429411 - table columns mis-aligned or shifted under wrong header (extra column inserted?)

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Jon Neff]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9b5) Gecko/2008032620 Firefox/3.0b5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9b5) Gecko/2008032620 Firefox/3.0b5

When I display a table from the N-central application it creates a series of columns with headers on top. The error is that the data in the columns gets shifted to the right of the header value. For example, the data under in a column is for HTTP status but the header at the top is for MBSDA 2.0. Also the data for second following column is Memory status but the header above it is Paper Supply Level. It's as if the columns got shifted one column to the right but the headers remained the same. It's possible an extra column of blank data was inserted in a column to the left of the shifted ones. (Columns and headings on the far left are consistent. It's not apparent where the error occured.)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run the application.

Actual Results:  
The table was displayed with the error every time I loaded it in Firefox3b5. The page displayed correctly every time I loaded it in Firefox2.00.13.

Expected Results:  
The table should have loaded with the correct columns under the corresponding headers.

Note that this behavior cannot be reproduced in Firefox2.00.13. That version works correctly.

The error behavior is consistent with every page load in Firefox3b5. I haven't checked the behavior with the default theme. I will check it after submitting and if the error persists, will upload a screen capture and source for the frame.

Using 4.0 Beta 4 both normal and in safe mode: nothing has changed. The issue remains as originally reported.
