270704 - TABLE display:inline and text-alignment issues.

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Layout: Tables, defect)

Description

[/\/\arcio Galli]

This is another case from Yahoo! development page. I will attach two testcases. 

CASE A: CORRECT 
=======

Text
+
Table display:inline. 
  \
   \__inner TD with text-align:center
       \
        \___ inner text has to show centered. 
+
Text 


CASE B: Bug case. The inner text get aligned to the left. Note here there simple
a table around everything. 
=======

Table
 \
 Text
 +
 Table display:inline. 
   \
    \__inner TD with text-align:center
        \
         \___ inner text has to show centered. 
 +
 Text 


CASE C: Workaround. If you add a block-level before the end of the main table,
it fixes the rendering. 
=======
Table
 \
 Text
 +
 Table display:inline. 
   \
    \__inner TD with text-align:center
        \
         \___ inner text has to show centered. 
 +
 Text 
 +
 DIV

TABLE { display:inline }
shouldn't have any particularly noticeable affects, actually.  It's a bug in
Mozilla that it does (bug 135994).

That said, there does look like there's a real bug, although our layout of both
testcases is highly incorrect (as is WinIE's).

The centering issue seems to be fixed on the reflow branch.
