when browser window's width becomes insufficient to hold all three tables, browser moves second table below first, instead of showing horizontal scrollbar

deo@logos-m.ru - are you still seeing this problem on recent builds of Mozilla? Gerv
yes, build 2000041108 still have this problem. you can simply open given url and try to change browser window width. when width becomes less then sum of both tables, second table jumps below the first one. in other browsers it stays right to first table, and horizontal scrollbar appears in browser window
I think we're doing the right thing. If 2 floaters don't fit in their contain (in this case, the viewport), then the second is placed below the first. Perhaps we need a quirks-mode setting for backwards compatibility, but I hesitate to do that unless this is a widespread idiom. We've already rejected making this backwards compatible in the case where the floaters are in a containing block such as a <DIV> or <TABLE>. The question is, is the viewport a special case?

This is a quirk of 4.x that I'd rather not emulate. But IE5 does it too...

Using 9/14 build, if window is reduced, horizontal scrollbar is generated. Tables do not move. Verifying this dup fixed.
