            Bug ID: 147877
           Summary: Text with text-overflow:ellipsis and text-align: right
                    truncates the ellipsis character
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 525.x (Safari 3.2)
          Hardware: Macintosh Intel
                OS: Mac OS X 10.8
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: CSS
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: jjohns98684 at gmail.com

When using text-overflow:ellipsis in an element where the text is right-aligned, the ellipsis character is never shown.  If the text-align property is removed or disabled, the ellipsis occurs.  This occurs on OSX Safari 7/8 only.  Windows version is not affected, and neither are Chrome/FF/IE 10/11

I created a jsfiddle at http://jsfiddle.net/krd3yxbh/12/ to demonstrate the issue, and the html/css is replicated below:

<div class = 'outer-container' id = 'cell-1'>
    <div class = 'cell-container'>
        <div class = 'account-cell'>
            <span class = 'account-currency'> $</span>
            (1234567.89) <!-- text is truncated at the 6 with no ellipsis character visible.  Disable text-align in CSS and ellipsis will show. -->         
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

<div class = 'outer-container' id = 'cell-2'>
    <div class = 'cell-container'>
        <div class = 'account-cell'>
            <span class = 'account-currency'> $</span>
            (1234567.89)  <!-- ellipsis shows when text-align is removed -->
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

#cell-1
{
    top: 40px;
    text-align: right;
}

#cell-2
{
    top: 55px    
}

.outer-container
{
    left: 100px;
    position: absolute;
    overflow: hidden;
    width: 67px;
    height: 14px;
    background-color: #FFFFFF;
    border: 1px solid black;
    font-size: 11px;
}

.cell-container
{
    padding: 0px 3px 1px;
    width: 61px;
    display: table-cell;
    height: 14px;
    vertical-align: middle;
    font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif;
}

.account-cell
{
    color: #FF0000;
    position: relative;
    width: 52px;
    white-space: nowrap;
    overflow:hidden;
    text-overflow:ellipsis;
    padding-left: 9px;
    float: right;
}

.account-currency
{
    position:absolute;
    left: 0px;
}
