Strangeness rendering large {{{ }}} blocks in Firefox

[JosephArmbruster@…]

Using the following python script, generate test.txt:

file = open('test.txt','w')
file.write('\n{{{\n')
for x in xrange(1000):
  file.write('aaaaaaaaaa\n'*10)
for x in xrange(1000):
  file.write('bbbbbbbbbb\n'*10)
for x in xrange(1000):
  file.write('cccccccccc\n'*10)
file.write('\n}}}\n')

Using trac-admin, import test.txt into the trac wiki. If you view the resulting wiki page using IE 6.0.2900, you should be able to view the complete text without issue.

Issue

View the resulting wiki page using Firefox 2.0.0.8 and you should observe that the text is cut off down the page.

Note

I set this issue to minor since it may not be considered a practical use case to render this much text within blocks… although, that would be a funny limitation :-)

Version

I installed and am using trac roughly as detailed here:

test.py that will generate the test.txt to be imported

Incredible, this is now fixed with Firefox 3.6 ;-)

(3.5.x tested before upgrading still had the issue)
