14099 - compatability bug with parsing nested lists

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 9536

(Core :: DOM: HTML Parser, defect, P3)

Description

[kipp]

The attached trivial test parses wrong in gecko because the parser kicks the
inner ul out of the outer ol. This results in incompatible layout because the
list doesn't end up indented enough.

Attachment: simple testcase; use dump content model to see the mess the parser made of it

So Kipp, what shall you have me do here? The HTML is invalid per spec. Do you
want me to allow this case?

Comment 3

[kipp]

What I would do is when you are using the CNavDTD (the quirky one) that you
allow UL(OL,MENU,DIR) to contain %flow instead of just LI's...
