User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; pt-BR; rv:1.9.1) Gecko/20090624 Firefox/3.5 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; pt-BR; rv:1.9.1) Gecko/20090624 Firefox/3.5 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) I have a table with four lines (TR) and the first line have a SELECT field. When the user changes the selected option of the SELECT field a javascript function is called. This function changes the style.display property of the other three lines between "block" (or inline, I tested both) and "none". If I change the selected option to hide and then show again the lines, the table is incorrectly draw after the lines are shown. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.In javascript, grab a reference to a TR field using getElementById 2.Assuming the reference variable is called "ref", call ref.style.display="none" 3.Now call ref.style.display="block" or ref.style.display="inline" Actual Results: The table is drawn incorrectly, if misaligned cells. Expected Results: The table should be drawn with all the cells aligned. Attached is a small HTML file that can be used to test the problem.
If you want to return to display: table-row you should say so. http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visuren.html#display-prop => Invalid ?
Sorry then. I though it was an error because in IE it works and in the past (IE 6 and bellow) display:table-row didn't work in IE. I'll try it now to see if it will work in both Firefox and IE8.
Yeah, the rendering looks correct given the markup. I suggest setting display="" to reset to default value instead of trying to guess what the default value is; this should work in all versions of all browsers.
