I think we already do that for new posts so nothing to do there. I also
removed the <pre> tag from the post. Please if you find more, tell us
which exact note it is on a page, as that saves us time finding it
again.

The change will propagate to the mirrors over the next day.

regards,
Derick

Description:
------------
The page is very far scrolled horizontally for at least the past few
months. Looking over the source HTML briefly, I do not see why.
Tested the same problem in Opera 8.0/X11, Links 2.1Pre16/console and
Dillo 0.8.4/X11. I thought it might be a CSS problem at first, except
Dillo and Links don't support CSS.

Okay, I just figured it out. One user added a <pre> tag at the
starting of their long textual post. It might be useful to disallow
this tag by people making comments to prevent this on other pages.

Could you remove this particular commenters <pre> tag on this page ? I
have ended up on that page several times lately and it would be totally
unusable if not for Opera's "Fit to screen width" feature.

One other note:

When people submit comments to php.net using Win32 browsers, it inserts
a Carriage Return (ASCII 13) at the end of every line, and php.net does
not bother to remove these when posting the comments. It is not a big
deal, but it does make the HTML source look fairly ugly in Vim, and is
adding a lot of unecessary characters to the web site.

Reproduce code:
---------------
N/A

Expected result:
----------------
N/A

Actual result:
--------------
N/A
