When a tables specifies a background image, this should be the background for
the entire table. However, mozilla starts the background image again in every
cell. The cell does not specify a background of its own.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Just load the page


Actual Results:  When a tables specifies a background image, this should be the
background for the entire table. However, mozilla starts the background image
again in every cell. 

Expected Results:  The table should have just one background image and cells
should not repeat this. 

no.
Been seeing this behavior for months on NT.  Also seeing it on 95 (Build
2001032904).
From bug 29187:

You are seeing the NavQuirks behavior. You need <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC 
"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/strict.dtd"> to get 
the correct behavior.

Basically, the page in question has the doctype <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC
"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">, which does not have the URI and so
triggers the quirks mode...

See also bug 4510 which covers getting rid of this quirk behavior
