Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout, defect)

Description

[Jack Bates [:nottheoilrig]]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.0.1) Gecko/20060111 Firefox/1.5.0.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.0.1) Gecko/20060111 Firefox/1.5.0.1

This HTML example doesn't render as it should -


     <!--
         Remove any of a) border-collapse: collapse; b) table-layout: fixed; or
         c) width: 100% & this page is rendered correctly as two columns, the
         left containing "foo" & the right containing a 7x4 table of "x"s

         As it stands, however, Firefox 1.5 renders a single column containing
         "foo", wide as the canvas, & a column of four "x"s somewhere on the
         far right of the canvas
     -->

Perhaps this combination of CSS statements makes Firefox think the right column is empty?

Reproducible: Always

worksforme on the trunk, so it's already fixed in some bug I can't find for Firefox 3, and isn't the sort of thing that'll be put on the branch for Firefox 2.

Phil is right. Besides, Fx2 is nearing its eond of life.

I don't know why this testcase was added, but it works as well, in Fx3.
