From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16 i686; en-US; m18) Gecko/20000801 BuildID: 2000080108 The form on the URL is not displayed correctly. This might also be related to tables and/or layout. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to http://promotions.yahoo.com/promotions/netiquette/ Actual Results: The form is not displayed properly- the radio buttons are missing, and so is the "true" word before every false. Also, the word "false" is displayed sometimes over other text. Expected Results: True/False radio buttons appear to the right of each question.
The code on this page barely qualifies as HTML. CDATA attribute values are unquoted. The tables are specified in absolute pixel sizes. No DOCTYPE. Etc, etc. Not confirming because of the bad code issues, but adding top100 keyword and moving to layout.

I agree that the code is bad, but it still displays correctly on both netscape 4 and IE 5. Adding 4xp keyword.

Attached file reduced testcase
Looks like another align-right (floater) bug. If I remove the align=right from the inner table it tart looking better.

Chris, this is probably a dup of another bug but I couldn't find it... Yet Another Floater Problem.

PDT: Nominating for nsbeta3+ Reason: Forms, top100 site, high visibility; Additional info: seems to be related to dispersing form controls in a table.

Buster, this looks like a floater problem (I don't have your recent fixes). When the align=right is removed from the nested table in the attachment, the "true" radio shows up.

this is another instance of a page that relies on quirky behavior of inline elements in an overconstrained situation. marking WontFix, adding evangwanted. Will attach a reduced test case.

as noted in other bugs of this sort, NOBR is non-standard. Better solutions include using the NOWRAP attribute on the TD, or better yet the CSS property "white-space: nowrap"
