The outline property affects block sizes when contained by an element set to overflow: auto
.
Test page Workaround is not included
Reported by: Marc Pacheco.
In Safari, <INPUT>
and anchor (<A>
) elements within a block that has opacity
applied to it will not receive the treatment (blue border, by default) indicating that the user has put focus on that element (e.g. by tabbing). A workaround is provided to use the :focus pseudoclass on <INPUT>
and anchor elements within the wrapping semi-opaque element to manually apply a style indicating the user has focused on the element.

A box with no specified width, overflow:auto
, and next to a right float has the width "limited" by the float. When adding to it a negative left margin, in Opera the width is not stretched correctly.

Adding a background-color
or background-image
to html:before
or html:after
does not work in Opera, if the pseudo-element is positioned or if it has display:block
.
The same CSS works flawlessly on body:before
and body:after
.

Let's say you've some content inside a div with a defined size, which is inside a table. The div is set to overflow: auto
, so any content that won't fit should scroll.
In Safari and Shiira, if the content inside the div is floated, the table height (not the div height) will expand to fit the height of the content inside the div.
Test page Workaround is not included
Reported by: Brandy.
In Firefox, when a button element and an input[type=text] element share a form, and the button element has a click handler, then that click handler function will get fired when the user focuses on the input[type=text] and presses return. The first time, the event target will be the input[type=text] element, but the second time it happens, it'l be the button element.
Workaround: use input[type=button] instead.

A break tag in your code when text is aligned right causes a space at the end of the line. This has the effect that the last line in a group appears too far right.

When changing a parent element's class via JavaScript/DOM, an initial position:absolute
declaration sticks. The problem is corrected by applying a position:relative
declaration to the parent element's children.
Test page Workaround is included
Reported by: Steve Stedman.
Negatively margined (or indented) elements get cropped if their parent elements have layout (hasLayout == true).
(ppknote: IE 7 crops the right margin of the first example, but not the left. IE Mac ignores the margin-right: -10px
in the first example.)

Reported by: Margaux.
