Summary whole page has incorrect layout

I Steps: Go to http://video.sina.com.cn/pv/ II Issue: whole page has incorrect layout III Conclusion: The issue is caused by the child <div> 's style: float: left. Notice that the style='float:left' is specified in the child <div> not the parent <div>, so the content after the parent <div>(in this case it is a table) should be rendered in a new line, however webkit/FF3 parses the code wrongly and just let the content follow the parent <div>, not start in a new line webkit/FF3 take the child's style style='float:left' as the parent's style III Other Browsers: IE7: ok FF3: not ok IV Nightly tested: 37382

The referenced site no longer seems to have a problem, but based on the attached testcase, this is expected behavior. Here is an inline variant of the testcase (slightly altered for readability only): <!DOCTYPE html> <div id=container> <div id=float>I'm a float!</div> </div> <div id=following>I'm the last thing on the page!</div> <style> #container { width: 500px; border: thick dotted red; } #float { float: left; width: 500px; height: 200px; background: silver; } #following { width: 500px; height: 200px; background: cornflowerblue; display: table; } </style> Because #container is not a BFC, it will not contain its float. You can see by its border that it is zero-height. Thus, any following content will go directly below it, *not* below the float unless the 'clear' property is used. (Depending on exactly how you structure the testcase, it may *look* like the content goes below the float, if the following content is not a BFC and contains text.) As such, I'm marking this as INVALID, since this is expected behavior.
