Details

I don't know if this is because style resolution is broken or because of some
monkeying around that layout is doing.  But I'm getting a table frame with a
display type of "2" and that is breaking my code.  I hit an assert when a table
row can't find it's parent table properly.
also happens on http://www5.localweb.com/fingerstyle/mozillaZine/

the description is slightly off.  I don't hit an assert, I crash dereferencing a
body as a table frame because the guarantee that a table frame will have dipslay
type = table is violated.

Summary: crash because table frame has a displayType of inline → ss: crash because table frame has a displayType of inline
This is a show stopper. It's crashing us on lots of major sites. Adding people
to cc: list.
it's not crashing for me (at the momemnt!) but it is demonstrating unstable
layout. Jiggling the window width slightly causes the various logos (abcnews,
espn and Mr Showbiz) to jump around oddly. ANd the text lower down that has
"Advertising Sales, News and P.R...." jumps around wildly!
