           Summary: WebKit shows horizontal scrollbar when other browsers do
                    not in div
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
        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: myrd at projectmagma.net


Take a look at the attached text case.

Firefox, Opera and IE do not show a horizontal scroll bar in the div, but
Webkit (latest nightly and Safari 3.1) does.

The issue is that the URL:

http://hl.udogs.net/files/Uploads/%20User%20Uploads/Zaknafein%20Uploads/FLHscreenshotGameFilms/king.pdf

Does not wrap, and remains on one line, causing the need for the scroll bar.
Yet, all other text in the div wraps to the viewable width of the div.

This is inconsistent. If a horizontal scroll bar is displayed, then it does not
make sense for the other text to wrap to the viewable width (rather than the
scrollable width).

However, the correct behavior, it seems, is to wrap the URL along with the
other text. Firefox and Opera wrap it on the / character, while IE wraps it at
the % character (which seems worse than /).

Webkit should behave similarly to FF and Opera.
