From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.73 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.15-4mdksmp i686) BuildID: 2000063008 The page is render is the wrong way missing style and a table Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.go to URL: http://www.sun.com/products/staroffice/get.html;$sessionid$DVJHUXAAAFTKDAMTA00E45Q 2. you can also go to http://www.sun.com 3.and then go to any free dot com software: aka staroffice, solaris or java and see that all those pages have the same problem. and they work fine on netscape 4.72 Linux
Changing OS to all as I see the style difference under Win98 with 2000062720. kfir.shay@cornell.edu could you attach a screenshot with problem I do not understand which table is missing. Please describe it in more detail. Bernd

i have a testcase for this. testcase uses the same doctype as the orginal page <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd"> When i remove the doctype borders are correct. When you remove the font tag around the table, borders are also visible
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
there are two further testcases -> similar problem (missing tags) can be found under bug 44463

The behaviour of the page and the testcase has changed on June 29 due to the checkin related to bug 43274. The page is now parsed in transitional mode and the layout is strict. See see http://www.bath.ac.uk/%7Epy8ieh/cgi/compat-test.pl The page contains an invalid <font> tag around the table (validator.w3.org) So the question is how invalid html code has to be rendered, should mozilla switch back to the compatibilty mode, then this bug would be duplicate 43274 or at least related to this bug otherwise the bug is simply invalid.
Marking the bug invalid as the document source contains invalid html, while the document claims to be 4.0 transitional

i think it should not render invalid html, but the table borders should not disappear !!
If my understanding of HTML 4.0 is right, <font> is defined only for the loose.dtd and not for strict.dtd. (see the elements table in the specification). That sounds reasonable since <font> is depreceated. The last testcase also will not pass the validator.w3.org, which claims, that there is no <font> element.
As the strict.dtd does not know the <font> tag it is ignored and so the table is normaly displayed
