100073 - Tables vertical spacing overlaps

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 96343

(Core :: Layout, defect)

Description

[Kevin Kress]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.4+) Gecko/20010917
BuildID:    2001091706

On fark.com the initial load of the page always has problems with the layout of
the tables (ther veritcal spacing is off, there are overlaps...).  See
attachment for problem.  Any subsequent reloads or changes that require the page
to be rendered fix the problem (common workaround for me is to reset the
character encoding)\

System:
Linux (Debian unstable)
Glibc: libc-2.2.4.so
Plugins: Java 1.3.1 (symlink)
         acrobat (symlink)
         realplayer (symlink)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.goto fark.com



Actual Results:  notice the vertical spacing on some stories makes them overlap.

Expected Results:  The table should layout with no overlapping cells.

See http://myslo.com/~kkress/fark.jpg to see the problem in a screen shot. 
(Please be patient, this is a DSL line).

NOTE my default character encoing is UTF-8.

Basically, the code looks like this in the table. Reloading the table wil cause
the content to overlap.

<form>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
</form>


If you open and close the form element in the TR, I don't see the problem after
multiple reloads of page.


<tr>
<form>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
</form>
</tr>
