Expected Results:  To be able to see all of bottom frame.

The problem is that the table in the bottom frame has a row with a bad height
attribute. It is coded as:
        <tr height="7">
          <td width="137" height="3"></td>
          <td width="125" height="3"></td>
          <td height="3"></td>
        </tr>

Which results in a 3 pixel high row in IE6 and a 7 pixel in Mozilla (and Opera6).

According to http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/tables.html#height-layout :
"The height of a 'table-row' element's box is calculated once
the user agent has all the cells in the row available: it is the maximum of the
row's specified 'height' and the minimum height (MIN) required by the cells."

Which means Mozilla is doing the right thing.

-> INVALID

Should this not be marked as Tech Evangelism?

Comment 4

[David G King]

Rather than resolve this as invalid, which it is, how about reassigning to
Evangelism?

Ian, we had a mid-air collision, I hope I didn't overwrite anything you changed.

I just sent a quick  eMail to [e-mail] with info about the
problem. I doubt if this is the right address to send to, but it's a start.

While the bad HTML hasn't been fixed, this web page is no longer a problem due
to a partial redesign. Marking Fixed.
