Created attachment 219090 [details] testcase What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Load attached testcase. EXPECTED RESULTS: Both "table-cell, ..." lines should have a black border and a lime background. ACTUAL RESULTS: The first "table-cell, ..." line has a solid black line above it, and no background. As described at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=928074#c22, I think this indicates that WebKit is incorrectly generating an anonymous *block-level* table element to wrap the table-cell. This goes against the CSS 2.1 spec -- as described in step 3 substep 2 at http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/tables.html#anonymous-boxes , "(If C's parent is an 'inline' box, then [the generated anonymous table] must be an 'inline-table' box; otherwise it must be a 'table' box.)" And in the testcase, the parent is a <span>, which is an inline box. So, WebKit should generate an inline-table and match the rendering of the lower line that has an explicit inline-table. I tested with two webkit-based browsers on Ubuntu 13.10: - Midori 0.4.3 (not sure what WebKit version) - epiphany-browser 3.6.1 (which says "Powered by WebKit 1.10.2") Both show ACTUAL RESULTS. Firefox 26 shows EXPECTED RESULTS See also the related Blink bug, here: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=327832

As I discovered (via a few hops) on the Blink version of this bug, this issue may be a variant of bug 21092. (Though I'm not sure, since there appear to be several related issues; bug 21092 seems to be primarily about a problem with <table style="display:inline">.) Adding dependency to establish the connection, at least (though this may end up just being a duplicate).

All browsers (Chrome Canary 134, Firefox Nightly 136 and WebKit ToT) seems to render this similar, so marking this as 'Configuration Changed'.
