290501 - the browser does not display the "content" property of the tags properly

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Core :: CSS Parsing and Computation, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; ru-RU; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041108 Firefox/1.0

In the page www.gigabyte.iatp.org.ua/articles.html the blue-red line (near the
year number) sould be UNDER the year and NOT on the Right!!!.(In Opera browser
the site looks exacly as planned)
I think that is because browser does not properly recognize and translate the
"\A" symbol in the "content" property of the "table.list td.year:after" style
(see articles.html source code).

Reproducible: Always




P.S. Pleace excuse my BAAAAD English. :)

Can you attach a screenshot to show what the issue is here?

Attachment: This is how Firebird renders my page (no newline).

Comment 3

Attachment: This is how it must be rendered according to CSS 2.1 Specification W3C Candidate Recommendation 25 February 2004 (with newline)

td content is inline, thus the generated content on it is inline. if you want
the generated content to not be inline, specify e.g. display: block. line breaks
inserted in the content property are still subject to the 'white-space'
property. if you want line breaks to be rendered, specify e.g. white-space: pre.

see http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/generate.html#before-after-content

If you think this reolution is in error, please attach a minimal testcase (the
least possible html+css exhibiting the bug) to the bug report and re-open.

OK.The prblem is solved. But still why does Opera display it with newline 
without "display:block" and Firebird does not?

Because Opera is buggy?
