It is displaying it, just in a place your eye doesn't happen to see it due to a load of wonky CSS rules.
You could probably modify your browser to defeat this trick, but doing so you would run the risk of breaking existing sites and making CSS even more complicated than it already is.
And malicious code writers would simply switch up their code to a new trick.
- snowwrestler 14y agoIt is rendering it, but not displaying it. The browser knows how wide the view port is, and knows that some of the text sits outside the viewport, so it does not display it. The same check could easily be performed upon OS copy event; it just isn't because the browser authors did not think they needed to.
