279182 - Problem with table border rendering, Dose not obay html tags on color and sometimes size

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Nicholas Castelli]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 1.0.3705)
Build Identifier: 

When rendering a webpage with tables that have borders greater then 1 and with 
bordercolor tags the gecko rendering engine will still render the default 
color of table borders. I don't think I really need to include this like as an 
example, I know everyone that uses Firefox has seen this but here you go 
http://civilrebellion.com/firefox_error.html

I have seen this problem a lot and is one major reason I have not used 
Firefox. I have however been rather forced to make web pages that are bloated 
just to make sure they render correctly in Firefox and I know this is a 
problem with the gecko rendering engine it is something that should be 
corrected I am re porting this here so it can be fixed on a grander scale then 
I feel I can do but i am also willing and going see if I can correct this 
problem if someone can just point me to the hidden location that the source 
code is stored at. 


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.View a webpage using table with border greater then 0 and bordercolor tag.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Tables render with incorrect border colors.

Expected Results:  
Rendering of the webpage as the html intends.

To Add to this issue,

I have observed that the rendering is just taking place on two sides of the
table border. 


i observed this for a table with border size > 0 and bordercolor=black.

The right border and the bottom border are colored while the remaining sides
wasn't got rendered properly.

I am using firefox for all my Web developement.

"bordercolor" isnt recognised in many netscape applications, which is quite bad,
my site looks appawling in FireFox: www.bit.uni.cc

firefox just doesnt recognise the HTML for the bordercolor etc

Possibly related: with a CSS entry of:

table.Database {
    Border:             1px solid navy;
    Border-Collapse:    collapse;
}

With v1.0.6 & 1.0.7, renders correctly as a single line all around the table.

With 1.5 beta 2, a regression: usually renders the left border double-width.

None of the sites listed above still exist. If you can reproduce using Firefox 2.0.0.3 or later, please file a new bug and attach a testcase to it (instead of linking to a site).
