Details

The image being moved up and left 30 pixels is being moved right 60 pixels instead of left 30 pixels.
This now occurs only within the table. It is fine outside of the table.
Setting all current Open/Normal to M4.
It actually only happens when the window is maximized. It could have something to do with the length of the paragraph.
per leger, assigning QA contacts to all open bugs without QA contacts according to list at http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/describecomponents.cgi?product=Browser

This is fixed, though the test could use some strategicly placed "<BR clear=all>" to help make it easier. In particular, paragraphs 3 and 4 with a sufficiently wide window will (correctly) lead to an overlap in the two images. Because the 4th paragraphs floater has a negative top and left margin, it can overlap whatever is around it to some extent... Because there is <BR clear=all> before paragraph 4, the top line of text may be positioned to the right of paragraph 3's floater...What a mess. Anyway, everything seems to be in precisely the right place with todays checkin so hopefully when you verify this with tommorows build you won't have to reopen it...
