85135 - Table percentage-width displays incorrectly

Status: VERIFIED WONTFIX

(Core :: Layout: Tables, defect)

Description

[freiheit]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (OS/2; U; Warp 4.5; en-US; rv:0.9.1) Gecko/20010608
BuildID:    2001060817

Using Mozilla/2 0.9.1 as installed, the table shown on the front page of
http://syntheticdimension.net is sized incorrectly.  The columns, going from
left to right, are hard-coded as 5% width, 10% width, 70% width, 10% width, and
5% width.  however they seem to all be about the same width in the browser at
800x600x32bit resolution.  However, using the gkcontnt.dll located in the
/bin/unopt directory, the table is properly rendered.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Browse to http://syntheticdimension.net in Mozilla/2 0.9.1 (aka. Warpzilla)
using the as-installed gkcontnt.dll.

This is an OS/2 compiler optimizer bug.

Could you attach screenshots?

I'm not sure what on this page is in a table and what's not.

Thanks

We have tracked this down to a function being optimized incorrectly and have 
sent the information to the compiler team. We await a fix.

Two things:

1. This is working in our newest build even though we optimized 
nsStyleCoord.cpp which had the problem originally.

2. We have sent this problem to the compiler folks to look at.

So there is nothing more to do on the Mozilla side.

Thanks for finding this one.

This was a compiler bug - we got the fix and verified it.
