This one is curious. I picked this up at www.boston.com on the front page when I was checking some other bugs (other (different) bugs on www.boston.com bug #1431, bug #1240, bug #1239, bug #4836(FIXED)). In the present state of this test case, the text "BRIAN MCGRORY" overlays the IMG (as it did when I saw it on the page www.boston.com April 9th) Tested with April 9 & 10, win95 opt builds. At first, I figured this would come down to one condition. However, there appear (to me) to be a number of dependencies among the block elements, the font markup and the floated table. You can (refer to numbers below): (1) delete this line and make everything work (2) delete this line and the IMG 'disappears' (3) delete this line and the IMG 'disappears', but in a different way (4) delete this line and make everything work (5) drop the align=left, and, (of course) make everything work (6) replace the IMG with text, and have the text do the overlay (7) lose the <FONT></FONT> tags from around the name, and make everything work (8) uncomment this closing </FONT> and make 'Mooney's grass ...' overlay the IMG too ------------------------------------------------------------------------ <html><body> <font face=arial,helvetica size=-1> <!-- (1) --> <p> <!-- (2) --> <br clear=all> <!-- (3) --> <p> <!-- (4) --> <table width=50 border=0 align=left> <!-- (5) --> <tr><td> <!-- (6) --> <img src="http://graphics.boston.com/globe/images/columns/mcgrory.gif" width=50 height=62> </td></tr> </table> <!-- (7) --> <font size=-2 color=maroon>BRIAN MCGRORY</font><br> Mooney's grass is always greener ...

I just tried this with the M4 release (win95 opt) and the test case lays out
fine. All of the variants also lay out fine except one (7). By accident, I
changed the line for (7) above to the one noted below and got the text
'Mooney ..' overrunning the image.
<!--
this is the same HTML as before with one change (7B) remove the
<FONT> from the previous case and 'Mooney's grass ...' overlays
the image.
-->
<html><body>
<font face=arial,helvetica size=-1>
<p>
<br clear=all>
<p>
<table width=50 border=0 align=left>
<tr><td>
<img src="http://graphics.boston.com/globe/images/columns/mcgrory.gif"
width=50 height=62>
</td></tr>
</table>
BRIAN MCGRORY</font><br> <!-- (7B) -->
Mooney's grass is always greener ... As the Sox return Tuesday for ...
</body></html>|

Original problems resolved. Still demonstrates some problems with <FONT> wrapped around blocks -- possible dup of bug #991 -- Ian?

I'm marking this a dup of bug 991. All the pages and test cases on this bug will be added to 991, so if 991 does not fix them then they are not lost. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 991 ***
