Details

In the linux today part of the page there is a ul-list where the first item have a smaller fonts then the rest although that there is no html-directive to change font. In other browsers, like ns 4.75, every item in the list have the same fontsize. This is an _old_ bug that have been in mozilla a long time.
The problem seems to be that the <font size="-1"> right before the list is only applied to the first element.... In fact, the problem code looks something like this: <A href="http://linuxtoday.com"> <br clear=all><FONT size="-1" face="helvetica"><p><UL> <LI><A href="http://linuxtoday.com/news_story.php3?ltsn=2001-02-06-004-04-NW-MS"> Microsoft.com: Microsoft Small Business Server - How Does Linux Compare? </A> <LI><A href="http://linuxtoday.com/news_story.php3?ltsn=2001-02-05-008-04-PS"> Alan Cox: Linux kernel 2.4.1ac3 </A> and so on. That first unclosed <a> is what is causing the problem. Over to parser for further triage.

Maybe that unclosed <a> is triggering some sort of bug 991-like issues?
Not seeing this on windows in mozilla0.8. Boris, shouldn't this go to layout instead? The document is correctly parsed afaik adding qawanted keyword
