Description

[Andreas Fink]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20030306 Camino/0.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20030306 Camino/0.7

those two should render the same but for some reason dont

<TD  WIDTH="827" HEIGHT="1" BGCOLOR="#00FFFF"><IMG src="null.gif"></TD>
<TD  WIDTH="827" HEIGHT="1" BGCOLOR="#00FFFF"></TD>

null.gif is a transparent gif picture with 1x1 pixel size.

Note:

<TD  WIDTH="827" HEIGHT="1" BGCOLOR="#00FFFF">
</TD>

also renders different because of the whitespace. This is NOT the problem here.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
open test page
Actual Results:  
should show two blue areas with a single black line in them.
second however shows much larger

Expected Results:  
draw one pixel line

No.  But it just happens to render it correctly too.  This is the rendering
required by the CSS spec.
