testcase for standard mode
316 bytes, text/html
Details 
In milestone 7, www.q3arena.com was displayed correctly. It does not have the correct layout now. I suspect that this has to do with frames and/or image maps.
Also, the text is displayed as the wrong color after a few paragraphs meaning that the site has become unreadable(black on black). Just tryin' to help.

Here's a reduced test case:

<html>
<head>
<base href="http://www.q3arena.com/">
</head>
<body bgcolor="black">
<span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 8pt; color: white;
text-decoration: none">
SOCKS proxy:
<blockquote>text in blockquote</blockquote>
</span>
</body>
</html>
Assignee: troy → rickg
Component: Layout → Parser
What's happening is that the BLOCKQUOTE is getting moved outside of the SPAN tag
and so there's no associated style info that says that the text should be white
and of a particular font

Here's a dump of the content model:

html refcount=3<
  head refcount=2<
    base href=http://www.q3arena.com/ refcount=3<>
  >
  body bgcolor=black refcount=3<
    Text refcount=3<\n\n\n\n\n\n>
    span style=font-family: Verdana; font-size: 8pt; color: white; text-decorati
on: none;  refcount=3<
      Text refcount=3<\nSOCKS proxy:\n>
    >
    blockquote refcount=3<
      Text refcount=3<text in blockquote>
    >
    Text refcount=3<\n\n\n\n\n\n>

Ok -- I've fixed this by making spans act like blocks. The W3C says spans are
inline -- but hey, you can't argue with navigator. (I'll update the DTD to do
the right thing in non-quirks mode).

In standard mode, SPAN element SHOULD NOT contain the BLOCKQUOTE element.
But SPAN contains BLOCKQUOTE even if we are in standard mode.
reopen.

Clearing FIXED resolution due to Reopen.

Harish -- this bug needs to be handled by updating the elementtable using quirks
mode. I'll leave it to you.
