18263 - <p align=center>keeps centering after paragraph ends

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 17648

(Core :: Layout, defect, P3)

Description

[Akkana Peck]

lxr centers some of its search instructions, using <P ALIGN=CENTER>

But in Mozilla, the centering is never turned off, even after we leave that
paragraph, so all of lxr's output comes out centered, which makes it much harder
to read.

This is apparently a quirks mode thing. In 4.6, everything after the <HR> was
left aligned, while mozilla continued centering text. Apparently in 4.x <HR>
causes a </P>. Adding a <P> tag just before the <HR> in the test case makes it
lay out as expected in mozilla. I added an extra <P> to lxr so it should look
normal now.

The same seems to apply to <FORM> as well. I added <P> to the document after
the form and before the horizontal rule, the links were left aligned
but the word "Menu" inside the text box was centered. Added a new test case.
Re-fixed lxr.
