22122 - COLGROUP width=0* - wrong implementation

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: Layout: Tables, defect, P3)

Description

Overview Description:

	Setting the width of a column to 0* makes the column excessively wide,
overriding even explicit table widths.

Steps to Reproduce:

	I'm going to attach a test case.

Actual results:

	Table 1:	3rd col - minimum width
	(correct)	2nd col - 1/2 remaining width
			1st col - 1/2 remaining width

	Table 2.1:	3rd col - width far exceeding screen width
			2nd col - minimum width
			1st col - width equal to 2nd col (correct)

	Table 2.2:	3rd col - width far exceeding screen
			2nd col - minimum width
			1st col - twice the width of 2nd col (correct)

	Table 2.3:	3rd col - width far exceeding screen
			2nd col - 100 pixels (correct)
			1st col - minimum width

Comments on actual test case results:

	Table 1 came out correctly.

	Table 2.1: First two columns allotted minimum width--
		last column seems to extend more than 30x table width

	Table 2.2: Relative widths are still implemented,
		even though 1* has been minimized.

	Table 2.3: Pixel width correctly implemented,
		even when combined with 0*

Expected Width allotment:

	Table 1:	As is

	Table 2.1: 	3rd col - minimum width
			2nd col - 1/2 of remaining space
			1st col - 1/2 of remaining space

	Table 2.2: 	3rd col - minimum width
			2nd col - 1/3 of remaining space
			1st col - 2/3 of remaining space

	Table 2.3: 	3rd col - minimum width
			2nd col - 100 pixels
			1st col - remaining space
