From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Windows 95) BuildID: 2000111404 <table background="foo.jpg"> renders foo.jpg independently as multiple backgrounds for all cells in the table. The CSS-1 property background-image also produces this effect. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to http://justdd.metropoli2000.com 2. Look at the ListBot registration area: the background is repeated for each cell of the table layout. 3. Load the page in IE4+ for comparison. Actual Results: Each cell (<td>) of the table has a background inherited from the <table> tag (I guess they shouldn't...) Expected Results: Render a single background for the whole table. Attaching testcase...
By the way, the formatting in the test case is there just for ease at spotting the effect (both in the <table> tag and the mini-stylesheet).
This is intentional (wrong) behaviour for backwards compatibility. If you want correct behaviour, use a strict DTD instead of the transitional one, e.g.: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"
