Put the "details" code into an HTML page 2. Display with Mozilla Actual Results: The borders around the characters in the table were close to the characters. Expected Results: The table cells should have been padded with 20px of spacing all round their contents.
Padding applies to "all elements except elements with table display types other than table, inline-table, and table-cell". COL and COLGROUP are not among those table types. Invalid. See http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/box.html#propdef-padding

Actually, I did have it right. COL is display type table-column; COLGROUP is table-column-group. It's a dup bug anyway. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 240772 ***
