161411 - White space between tags causes extra vertical space when inside a block with non-zero text-indent in standards mode

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Layout, defect, P3)

Description

[Nicholas Allen]

Win2k 20020806 trunk

When in standards mode, white space between tags that are in a block that has a 
non-zero text-indent defined causes a blank vertical line in the rendering.  
When there is no text-indent, the vertical positioning is as expected.  When in 
quirks mode, the vertical positioning is as expected.  IE6 has the expected 
vertical positioning in all cases.

Here's the essential part of the testcase (actual testcases coming soon):

<div class="section">
<h2>two lines - indent</h2>
<ul>
<li>
test</li></ul>
<h2>one line - indent</h2>
<ul><li>
test</li></ul>
</div>

Actual Results: Extra vertical space when <ul> and <li> are separated when 
indented in standards mode
Expected Results: No extra vertical space

(Note: this is not just limited to <ul> and <li> -- the <div> and <h2> have an 
extra blank line as well)

The "indent" and "no indent" parts of both testcases are rendered identically to
each other and identical across the two testcases.  Is this bug still a problem?

Checking with an 0428 trunk build on win2k, this has since been fixed.

Both test cases render identically with a single line of space around each
bulleted item.
