Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.0) Installed from: Unlisted Binary Package OS: Linux Hello, I noticed that text on KDE myths section of kde.org was akward, and grammatically incorrect to read. After a sinlge word, there was a line break. On a whim, i opened the same site in firefox, where the missing text was shown correctly. The site is : http://kdemyths.urbanlizard.com/myth/59 .. The bug is worked about by decreasing font size to a *very* small value, when all text is shown. Else, text is seen like this : "While the LGPL makes no such restrictions. " This happens to my friend too. It is on Arch Linux 0.7.1 sync-ed to -current tree. Kde 3.5.0 Please tell me if i can help more, i will be glad to. Regards, Rohan.
I am sorry i should have reported the component as khtml, not suyre how i can change it now.
I can see the problem if I increase my font sizes. At 9pt, they show fine.
Well, I noticed that the page renders correctly in kubuntu, using 3.5 packages available on kubuntu.org. Maybe they already have a patch/fix for this problem ?
Works fine with current konqi.
No, i still need to zoom minus one on arch .. which has xorg7 and kde 3.5.1 now. So does another friend using the same distro. Going from size 13 to minus one zoom level fixes it.
This problem still exists in kde 3.5.1. I have not tried kde 3.5.2, since it is still in arch -testing not -extra. I will try it soon, and report back.
This bug remails unresolved in kde 3.5.2. Also, now, reducing font to very small size doesnt help either.
Ok, I can confirm that this does not work on debian, arch, and frugalware. On ubuntu, it worked since kde 3.4.2. Can someone please integrate the patch ? I will do little hunting and speaking, and post a link to the patch here.

I've already corrected something like this before...
reducing font size in kde 3.5.2 still helps. Actually I had to increase font size to get the erroneous behaviour, but I guess it all depends on what your usual fontsize is.
Ah, yes, the kde 3.5.2 was a mistake on my part. Charles, can you please correct it yet once more ? :) Ironic the fact that a kde site cant display proper in konqi ;) But I am sure there are more such sites ?
Bug confirmed, the rendering is still incorrect on konqueror in kde 3.5.3 :( Some love, please ?
I get the same behavior in 3.5.4 built from gentoo packages. I first noticed the bug on http://kdemyths.urbanlizard.com/myth/42 and it seems to present differently for different font size. In fact, I do not think that the text disappears, it is just put to the wrong position, well right of the box.
Created attachment 17651 [details] minimal page to reproduce the problem I ripped out everything from the webpage that did is not needed to reproduce on my machine. What is left should be the minimum to reproduce the bug. Note that by tuning the p:first-letter { margin-left: 1em; } parameter to a higher value, the effect occurs on more than one paragraph, so if this does not reproduce the bug try adjusting the font size or modifying this parameter.
