Re: Text concatenation fault with Chrome and the "clip" technique for hiding text

I added an example that should be read as "Delete odd numbers". It should be easy to hear the concatenation of the first two words.

I tried a few more things and found that the concatenation occurs with <div>, <span> and <h3> elements, and presumably all other heading elements. It also occurs if the words are not enclosed in any element at all if they are followed by a <br> element. The whole thing is so weird that I am not going to bother doing any more diagnosis.
