Hover or click any of the buttons in the testcase that contain <hr>.  The 
button will grow vertically, pushing down any text below the <hr>.  An 
exception is the button just containing the <hr>, which ends up looking like it 
contains three <hr>s but stops growing at that point.

Also note that the <hr>s inside buttons look bad in general.  HTML 4 allows 
pretty much anything in buttons besides other forms elements, and IE displays 
them nicely.

Note:

When the document has a invalid doctype 
(<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 //EN">)  [validator on w3c.org
sais.. that's not a good doctype :)]

, the buttons _won't_ grow or shrink!

See:
http://www.8ung.at/efu/butest.html

And:
http://www.8ung.at/efu/butestx.html
for more details..

butest.html is a document with the 'invalid' doctype -> works fine
butestx.html is a document with a VALID doctype -> doesn't work fine

... a html page without a doctype also won't work...
Priority: P3 → --
Testcase seems to be fine in W2K 2003011508.  No growing buttons (I did see this
ages ago).  FIXED?
Works for me on build 2003-01-09-08-trunk
