When I move mouse over link, all _other_ text in document moves.
I would like to see _only_ moving link, but not _other_ text.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

2003012805 trunk Linux: Nothing moves when i mouse over the links. WFM.

No, it moves when you move mouse over the table from one link to another.

If I'm not mistaken, this was happening because the borders are increasing the
height of the line, which they shouldn't be doing; borders, padding, and margins
do not affect the height of lines under CSS2.  I saw the same thing happen in
20021120.  However, it only appears to happen in older builds; tests with
2003010903/Mac amd 2003011213/Mac showed no changes in line height.  From where
I sit, this one looks to be INVALID.

probably bug 172896.

build.

Reopening to mark duplicate of the right bug, since I agree with your assessment.

This bug affects not only table.
I changed CSS from this one
A:HOVER {
  border : 1px solid Silver;
  margin : -1px;
}
to
A:HOVER { 
  margin : -1px;
}
at http://uosis.mif.vu.lt/~ralu0392/test.html

and now table height is OK, but text is moving from right to left and back.

Ramûnas: I don't know that Mozilla's behavior with the new testcase is wrong
(bug 144894 was specifically that padding should not affect the vertical height)...
if you really think it is a bug, you can file a new bug.
