Summary Handling of misnested tags results in entire page appearing as link
Mark Rowe (bdash)
Reported 2007-02-18 21:56:42 PST
Steps to reproduce: 1) Load http://www.avalon5.com/index.php/personal/oh-crap-im-turning-into-one-of-them/. 2) Note that the majority of the page content starting from "Picture the scene" is a clickable link. Firefox renders the page "correctly". A reduction of the page shows that the closing </a> tag is missing towards the top of the document. This is not a regression, the behaviour is identical in Safari 2.0.4.

Duplicate of bug 12694?

It sounds like the same symptoms as bug 12694, but without being able to reproduce it I cannot tell if the cause is the same.
