Overview: Currently, "rules" is hard-coded into Mozilla (see bug 41411), which places restrictions on CSS properties. "rules" should be implemented with style sheets or their equivalent and participate in the cascade. Some problems that can be solved by this: Bug 21076 - rules don't display without border attribute Bug 41411 - rules attribute overrides CSS Bug 25228 - border=0 overrides CSS Other bugs that will be affected: Bug 2068 - HTML4 example table not rendered correctly Bug 24113 - rules=groups does not function properly What this requires: - the CSS2 collapsing border model in working order (bug 41262) - HTML4 row & column groups with border capabilities (bug 2436, bug 915) - Table's "frame" attribute implemented with a style-sheet equivalent (already done) and *all non-visible frame borders mapped to '0 hidden', not 'none'.* (see "emulating rules with CSS" - bug 41411) http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/showattachment.cgi?attach_id=10217 (view source - comments in stylesheet)

Just comments on the CSS for now: - The rules setting border-collapse: collapse; on table should be removed; this is covered in html.css already. (Do not move this rule from html.css) - All rules dealing with td are missing equivalent selectors for th - The rules setting border: 0 hidden; on the table should be collapsed into just table[rules] { border-style: hidden; } - Change the table[border] td rule to table[border] > tr > td, table[border] > tr > th, table[border] > * > tr > td, table[border] > * > tr > th { border: thin inset; } and shift it up before the [rules] rules. - Add a rule to handle [border="0"] : table[border="0"], table[border="0"] > tr > td, table[border="0"] > tr > th, table[border="0"] > * > tr > td, table[border="0"] > * > tr > th { border-style: none; } The attribute-mapping code should now only be setting border-width and no other property. - The [rules] rules should all be given with the border shorthand. border: none solid; or border: solid none; - You forgot thead in the rules=groups rule. - Rename tablerules.css to preshint.css. bz, we need to load this into the preshint level. How do we do that?
>- Rename tablerules.css to preshint.css. bz, we need to load this into the > preshint level. How do we do that? Why is it any more preshint than most of ua.css? There are no reasonable APIs to load things into the preshint level at the moment; further, there are asserts that the preshint level contains no CSS rules. Those could be removed, of course.... and said APIs could be added.
It's preshint because that's the level it belongs in, and was in (more or less), and therefore should be in. And CSS2.1 says so, so no arguing about it! :) http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/cascade.html#q13 > Those could be removed, of course.... and said APIs could be added. That should be a separate bug. I can file it tomorrow.
filed bug 252530 for adding preshint API No dependency, because we can just @import the table rules sheet into ua.css for now.

from bug 272341 We propagate table's 'frame' and 'rules' attributes through the style system, but nobody gets them out the other end. There's no need for this. maybee the removal will help for the patch which spoiled up whith the css.
Bug 272341 contains a patch showing more code that could be removed (but skip the addition of GetAttributeChangeHint that it contains).

I don't get the style rules matching on the td. My guess is that this is a consequence of bug 211636. My knowledge of the style system did not increase over the past years (bug 87663). I simply have no idea what needs to be done here. Giving the bug back.

This patch does include the fix from bug 272341. However the selector do again not work for rows and cell. And I have neither an idea why this is so nor how to debug such a thing. :-(
the selector cannot match if the CSS comment closure looks like: *** / Thanks to Boris for spotting it.
Attached file New tablerules.css (draft) (obsolete) (deleted) —
Sorry for disappearing on you, Bernd. I'll be around more often now. :) I reorganized the rules in tablerules.css to address some problems with the interaction of 'border' and 'frame'. Note that border-collapsing and cascading are independent. :) Also added rules to match <th> elements and fixed a couple other things iirc. With this style sheet the only attribute mapping that is necessary is mapping the value of 'border' to 'border-width'. I haven't tested the code yet; I'm going to make some test cases next, then attach an updated version. There's a couple open interpretation/compatibility issues: 1. Border collapsing for rules="" and rules="none" - The current code collapses for rules="", but not for rules="none" - It also does stupid things like assume rules="" means rules="all" when the 'frame' attribute is present. - The proposed code collapses for neither rules="" and rules="none" - Opera collapses for rules="none" but not for rules=""; it basically ignores rules="" 2. Border style for table - The current code uses the outset style for the table borders. - The proposed code uses outset for 'border' borders and solid for 'frame' borders and when both are sest. - Opera uses outset whenever 'border' is present, but solid if only 'frame' is there. The spec doesn't say what to do here. I suggest we copy what Opera is doing, because it makes sense and will make at least the two of us compatible. (Safari doesn't support 'frame' or 'rules', and IE doesn't do border-collapsing for them.) If that's ok, I'll make those changes in the next revision.

