Attachment: testcase showing problem

<div style="... border-left:2px...; border-right:2px...
width:444;padding:10px;">

The width the Webmonster wants is 444px, but per CSS spec, container
width = border + padding + width, which makes it 468px.

per bug 64823, this should be INVALID (though I don't understand why.
the page is in Quirk Mode, so shouldn't Mozilla relax a little bit on
CSS rule?)
