kvarnerexpress 0 Report post Posted January 19, 2006 Hi, I stambled into strange rendereng problem in firefox 1.0.7(on windows xp) when using border-collapse:collapse and direction:rtl css styles. here is a little test-case html file (see how firefox renders table in first case): Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/; <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> <title>border-collapse and rtl</title> <style type="text/css"> body{padding:50px;} table td{ padding:5px; border-width:1px;border-color:#ccc;border-style:solid; } #tblrtl{border-collapse:collapse; direction:rtl;} #tbl{border-collapse:collapse;} #tblnospcing{direction:rtl;} </style> </head> <body> <div><b>case 1:</b> with rtl and with border-spacing</div> <table id="tblrtl" cellspacing="0"> <tr><td>תא 1</td><td>כאן יש הרבה יותר טקסט</td><td>קצר ולעיניין</td></tr> </table> <br><br> <div><b>case 2:</b> without rtl and border-spacing</div> <table id="tbl" cellspacing="0"> <tr><td>תא 1</td><td>כאן יש הרבה יותר טקסט</td><td>קצר ולעיניין</td></tr> </table> <br><br> <div><b>case 3:</b> with rtl but without border-spacing</div> <table id="tblnospcing" cellspacing="0"> <tr><td>תא 1</td><td>כאן יש הרבה יותר טקסט</td><td>קצר ולעיניין</td></tr> </table> </body> </html>notice that in case 3 when ommiting border-collapse firefox renders table fine. by the way opera renders exactly like firefox does...do you understand why ff renders it like that?thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jlhaslip 4 Report post Posted January 19, 2006 Check this link out: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ I notice that border-collapse is not very well supported in almost any Browser. And they list no support at all for direction.Why the need for rtl direction? Can it be avoided? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tyssen 0 Report post Posted January 19, 2006 Border-collapse is supported by IE5+, N7+ and Opera so we're talking about at least 99% of users. And direction is right to left cos it's in a non-Roman script.It looks like it could be a bug in FF 1.0.7, but it's probably not worth worrying about cos it's been fixed for FF 1.5 (I checked in both).
