Details

Using 1.01 RC 1 or 2, on Windows XP, I get a table that decides it should be
ludicrously tall when it encounters:

Certain escaped characters (such as é),
inside a link,
inside a <td align=center> or <td><p align=center>.
A newline within the <A> seems to be involved as well.

WFM using Mozilla 1.1, on Win 2000 - the tables are only big enough for what's
in them.

Reporter: Can you reproduce this on the latest build and/or 1.1?
1.1 fixes this.
