builds the height is shown as 0%. This works correctly if % is not used to 
mention the height of the iframe. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. view the given URL with lastest trunk build.

Actual Results: iframe has 0 height
Expected results: I frame should have height eqivalent to given height.

Reproducible: Always

Isn't it the same problem as bug 189180?

I see [quirks] in the title ... I am experiencing iframe-percentage-height
problems in Standards compliance mode too (with Firebird 0.7/Gecko20031015).

my problem:
<body>
  ...
  <div>
    <p><iframe height="xx%"></iframe></p>
  </div>
</body>

- Firebird ignores any specified percentage height and always uses some default
value (about 150 pixels?)

reading HTML 4.01 specification, <div> and <p> don't have the height atribute,
so i would expect the height of the <iframe> to be computed from it's contents
- this is in accordance with CSS 2, the default value for height is auto which
is computed from the used height of the contents in this case

p.s. sorry for my English

    
    

    
  
On Mozilla 1.6 <iframe height="xx%"> still doesn't work. If height is specified
in pixels then it's ok. It just leaves default height of iframe. I suppose
<iframe height="100%"> should work exactly like <iframe width="100%"> does
except that it  should maximise verticaly not horizontaly. It's a real show
stopper for me.

    
    

    
  
> I am experiencing iframe-percentage-height problems in Standards compliance

Per the CSS spec, percentage heights are auto if the parent height is auto. 
That's what we do in standards mode, and it's the right behavior.

This bug report is about introducing a purposeful bug in our CSS rendering for
quirks mode.

Note that every single one of these testcases has the iframe inside a table. 
This is the ONLY case when percent heights don't "work" in quirks mode, and is
already covered by bug 10212 .  The reason they don't "work" is that no one has
clearly explained what it is IE does with tables in this case.  It certainly
doesn't always set the height to 100%.