C++ patch, brought up-to-date. Aside from that, the only thing that's changed is that I removed the MapTableFrameInto function, since it's no longer needed. This fix introduces a lot of very messy CSS rules to make the quirks mode border coloring work properly. We might want to fix bug 84307 first...

Attached file Color Weirdness Testcase (deleted) —
For some reason, even with that patch applied (and tablerules.css turned off), a table with 'rules' has a gray border. The grayness disappears with border-collapse: separate or explicit author CSS border-color. Bernd, any idea why this is happening?
Found the problem. There's still a lot more C++ to remove.

Fantasai: post 1.9 is coming ...., could you add some information about comment 39. Do you plan to work on this or should I steal the bug and the patch?
I don't have any concrete plans to work on it, no. If you want to steal it, though, give me a heads up right before you start working on it. FWIW I'm happy to do the CSS part for you. Wrt C++ that needs to be removed: in addition to your patch above, there seems to be a lot of code in nsTableFrame.cpp that hard-codes rules attribute handling. That needs to be removed as well.

Have you run any page-loading performance tests on this patch? It seems like it could regress performance pretty easily.
No, I haven't. Do you have a recommendation what tests should be executed?
Probably the Talos pageload performance tests that show up on tinderbox.
Bernd, for the CSS you should start with the New tablerules.css (draft) version, since we don't need to cascade in the quirks mode rules anymore. There's a typo on line 75, but other than that I think it's mostly correct.
Note that I think you can get performance numbers using http://wiki.mozilla.org/Build:TryServer

fantasai: I don't think we should change the gray shade in quirks mode. Why do you think we should change this.
I did the test with attachment 332062 [details] [diff] [review] at the TryServer. The builds are at: https://build.mozilla.org/tryserver-builds/2008-08-02_12:19-bmlk@gmx.de-table_rules_css/ The tp timing does not change across platforms within the noise of the data: Old New Diff Linux: 461.74 444.02 -17 Mac: 313.04 315.51 +2 Win: 447.52 443.86 -4 I am not sure how good is the reference point.
I don't think we should change the gray shade in quirks mode. I'm just saying the selectors in the (draft) version of tablerules.css are much simpler and we should use that as the basis for this patch, not the later version. The later version was trying to cascade in the quirky-colored border *styles* from quirk.css, which is why it has so much negation and overriding mess in it.

This patch starts now with the tablerules draft as fantasai requested. Trimming the file with the presence of the reftests was a nobrainer.

