As it can be seen on the page of the given URL, the text on a table is not
drawn correctly. There is something wrong with the width.
I didn't examine the code throughly. So, I have no idea if the BBS system
used non-standard code. However, because there are lots of sites which uses the
BBS code in Korea, it should be fixed.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Please visit the web page.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Column width is wrong.

Expected Results:  
The table should be drawn as it should be.

The markup looks sort of like:

<table style="table-layout: fixed" width="99%">
<form>
<input type="hidden"><input type="hidden"><input type="hidden">
<tr>
  <td colspan=6"></td>
</tr>
<col width=50></col><!--<col width=80></col>--><col width=></col><col
width=50></col><col width=120></col><col width=50></col><col width=50></col>
<tr>
  <td></td> <td></td> <td></td> <td></td> <td></td> <td></td>
</tr>
... etc

The point is, with a fixed-layout table the first row determines the layout of
all the rest.  And the first row here contains only a single cell, which gets
some width (not sure why or how) and then the rest of the rows are squeezed into
the same width.  Not sure whether all the form/col bogosity is related to this;
we need a minimal testcase here.

Attachment: Reduced testcase

INPUT in TABLE is essential for reproducing this.

[Bernd]

nice testcase

Comment 4

[Erik Fabert]

The summary seems misleading: in the testcase you could replace the <input> with 
basically anything that must not be a child of <table> and the result would be 
the same (I tried it with <b></b>).

the tree tables  render now identical, marking as wfm. Please reopen if you think there is still a bug
