I had issues with the vertical scroll bar
not appearing when it needed to when I used "overflow: hidden",
which is why I went with "overflow-x: hidden" instead.
Thanks,
Jon

Support did give us a fix to apply directly to the ARSystem.css file on each mid-tier:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
/* Workaround for firefox issue where a horizontal scrollbar appears inside a text field */
textarea.sr {
padding-bottom:3px;
}
The simplest way to fix this would just be to add the "overflow:hidden" to this block in the css file.
Modify the /resources/moz/stylesheets/ARSystem.css as follows:
/* Workaround for firefox issue where a horizontal scrollbar appears inside a text field */
textarea.sr {
padding-bottom:3px;
overflow:hidden;
}
Please flush the browser and tomcat cache after making the changes and perform the test.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
In fact, the browsers read the ARSystem.css file when logging in to a new session and there was no need to flush the mid-tier cache.

** Hi Ali,
Apologies for the late response, I was on vacation.
You have to install the Stylish plugin for Firefox, and add that as a script (essentially Stylish allows you to add to the CSS for a site or page). Don't forget to change the domain to match your server/balancer's name.
If you're looking for a system-wide fix, you'd have to edit the Remedy CSS file(s) directly on the mid-tier.
Thanks,
Jon

Jon
Are you able to view the text beyond the visible text area (when you type in
characters more than the visible text area) ?
Also, in what file (or individual forms) did you make this change?
Thanks
Ali
