Reported 2007-08-03 14:21:11 PDT

The layout of the next-gen.biz navigation is broken in TOT. Expected results: The navigation banner links (News, Blog, ...) should appear between the banner "Next Generation" and the jobs & headlines area. Actual results: The banner links area overlaps with the jobs & headlines area. <rdar://problem/5380484>

This was broken by the removal of growing to accommodate visual overflow for table cells. The behavior of Firefox here is utterly nonsensical to me. The float is contained inside the 25px div.

WinIE just makes the table cell 50px in strict mode (as we do). It's clear to me that our rendering is correct for strict mode. The question is whether to attempt a quirk to deal with this strange situation. My inclination is to keep this open, but not to fix it at this time.

I can't rationalize the different behavior when the float becomes >25px tall.

I am not able to reproduce this bug in Safari 15.6 on macOS 12.5 using attached test cases, "the text should be in green box" does show up in "green" box and also zoom does not have any impact and it is same across all browsers (Firefox Nightly 105 and Chrome Canary 106). Since all browsers are matching, I am marking this as "RESOLVED CONFIGURATION CHANGED". If it is reproducible by someone else, please reopen. Thanks!
