Details

While NT's bug report says it has been fixed the cell BGCOLOR bug does not appear to be fixed in MacOS X yet. This on the Fizilla nightly build 0.9.2 from July 13, 2001. Many people will want to use tables for adding color coding to their website, and to have to add a &nobr; to each cell in order just to have colored cells without having to put images in those cells, makes it hard to have a table of colors. This bug predates the Mozilla project, as also Netscape 4.7.6 for NT has the bug, and Netscape Communicator 4.7.7 for Macintosh has it too. What I want to show in the table is http://www.index-site.com/browser.html there I have added & nobr; to let people see it in whatever browser, but not every webmaster would be aware of this bug. Please update Fizilla to support <TD BGCOLOR="#HEX"></TD> with no space between the open TD and close TD. HEX is any HEX value for the colorsafe colors. Thank you.
resolving duplicate of bug 90247. Please reopen bugs instead of filing them anew if you disagree with the resolution. abrody@smart.net, did you read the comments that Bernd Mielke and I made on bug 90247? did you read the comments on bug 8113 (of which bug 90247 is a duplicate)? We have a quirks mode in which we emulate some behaviors of NS 4.x, this table cell background behavior being one of them. We have a strict mode in which we have the behavior you seem to want. To get backgrounds to show in empty cells you need to: 1) Put the page in strict mode by adding an appropriate doctype or 2) Add the style rule "table { empty-cells: show }" to the page while leaving it without a doctype (though pages without a doctype are automatically invalid HTML). If you have a testcase that does either one of these things and on which Mozilla does not show the background color under OS X, please reopen bug 90247 and attach the testcase in question to it. If you have any questions, feel free to email me. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 90247 ***
