Bug 14202 – Table caption renders too narrow sometimes

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: Layout and Rendering

[David Kilzer (:ddkilzer)]

* SUMMARY
Loading the URL on this bug sometimes results in a caption that is too tall.

* STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch Safari/WebKit.
2. Open attached test case.
3. If caption under image is not a skinny column, reload the page until it is rendered that way.

* EXPECTED RESULTS
The caption under the image should fill the width of the image and only occupy 4-5 lines of text.

* ACTUAL RESULTS
The caption under the image is about 1 inch wide and occupies numerous lines of text.

* REGRESSION
Unknown since I can't test with archived Safari 2.0.4 (419.3) with the 3.0 beta installed.

* NOTES
See attached screenshot as well.

Test case (web page, complete)

Test case for the bug.  This page was saved from Firefox 2.0.0.4 as "Web page, complete".

Unzip the file and open table-caption-issue-ff.html.

Note that there is also a JavaScript error on the page, but I don't think this impacts the layout:

SyntaxError: Invalid regular expression: internal error: code overflow

Mark the caption for relayout when the table width changes

This improves the results on several Mozilla tests, but caption width still seems to be off by a few pixels when the table has a border. That's a separate bug, however.