while the parser will not allow <table><td> constructs a DOM manipulation can achieve this, So I added two table> *> td rules.
Blocks: 114100
Here are my comments so far. I still want to look a bit more, especially at the removed code. I don't see why tablerules.css should be a separate file. Please just put it in html.css. You should be changing nsHTMLTableElement::IsAttributeMapped to remove attributes that are no longer mapped attributes (which I think are frame and rules, although you should double-check that there aren't any aAttributes->GetAttr() calls for them). (I'm not sure whether you also want to modify nsHTMLTableElement::ParseAttribute so that we no longer longer store them as enumerated... I should probably ask sicking what we should do here.) I'm going to make a bunch of comments on the style rules. I might be missing things that you were considering when you wrote them (including compatibility with our old behavior or other browsers), so don't rush to fix these if there are good reasons for them to be the way they are: + /* 'border' before 'frame' so 'frame' overrides + A border with a given value should, of course, pass that value + as the border-width in pixels -> attr mapping */ +table[border] { + border: thin outset; +} + /* 'border="0"' suppresses the border */ +table[border="0"] { + border: 0 hidden; +} Is there a reason that [border="0"] should not only set border-width to 0 but also border-style to hidden? Why not just make this a single rule: table[border]:not([border="0"]) { border: thin outset; } +table[frame] { + border: thin hidden; +} +table[frame="above"] { + border-top-style: solid; +} +table[frame="below"] { + border-bottom-style: solid; +} +table[frame="lhs"] { + border-left-style: solid; +} +table[frame="rhs"] { + border-right-style: solid; +} +table[frame="hsides"] { + border-style: solid hidden; +} +table[frame="vsides"] { + border-style: hidden solid; +} +table[frame="box"], +table[frame="border"] { + border-style: solid; +} I'm not crazy about the handling of unknown values of frame here. Why not skip the table[frame] rule and specify all four styles for each known value of frame, i.e.,: table[frame="above"] { border-style: solid hidden hidden hidden; } etc. + /* 'border' cell borders first */ +table[border] > tr > td, +table[border] > * > tr > td, +table[border] > tr > th, +table[border] > * > tr > th, +table[border] > td, +table[border] > th, +table[border] > * > td, +table[border] > * > th { + border: thin inset; +} +table[border="0"] > tr > td, +table[border="0"] > * > tr > td, +table[border="0"] > tr > th, +table[border="0"] > * > tr > th, +table[border="0"] > td, +table[border="0"] > th, +table[border="0"] > * > td, +table[border="0"] > * > th { + border-style: none; +} You can simply this by: (1) beginning each selector with table[border]:not([border="0"]) and eliminating the second rule (2) removing "table > tr > td" etc. given that you have "table > * > td". That said, do you really need all these options for tree structure? Did we support this for all of these combinations in the old code? In general, I'm a little concerned about handling of unknown values being inconsistent. Have you tested those cases? Are we changing our behavior? Is it becoming more or less compatible with other browsers? (I doubt specs say anything, but if they do... with specs?)
(In reply to comment #61) > I don't see why tablerules.css should be a separate file. Please just > put it in html.css. Er, actually, we should really get the preshint.css thing sorted out. > (I'm not sure whether you also > want to modify nsHTMLTableElement::ParseAttribute so that we no longer > longer store them as enumerated... I should probably ask sicking what we > should do here.) I think this should stay untouched.
That said, one of the reasons I've been hesitant to put a lot of energy into reviewing this is that I'm still somewhat skeptical that it's not going to make our performance numbers worse...
Tryserver runs talos. Can we just bounce this patch on there and see how that goes?
See comment 57, in which the noise seems like about the size of the changes I might expect.
Hmm... I guess so, for non-mac...
David, this looks like a dead lock, you are reluctant to review this for reasons that I perfectly understand, I am reluctant to spend more time on this if it does not have a chance to get reviewed. Mean while we have the nasty code in nsHTMLStyleSheet.cpp which is wrong for years now and blocks the refactoring of the border collapse computing as the rules code currently creates a position dependency for the border collapse computation. I have no problem to trash the patch entirely and start from scratch as long as the mess from nsHTMLStyleSheet.cpp and nsHTMLTableElement.cpp gets removed. The reftests that I wrote will be anyway there and will make a revision much more easy for me. Could you please propose a way that has a chance to get reviewed.
Attached patch patch (deleted) — Splinter Review
this patch addresses the review comments. I pushed it to the try server: 1. run Linux Mac Win after 232.91 - 195.62 this 234.59 - 195.78 before 233.62 - 195.70 * the mac talos did not test this. 2. run Linux Mac Win after 234.69 315.86 196.02 this 235.83 306.77 196.01 before 232.91 306.74 195.58 so it looks like this is slightly adding Linux: 1 ms (0.5%) Mac : too noisy win : < 0.5 ms What I need here is a decision will this go into the tree. And it would be cool to get this decision not after months of waiting. The arguments to take this despite the slight slow down are: 0. it fixes CSS problems that we have when running in combination with rules 1. It removes the obviously wrong code from nsHTMLStyleSheet.cpp 2. It removes a bad parameter that make table border collapse computation more complicated. If the decision is that the slow down is not worth it, I would appreciate a clear instruction what needs to be done to solve this, namely to achieve the same what arguments 0 and 1 are about. Btw, the reftest archive (attachment 321380 [details]) got already pushed.

