Pop up size is wider than the browser. Cannot see the OK button. How can I fix this?

When an alert pop up box is displayed it's width is wider than the browser, hiding the OK button. The only way to close the window is to press the esc key.

Update to Firefox 9.0.1 to see if it still happens (should be fixed there; Bug 686469).

You can find the latest Firefox release here:

Hi cor-el,

Thank you. I appreciate your time.

For the person who comes across this same issue:

I also added +'\n' to my javascript for the user who has not upgraded firefox to make sure that the user experience is still a good one.
