from a comment by "mike" at http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/roc/archives/2006/02/anatomy_of_bloat.html -- Interesting, I see the table in this post collide with the text on initial display (when the screen width is wide enough to contain 2 columns, not more), resizing a browser window immediately fixes it... another incremental reflow issue? Steps to reproduce :-/ - resize the window with this blog post so it shows 3 columns - start to reduce the window size, stop when the content snaps into 2 columns - press reload - observe the table overflowing the text - resize the window, the text snaps back into its place from under the table -- i can repro this with Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.1.1) Gecko/20061204 Firefox/2.0.0.1 ID:2006120417. resizing the window doesn't automagically fix it for me. i can actually repro it with two or three columns while resizing, not just reloading.

Probably invalid, since the minimal width of that table exceeds the specified '-moz-column-width' value. BTW, I read (2nd paragraph) "Content that extend outside the column box ... is clipped. ... as if the column box had 'overflow:hidden'" at http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-multicol/#the-multi-column This does not seem to match what we are doing...
That spec language is new. The behaviour in this bug is "by design" until we implement the new spec. I'm not sure whether this bug is INVALID or we should leave it open to track that update...
Summary: table writes over text (needs better summary) → wide table in -moz-column leads to overlap
I filed bug 372053 to track the spec issue. -> INVALID
