Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 69785

(Core :: Layout: Tables, defect)

Description

[craiga]

The inner table of a nested table definition contains a select element with 5
options. The options do not appear in M81. N6 and ie show them.

I have a fairly simple example file I can send.

rods, can you determine if this is a select or block problem (if it is the 
latter, please reassign to attinasi). The 2nd attachment is a very simple test 
case illustrating a misplaced select.

tables have nothing to do with it... the code causing the problem:

<font size="-1"><b>Function<B></font><BR>
<select name="what" size="5">

note that this has <B> instead of </b>, so the <font> is never ended.
