Details

Steps to reproduce: 1. Launch Mozilla. 2. Navigate to http://www.bath.ac.uk/%7Epy8ieh/cgi/compat-test.pl 3. Type in "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">", and press "Generate..." Actual result: Layout will be in quirks mode. Expected result: Layout should be in standard mode. Mode testing codes such as "eDTDMode_NoQuirks == mode" or "eDTDMode_NoQuirks != mode" are broken since new "strict" parse mode (not defined in nsIHTMLDocument.h yet) is treated as quirks. Note that this is not a dup of bug 36872 since this is a layout problem.
