User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:13.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/13.0.1

Steps to reproduce:

I viewed the Link Information page on a Kyocera iBurst modem.


Actual results:

The table cell representing the signal strength as a percentage was rendered too tall for my display, requiring me to scroll down.


Expected results:

The table cell should only have been 12 pixels tall.  It was displayed correctly on other browsers tested.

We have this in both modes.
Opera and IE8 have this "bug" only in standards mode.
Webkit (Chrome20) "works" in both modes.

David, the critical point here i not "height=100%", the same large cell without it.
I keept the height in the reduced testcase only because otherwise IE8 doesn't show the yellow bar.

> the critical point here is not "height=100%"
I mean the hight on <td> here, not on <img>

Greasemonkey script to work around the problem:

Replaces '<img src="yellow.gif" height="100%"' with '<img src="yellow.gif" height="12"'.
