The problem with versions 3.1-dev (at hg.dillo.org) and 3.1-dev_grows2. Dillo 3.0.5 has no problem, since CSS `heigh` was introduced in the 3.1-dev version (not yet released). Sebastian

Simple answer: dillo 3.0.5 does not yet support CSS `height`. Sebastian

Using Dillo 3.0.5, that table looks the same in Dillo, Firefox and links/lynx (but no border in links or lynx, of course). ? Nick -- Gosh that takes me back... or is it forward?

Consider this HTML: <table style="height: 20px; border: 1px solid"> <tr> <td>Sunt autem quidam e nostris, qui haec subtilius velint tradere et negent satis esse, quid bonum sit aut quid malum, sensu iudicari, sed animo etiam ac ratione intellegi posse et voluptatem ipsam per se esse expetendam et dolorem ipsum per se esse fugiendum. itaque aiunt hanc quasi naturalem atque insitam in animis nostris inesse notionem, ut alterum esse appetendum, alterum aspernandum sentiamus.

I'm not sure which is correct, but probably we ought to do something about this, even if dillo is correct. Sebastian

Your patch makes it a sort of underscore coloured line that > passes through the text. I looked at this in detail, and found some strange behaviour in all three versions of dillo (3.0.4, 3.1-dev, and 3.1-dev_grows2). Consider this HTML: <div> A <span style="background-color: green">B</span> C </div> <div> A <span style="background-color: green"><font>B</font></span> C </div> In the first line, "B" is shown with a green background, as expected, but not in the second line, where the only difference is the <font> element. Is this a bug of the HTML parser? Sebastian

Thanks for the hard work. I don't understand what you mean by that last sentence. If dillo_grows does have a few issues, then surely merging it with hg.dillo.org will taint that too?
