302228 - DOCTYPE XHTML causes additional vertical spacing inserted in table rows

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 22274

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Ed DeFinis]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

The URL http://www.hinkleyauto.com/pdfs/pdf_slices.html contains DOCTYPES which
have been commented out.  When DOCTYPE XHTML is enabled, the mozilla browsers
(both Firefox and Netscape) insert additional spacing between each row of the
table being displayed.  DOCTYPE  HTML 4.01 appears to be OK.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Visit these three sites:

a)  http://www.hinkleyauto.com/pdfs/pdf_slices.html - No DOCTYPE - Works correctly
b)  http://www.hinkleyauto.com/pdfs/pdf_slices_HTML_41.html - DOCTYPE HTML 4.01
- Works correctly
c)  http://www.hinkleyauto.com/pdfs/pdf_slices_XHTML_11.html - DOCTYPE XHTML 1.1
- Image is fragmented.  NOT GOOD!  
3.

Actual Results:  
The first two sites identified above work correctly.  The third one displays a
fragmented image due to the extra spacing inserted between the rows of the table
containing slices of the image.

Expected Results:  
Extra spaces should not be inserted between table rows unless requested via
valid HTML script.
