** Observed with 2002-04-23 Win32 1.00 Branch build **
This problem was orginally reported for the Japanese page cited in
the URL field above. I will attach a reduced test case below but the
essence of the problem is that: the <b> style is applied to elements beyond
the specified range when <P> is within another block element.
Here's a reduced test case:
========================================
<HTML>
<BODY>
<OL>
<B>
<LI>This is list #1
<P>
</B>
This is a comment line #1<BR>
</OL>
This is a comment line #2
</BODY>
</HTML>
========================================
<B> is to be applied only to the 1st list item and the comment line #1 is
supposed to be in non-bold. I will upload this test case attachment but
all the lines get bod style in this test case.
Additional notes:
1. If you delete <P>, it will display as intended - i.e. 2 comments are
in lain style.
2. If you add the closing </LI>, this will not be a problem.
3. Among IE5.5, NN4.x and Mozilla/NS6, only Mozilla/NS6 behaves this way.
<B> is supposed to apply to only inline elements but even if that were
the case, the results here seems wrong. Most people don't add the closing
</LI> and this problem for that reason is serious.

I believe this is a dup of Bug 139457? Seems like Mozilla fails when HTML tags
is not nested correctly...
Reporter, you could try running your attached HTML test case through a HTML
validator. I have A Real Validator v 1.11 wich I would would recomend
(http://download.com.com/3120-20-0.html?qt=A+real+validator&tg=dl-2001)
Thanks for using Mozilla!

<OL>
<B>
<LI>This is list #1
<P>
</B>
This is a comment line #1<BR>
</OL>
The problem here is that the <li> does not end till the next <li> is encountered
or till </ol> is encountered. So what you have here, in effect is:
<ol><b><li>Text</b>Text</li></ol>
Now <b> is not allowed as a child of <ol> and the <b> and <li> tags are
misnested.... There is no "correct" rendering here....

as possible.

I'm marking this a DUPE of bug 181697, since this seems to be fixed on current
trunk builds and that seems like the right sort of code change to fix this.