As a victim of one of the bugs dependant on this one, with only an extreeemely slow workaround based on JavaScript, I certainely vote for checking in the patch. :-)
The 3ms on linux (but barely any change on Mac / Win) looks out of place. Noise? Assuming the patch passes review, I think the tiny Tp regressions are worth it.

But what about comment 62 -- sorting out creating a preshint.css that is actually loaded at the preshint level?
Or maybe not, actually. Maybe we should just decide that that part of the CSS spec is silly, and we should just start handling all presentational hints at the UA level. I'd be interested if fantasai has an opinion there.
(In reply to comment #69) > If the decision is that the slow down is not worth it, I would appreciate a > clear instruction what needs to be done to solve this, namely to achieve the > same what arguments 0 and 1 are about. I suspect a substantial part of the slowdown could be fixed by implementing a :-moz-in-table() pseudo class that takes a sequence of simple selectors as an argument, so that you could replace things like: table[border]:not([border="0"])> tr > td, table[border]:not([border="0"])> * > tr > td, table[border]:not([border="0"])> tr > th, table[border]:not([border="0"])> * > tr > th, table[border]:not([border="0"]) > td, table[border]:not([border="0"])> th, table[border]:not([border="0"])> * > td, table[border]:not([border="0"]) > * > th { with: td:-moz-in-table(table[border]:not([border="0"])), th:-moz-in-table(table[border]:not([border="0"])) { That said, do we even know whether there is a slowdown? Is try talos accurate enough?
fantasai's opinion is that the preshint requirements of 2.1 don't go far enough and should have included things like b { font-weight: bold; }. But it is also her opinion that the loading of tablerules.css at preshint or not at preshint level should not block this bugfix.

Comment on attachment 366160 [details] [diff] [review] patch Reviewing the "updated to tip" patch, but marking here since that's where the request is. >+++ b/layout/reftests/table-bordercollapse/reftest.list Can you maybe add an == line comparing borderhandling-ref.html to a test that sets borders and maybe border-collapse purely through CSS? >+++ b/layout/style/html.css >+ /* 'border' before 'frame' so 'frame' overrides I'm not quite following this... These two rules, for example: >+table[border]:not([border="0"]) { border: thin outset; } >+table[frame="above"] { border-style: solid hidden hidden hidden;} Mean that <table border="1" frame="above"> will have outset borders all around, won't it, since the first rule has higher specificity than the second rule. That doesn't seem to be current behavior. If we want to keep the current behavior, we probably need to change the frame rules here to something like: table[frame][frame="above] { border-style: solid hidden hidden hidden; } to up the specificity, and add a comment explaining why we're doing that. Can we add some regression tests for this? Also, should the |table[frame]| rule also override the [border]-set style? In that case it should be |table[frame][frame]|. But I thought dbaron asked forthat to be removed in comment 61. Is there a reason it's still present? >+ /* Don't set hidden if there's no frame, no border, and rules=none */ >+table[rules="none"]:not([frame]):not([border]), >+table[rules="none"]:not([frame])[border="0"] { >+ border: none; >+} That rule could use more comment. That's effectively overriding the default |table[rules]| styling with "border-style:none" and default border width, instead of border-style hidden, right? Why do we need this override? >+table[border]:not([border="0"])> tr > td, >+table[border]:not([border="0"])> tr > th, ... >+table[border]:not([border="0"])> * > td, >+table[border]:not([border="0"]) > * > th { As dbaron said in comment 61, those last two selectors match in all cases where the first two match, and more besides. So no need for the first two. On the other hand, as dbaron also asked, do we actually support all these combinations in the old code? Do we need to keep supporting them? Do we actually want to put borders on the <tr> in this XHTML: <table border="1"> <div> <td></td> </div> </table> or do we not care either way? It seems a little odd to me to put borders on the <td> in that case, but does make the rules simpler (and fewer).... >+ /*'rules' overrides 'border' settings */ All the rules in this section have lower specificity than the table[border]:not([border]) rules in the previous section, so don't override them, as far as I can see. That seems like a regression from addressing some of dbaron's comments, but we should have tests for this.... again, this can be fixed by repeating the [rules] selectors as needed. >+table[rules] > tr > td, >+table[rules] > * > tr > td, >+table[rules] > tr > th, >+table[rules] > * > tr > th { This doesn't have the |table > td| and |table > * > td| selectors we have in the [border] section. I personally think that's ok and we should remove those rules from that section too.... Why not just "border: thin none" for the actual declaration here? Is there a reason to not set border props other than style/width here? >+table[rules="cols"] > tr > td, >+table[rules="cols"] > * > tr > td, >+table[rules="cols"] > tr > th, >+table[rules="cols"] > * > tr > th { >+ border-style: none solid; >+} Why do you not need "border-width: thin" here, unlike in the rows case? The rest of this looks fine, but I'd really like to see the additional tests exercising these selectors, then see the selectors fixed. Sorry again for the lag here; now that I've sorted through the annoying (and not likely to change, since it's all code removal) parts of this patch, future reviews should be much faster!

