Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050728 Firefox/1.0.6
When i use this XHTML :
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<td style="background-color:#00FF00;">
something
</td>
<td style="background-color:#0000FF;">
<table/>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
This text should be after the table !
</body>
</html>
The text saying that it should be after the table is in the table : the <table/>
element seems to "eat" every other closing elements located after it.
I know that my documents should not have such empty table tags. But I think
Firefox (gecko) should simply ignore these empty tags.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. just show the html present in "Details" in Firefox
2.
3.
Actual Results:
Bad layout : the text after the table is in the table
Expected Results:
the text afer the table must be displayed after the table

In fact, it does not work if the extension of the file is .html but it works if
its .xml
In that case, please read the XHTML spec. Appendix C.3:
"Given an empty instance of an element whose content model is not EMPTY (for
example, an empty title or paragraph) do not use the minimized form (e.g. use
<p> </p> and not <p />)."
This is a dupe of bug 185693 or any other of the 'XML syntax in a HTML document'
type of bugs.
