Please take a look at this page. It does not layout properly (and never has as far as I know) using nglayout. It looks like the table columns are not being spaced out properly.

This seems to be table layout hell; Alternatively, it's a parser bug. Steve will know which it is, so I'm assigning it to him.

This page is full of some truly aweful HTML. I've reduced the page down to two primary problems. 1. The first is a <br> tag between table rows. This seems to split the table. There is a comment in the test case below for Rick to remove the offending <br> to see the problem. 2. The second problem is much less clear, probably a closure bug in the parser. There is a comment in the test case below for Rick to remove the <CENTER> tag to see the effect of this bug. ================ test case =================== <html><BODY topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" BGCOLOR="#ffffff" LINK="#7d5111" ALINK="#0099cc" vlink="#c8811b"> <TABLE WIDTH="604" BORDER="0" CELLSPACING="0" CELLPADDING="0"> <TR> <TD ROWSPAN="4" WIDTH="130" VALIGN="TOP" BGCOLOR="yellow">xxx</TD> <TD WIDTH="5" ROWSPAN="4" VALIGN="TOP" BGCOLOR="#ffffff">yyy</TD> <TD WIDTH="464" ROWSPAN="4" VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="CENTER" BGCOLOR="#ffffff"> <table width="455" border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2"> <tr> <td width="100%"> <center><a href="/previews/wargasm_1.phtml"><img width=450 height=150 SRC="http://www.ogr.com/graphics/homepage/wargasm-homepage.jpg" border="0" alt="Wargasm Preview"></a><font size="-1" face="verdana,arial"></center></font> </td> </tr> <!-- RICK: remove this tag, and problem 1 goes away --><br> <tr> <td width="100%" bgcolor="#d9dea2"></td> </tr> <tr> <td width=100% align=top></td> </tr> <tr> <td> <!-- RICK: remove this tag, and problem 2 goes away --><CENTER> <TABLE WIDTH="455" BORDER="0" CELLSPACING="3" CELLPADDING="0"> <TR> <TD WIDTH="151" VALIGN="TOP" BGCOLOR="#84ce00" ALIGN="CENTER"> <a href="/reviews.html"><IMG SRC="http://www.org.com/graphics/core/reviews-l.gif" alt="Latest Reviews" WIDTH="94" HEIGHT="29" ALIGN="BOTTOM" border=0></a><BR> <FONT SIZE=-1> <a href="/hardware/marvel_g200_1.phtml"><font face=arial color=#000001>Marvel G200</a></font><br> <font face=arial color=#000001>Intensor Gaming Chair</font><br> </FONT> </TD> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> </TD> <TD WIDTH="5" ROWSPAN="4" VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="RIGHT" BGCOLOR="#ffffff"></TD> </tr> </table> </FORM> </BODY> </html>

[Just for the record, it's still rendering wackily and differently from Comm 4.x using 11.23a.98 Seamonkey builds.]

Verified fixed on 2.8.99 Mac OS build. However, it doesn't look right on the 2.4.99 Win32 or Linux builds; holding to formally mark as verified until the 2.9.99 builds are available.
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
Looks great on the 2.9.99 Win32 & Linux builds. (okay, there was this small issue of a Win32 blue screen while scrolling down the page, but that's unrelated. ;) Thus, verified.
Fix was bad, DOM events will be null because is on the way *in* from frames, meaning we havn't build the DOM event yet. My bad (saari typing) for not catching this!

Doesn't sound like a very high priority bug. Setting to FUTURE.

This lays out fine in Linux 2000-08-13-09. This bug is old and grey. Eli previously WFM'd this on Windows and Mac. The only thing I am confused by is saari's comment. I think that was meant for another bug. The next person who dusts this one off should resolve, IMHO.
This appears to work fine now-- not as the result of any known bug fix.
