Description:
screenshot of clicking on a link in IE8 with justify paragraphs enabled

With Internet Explorer 8, when you choose the "justify paragraphs" option under Preferences->Appearance, the outline that appears when you click on a link is out of position to the left. It seems that it is outlining where the link would have been had full justification not been enabled. See screenshot for a better idea of what I am describing. I only get this behavior in IE8, not in Firefox or Chrome.

Tested in the preference in IE9 and IE9 in compatibility mode, and could not reproduce. Closing as WORKSFORME.

craig.wenger: Please feel free to reopen this report if if this still happens in a recent supported version (see http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Version_lifecycle ). Thanks!

Agreed, it seems to be fixed in IE9. Must have been just an IE8 problem.
