Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Look into details, have html code their for my next contract.  Click and unclick
the button to see the issue
Actual Results:  
row is disapears(this part is good).  Click unhide and what happens is that a
new now is made - the old row to apear is displayed in a row inside a new row in
the left cell.  Hide and unhide, now ther is original row, inside a row, inside
a new row.  Table grows insize.

Expected Results:  
A single row should disapear and reapear with out the table or row expanding.

That's because the default display of a table row is 'table-row', not inline.

Toggle between inline and '' to get a result that works cross-browser, since IE
will not understand 'table-row'.

Toggle between 'none' and '', that is.
