Reduced test case: <html> <head> <style> body {font-family:monospace; } table, tbody, tr, td {border-style:dotted; border-width:6px; } .tb1 {border-spacing:inherit; } </style> </head> <body> <table class ="tb1"> <tr> <td>AAA</td><td>BBB</td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> Open the test case above and inspect the computed trace for table.tb1. It contains: -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; table - 2px user agent stylesheet even though "border-spacing: inherit;" is specified in the ".tb1" rule.
