See upcoming testcase.
You can see the bug at the url when hovering over the bottom image links.
A popup should come up. Hover over the image "Dane Electric". All the text is
one one line, but it should wrap over several lines.

This seems to be a regression.
I don't see the bug, using:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8a6) Gecko/20041126
Firefox/0.9.1+ 7:42am

I suspect the fix for bug 201897 might have caused this.

Pressing "Button 1" is what seems to have regressed.
Pressing "Button 2" is what never seemed to have worked (but should, imho -
ignore this if this has got nothing to do with the bug).

The last patch from bug 201897 seems to have fixed this bug.
With a 2004-12-05 trunk build I can see the bug, but not anymore with a
2004-12-06 trunk build.
Pressing "Button 2" still doesn't work however, but that never worked and is
probably a different problem.

Looks like a pure table bug - filed bug 275178.

Other than that, the testcase and site works fine now after we changed the fix
for bug 201897 to a less aggressive one.

-> FIXED
