[Alexandru Savulov]

in nested tables the BG color of the outer table is visible trough the inner table:

<table bgcolor="blue" >
 <tr>
  <td>
   <table bgcolor="white">
    <tr>
     <td>BLU BLU BLU</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
     <td valign="top">
      <!--<img src="http://www.zdnet.com/products/graphics/pip2/ratingbar_8.gif">-->
      BLU BLU BLU
     </td>
     <td>BLU BLU BLU</td>
    </tr>
   </table>
  </td>
 </tr>
</table>

in the first row the second cell is leaved out. the background color of the
outer table shines trough.

This really appears to be working for me on win2k with todays build.  There is a 
small edge trim of the outermost table that is visible (it almost appears to be 
one table with a thick border), but the outermost table (containing table) bg 
coor is NOT showing through.

This is also the way it looks on IE.

Marking bug as WORKSFORME.
