253525 - disable / re-enable display of TR / TD elements gives weird rendering

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Core :: Layout: Tables, defect)

The HTML code on the URL above has two "links" to toggle the display of TR's and
TD's. When toggling the display, the layout of the table is rendered terrible wrong:

- With toggling TD's, the TD is placed one column too far to the right
- With toggling TR's, the table is increased with on row and the layout of the
elements doesn't match the layout of the rest of the table.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. See the HTML code at the URL above



Expected Results:  
With toggling of TRs, I expected them to be rendered in the same layout as the
rows around them.

With the toggling of the TDs, I'm not sure what the result was going to be.

Results on other browsers:
- Opera does render it weird too.
- Konquerer crashed on it.
- I.E. works fine.

default display value of tr ad td is table-row and table-cell, respectively; not
inline. if you want it to work in msie too, use ''.
