that has the time causes the issue.
Note that IE behaves as Safari and Chrome if the background-color of the <span>
is not specified. The background-color gets displayed on top of the bullet so
you cannot see the bullet in IE
