48827 - small problem with table layout on TV listings on www.tvguide.com

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: Layout: Tables, defect, P3)

Description

[Wayne Bell]

In my TV listings on www.tvguide.com, I've noticed that the catagory seperaters 
(lines dividing hour and half hour blocks on the listings) are missing from the 
left side, and double thickness on the right side.  I'm assuming that the left 
seperater jumped to the far right, thus doubling the thickness of the right 
side, but this layout bug doesn't affect the middle dividers.

ex:

half hour show half hour show | half hour show || half hour show

I don't know if this bug has already been submitted, because it occurs within a 
java applet, I think... so, it's difficult to tell what's going on behind the 
scenes

a relatively minor bug, but one that should be looked into

Thanks!

over to html tables, and confirming on win98. Adding helpwanted keyword for a
testcase...

Looks ok to me on Win98, 2000111108.  Might have been fixed around September 1 
in bug 27529.

[e-mail], do you still see this problem on newer Mozilla builds?  If 
you do, please attach a copy of the page to this bug, because the page depends 
on the zip code you enter and the time you grab the page.  Otherwise please 
resolve this bug as worksforme.  Thanks :)

This problem is still present on fairly recent linux builds (2000110608). Also
see similar problem with viewing portfolios and quicken.com.

I've created an attachment of my listings. Maybe this needs to be moved to a
linux bug rather than Windows?

I see the problem on the attached page (for Nashville) on Win98, so all/all.

The behavior of this bug has changed between mozilla 0.8.1 and build 2001032915.
All separators are now visible, but some are misaligned and the right edge is 
ragged.  The problem seems to be with colspans; the space between two 
joined cells is shifted slightly with respect to that between the separate 
cells and the total width is off.  As with the original problem, this is quite 
sensitive to table width; see attacehed testcase.  Could this be the result of 
the fix to bug 45055?

Are people still seeing this? It seems OK to me on Linux with recent builds.

There is a small matter of some of the columns not being lined up they way they
are probably intended to be (off by a pixel or two) but the issue with missing
lines seems to be fixed here and the other place I saw it.

What I see is that in the attachment fom 03/30/01, the rows of the last two
tables don't have the same length.

I still see the problem with the latest build ID: 20001051420
If you view the attached test case on 03/30/01, the rows of the last two tables 
does not have the same length..

Adding the testcase keyword
