Description Michael Wybrow 2007-06-21 00:21:43 PDT
This bug was noticed in Safari 3 beta and is also present in WebKit nightly r23682.

The problem occurs for a table element with a border that is using the collapsing border model.
If the number of columns in the table is determined by a single td element in each row, each with the same colspan attribute of a value greater than 3, then the right border on the table does not show up.  For example if the table contents were:
<tr><td colspan="3">Cell one</td></tr>
<tr><td colspan="3">Cell two</td></tr>

Incidently, if colspan is 2 on both those lines instead, then it displays correctly.

Reduced test case

This is a reduced test case showing the problem.  The table should show a border on four sides instead of just three.

Reduced test case

Corrected the test case to match description in original report.

Reduced test case for bugzilla.mozilla.org

Not a regression as this happens in Safari 2.0.4 on Mac OS X 10.4.11 as well.

This looks pretty bad (on bugs with no attachments) now that bugs.webkit.org has upgraded to a recent Bugzilla.

Reduced test case for border conflict resolution

This bug also manifests itself when border conflicts need to be resolved. As shown in the attached reduced test case, the thin border set on <td colspan=3> wins over the thick border set on the enclosing <tr>.
Comment 8 Konstantin Shcheglov 2011-09-15 14:11:45 PDT
I'm working on this bug now.

It seems that there is just incorrect implementation for 
RenderTable::colToEffCol().

Second problem is that that I don't understand why there is
  m_columns.fill(ColumnStruct(), 1);
in constructor of RenderTable. It causes for example that in this case we have 2 effective columns instead of one. This is BTW reason why this bug is reproducable with colSpan=3, but not with colSpan=2.
So, I'm going to remove this extra column from constructor.

Unfortunately this breaks several tests, some of which as platform specific.
However I don't see any good reason to have these tests actually platform specific and going to rewrite them using Ahem font.

Can anyone comment these ideas?

View in context: https://bugs.webkit.org/attachment.cgi?id=108228&action=review

> Source/WebCore/rendering/RenderTable.h:164
> +        for (unsigned c = 0; effCol < numCols && c + m_columns[effCol].span - 1 < col; ++effCol)

What prevents overflow in the "c + span - 1" expression?

> Source/WebCore/rendering/RenderTable.h:165
> +            c += m_columns[effCol].span;

What prevents overflow in this addition? (I know it’s not new.)
Comment 13 Konstantin Shcheglov 2011-09-22 07:21:49 PDT
Nothing prevents overflow here and in other places.
Actually once you set span a little greater than 1 billion (actually >= 2^30) we get overflow somewhere else (may be in appendColumn()) and span value in m_columns becomes invalid.


So yes, there is problem.
I'd say that all cells locations arithmetic should be done using unsigned just because this seems logical. But even in this case there still place for overflow.

I'm not sure how to solve this, except of may be adding some limitation on "span" value and number of columns, like maxColSpan=10000 and maxColCount=100000. Alternative approach is using longer number, or even number with unlimited precision. But I don't think that we should go so far.

In any case, this sounds as separate enhancement, unrelated with this bug.
Do you want me open new one?
