I have a page that uses Javascript to display an alert when I click on some text. New in Safari 9.0.1 (MacOS El Capitan), the alerts are being truncated by Safari. For example, this code on the page:
alert('Alomerovic, Arnela has an extension of 0.6 days.\nBryan, Lindsey has an extension of 0.3 days.\nBullock, Hannah R. has an extension of 0.25 days.\nCooke, Alexander C. has an extension of .75 days.\nDunlap, John H. has an extension of 1 day.\nEvans, Logan J. has an extension of 0.6 days.\nJEON, HAYCE has an extension of 1 day.\nMcAteer, Jordan P. has an extension of 2.7 days.\nMeredith, Luke T. has an extension of 1.5 days.\nMueller, Rebecca J. has an extension of 1 day.\nNguyen, Thuy N. has an extension of .8 days.\nPaschke, Kimberlyn E. has an extension of 1.0 day.\nTran, Angela has an extension of .5 days.\nWatkins, Benjamin C. has an extension of .5 days.\nWeiss, Blaine E. has an extension of 0.08 days.');
gives rise to this alert:
Alomerovic, Arnela has an extension of 0.6 days.
Bryan, Lindsey has an extension of 0.3 days.
Bullock, Hannah R. has an extension of 0.25 days.
Cooke, Alexander C. has an extension of .75 days.

And this code on the page:
alert('Barnes, Kevin M. has an extension of 1 day.\nBryan, Lindsey has an extension of 0.5 days.\nDunlap, John H. has an extension of 2 days.\nHolland, Emma K. has an extension of 2 days.\nJEON, HAYCE has an extension of 2 days.\nLoya, Edward K. has an extension of 1 day.\nMcAteer, Jordan P. has an extension of 2 days.\nMeredith, Luke T. has an extension of 1 day.\nNguyen, Thuy N. has an extension of 0.7 days.\nNickell, Danielle has an extension of 2 days.\nPaschke, Kimberlyn E. has an extension of 1.5 days.\nThompson, Brandyn L. has an extension of 1 day.\nTran, Angela has an extension of 1.5 days.\nWatkins, Benjamin C. has an extension of .5 days.\nWeiss, Blaine E. has an extension of 0.28 days.\nYu, Samuel S. has an extension of 1.65 days.');

There is no scroll bar in the alert window. I'm attaching a screen shot of one of the alerts.
Am I missing a setting somewhere, or is this a bug? I don't observe this behavior in Chrome or Firefox, nor did I observe this behavior in previous versions of Safari.
