29511 - Cell with fixed width resizes on reflow

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 39209

(Core :: Layout: Tables, defect, P3)

Description

[Matthew Schultz]

I'm using Win98 and Build ID 2000022208. If you mouseover the search button on 
this page, the table on the top will align left.

I can reproduce this on 2000022716 on Win98. The "Search" button should actually 
render itself to the right of the text entry box, as is done in IE5.x and 
NS4.7x, but in Mozilla it render underneath for some reason.

The initial layout of the page (other than the search button being 
underneath rather than beside) before the page shifts is the correct one as it 
looks exactly the same in IE and NS.

This could be a dup of bug 29429.

Comment 5

[Ryan Massie]

Is this bug a dup of bug 29429 ? If so, it should be marked as so, otherwise 
this is new. If it is a dup, bug 29429 should be reopened.

Changing to HTML Tables

Comment 9

I'm not seeing the problem when mousing over the button, probably because it was 
fixed since reported. I'm changing the summary from "Search Form button causing 
table to align left at top of page" to "Search button in wrong location".

I still see the problem of the page shifting/reshuffling itself when mousing 
over the Search button.

This is on 2000040815 on Windows 9x.

Confirmed this with Linux build 2000.04.11.09. I've made this into something of
a testcase.  We have a table (width=100%) with a cell on the left with no
specified width, and a fixed width cell on the right.  The left cell conatins a
table, and the cells of that table have percentage widths.  If you mouseover the
button, the fixed-width cell on the right will expand.
