A TR absolutely positioned outside its ancestor TABLE leaves a gap where the row would normally be in Safari 2 and WebKit Nightly rather than collapsing that gap. This goes against the behaviour of other popular web engines (Trident, Gecko, and Presto) and against (my reading of) the CSS 2.1 specification: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visuren.html#propdef-position Here's a simple test-case that illustrates the problem. http://benjaminhawkeslewis.com/www/test-cases/absolutely-position-tr.html

Confirmed with a local debug build of WebKit r27434 with Safari 3 Public Beta v. 3.0.3 (522.12.1) on Mac OS X 10.4.10 (8R218).

Actually, looking at my Test Case in Safari 4 and WebKit Nightly, this looks fixed to me.
