215629 - Page not displayed correctly when Sidebar is visible (Windows and Linux)

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Layout: Tables, defect)

Description

[Edward]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624

This web page does not display correctly in Mozilla 1.4, for BOTH Windows 98 and
Linux, when the Sidebar is diaplayed.  

The page displays similiar to a checkerboard pattern (the end of one line
appears at the beginning of the next line, then ends there).  However when the
Sidebar is closed either by clicking its X or pressing F9, the page then
displays correctly (in both Windows and Linux).  

View/Page Source indicates MS Front Page 4.0 was used to create the page, so I
am not sure if -that- is the reason for Mozilla 1.4 not displaying it properly
with the Sidebar visible.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.With Sidebar visible, go to http://www.cmedia.com.tw/
2.Web page displays incorrectly
3.Close Sidebar, page displays correctly



Expected Results:  
Page should have displayed correctly whether or not Sidebar is visible.  Not
known if their use of MS Front Page 4.0 to write the page, is causing Mozilla to
display the page as described.

Well, when I look at it in 2003080808 PC/WinXP, it's broken even with the
Sidebar off....

I see it to on Win 2003080504
There is a table that holds all the images.  Each row has four images that have
a combined width of  726px.  On my screen Mozilla makes the width of the table
666px (67%) in width. This is not enough to hold the images so it wraps the
images to the next line.
The sidebar is just decreasing the width of the page so the images now have to
wrap.  Frontpage is taking avantage of a bug in IE.

setting the cellspacing to 0 would also avoid the wrapping

Given how the caller uses this, this sounds right.
