Each red bar graph is supposed to have a drop shadow under its whole width,
formed by css border features.  Try it in Safari or IE to see how it's supposed
to look.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to the URL
2. Look
3.

Actual Results:  
borders don't show

Expected Results:  
borders should show, i.e. below the bar graph and at its right.

tried it with 'screen' specified and with no output type specified.

Hmm, what happens if you remove the border="0" in the main table? Looks related
to bug 167496.

Doesn't help

Attachment: A testcase

Depending on the font size, the text in the cells may or may not be visable,
and this effects if the border is displayed.

This may be related to bug 198113 however it appears to be different.
The cells are not empty cells as defined by
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/tables.html#empty-cells

Attachment: A testcase demonstrating the problem in with a strict HTML doctype

All three TDs differ only in font-size. The first one has a font-size of 1px,
the second has a font-size of 0.1em, and the third has a font-size of 1em. All
three have a 1px solid green border.
The first table has empty-cells: hide; and the second has empty-cells: show;
Depending on the default font size, this effect may not be seen, and the font
size may need to be adjusted.

How is it supposed to look?  All 6 cells show green borders? (That's what Safari does.)  So you're 
implying that the bug is reltated to the font size of the text inside?

I see borders around all the cells.  What do you see?  Are entire cells missing
borders, or just some sides?

Safari handles this correctly, treating both rows of the table the same, having
3 cells with text in them.
When the font-size becomes sufficiently small, the text disappears, and when it
becomes even smaller, it. I suspect when the computed font-size is less then
1px, this problem will be exhibited.
