277057 - css table display rendering oddity

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 18217

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Rob Rohan]

This may or may not be correct behavior based on w3c stuff, but if I have
several tables in a div with a width specified on the div and the display on the
table set to inline (or inline-table) the rendering is different from IE. I am
not sure which is correct, but the desired result is the IE rendering (at least
for my needs :-D). 

The css used in the screen shot above is

/* the container div */
.ArchetypeAnswersContainerR1 { border: 5px dashed navy; width: 500px; }

/* the inner tables - display: inline and display: inline-table do the same thing*/
.ArchetypeAnswerContainerR1 { 
	border: 2px solid yellow; background-color: green; width: 160px; display: inline; 
}

Cheers,
You guys are doing great work :)

Mozilla does not support inline-table and, IIRC, IE supports inline wrong when
applied to table markup.