1) I revised the rules 2) There are now two test cases that test frame vs border in 50 different scenarios and rules vs border in 35 scenarios. 3) removed more code from nsHTMLTableElement.cpp as the border mapping to the TD is now done in CSS. The removal of code (including the previously done) opens the path to go for the table part of bug 211636 4) we need the more extensive border rules as otherwise dom manipulated tables will not draw borders around the TD. see http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/layout/reftests/bugs/363370-1.html and http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/layout/reftests/bugs/368651-1.html. They rely on pseudo frame creation. In the static case the offending tag would be pushed out, but in the dynamic case it will not.

Bernd, can you possibly post an interdiff between the two patches? The bugzilla interdiff seems to be lying to me (and in particular is too small to account for the size difference between the two, I think).
Attached patch Interdiff in question (deleted) — Splinter Review
Nevermind; I got hg to just cooperate. Looks like bugzilla was missing a lot of test files.
change notices for the interdiff nsHTMTableElement.cpp thats 3) from comment 80 the changes for bordercol.css are intended to leave the color unchanged with respect to out current rendering the change from &nbsp; to <div/> are to due to linux and macs doing strange things with pixel alignment (tryserver is great) then come the new test cases as required and finally the revised rules.
I had a full green run try server run today at 00:26
Comment on attachment 419865 [details] [diff] [review] revised patch >+++ b/layout/style/html.css >+ /* Put this first so 'border' and 'frame' rules can override it. */ >+table[rules] {border: thin hidden;} Please put spaces after the '{' and before the '}' (and similar for the other rules here). Newlines might be even better for this rule, but I can see how for some of the "frame" rules they aren't desirable. >+/*increased specifity to compete with [border]:not([border="0"]) rule above*/ "specificity", not "specifity". And spaces after "/*" and before "*/", please. Similar for other comments here. >+/*'rules' overrides 'border' settings (increased specifity to achieve this)*/ >+table[rules]:not([rules=""]) > tr > td, It's probably better to do: table[rules][rules] > tr > td and the like. Easier to read, and a bit faster to match. Unless you really do want to be checking for nonempty rules="..." values here? If so, why? That could use a comment. This is still missing the "table > td" and "table > th" selectors that the border rules have. Either put those selectors in both places, or neither, right? Need that here, for [rules="none"] and for [rules="all"]. With those issues fixed, looks good.

I pushed http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/ef065d84aaa4 I looked up 8 tp4 datasets on linux before the checkin and 8 after the checkin, the tp4 times are with std dev. after: 521.92 +- 2.21 before: 522.26 +- 1.86 on the mac. after: 643.06 +- 11.01 before: 644.15 +- 18.44 on windows (with only 6 samples) after: 600,58 +- 29.17 before: 631,46 +- 30.53 So in non of the cases I did observe a performance degradation that is measurable with tp4. One could claim a improvement on win tp4. But he numbers there oscillate so much that I would not rely on them.
