Summary Worldbank tables do not display correctly, losing information.

Reported 2005-07-18 12:43:22 PDT
The world bank uses front page to create their data tables, and something in the HTML causes the top of the tables to be trimmed. Note in the above URL that the first country listed is Angola. Algeria is trimmed, and Albania is missing entirely. In addition, the right column of the page is not laid out in a way that can be seen. A web archive of the page is available at <http://homepage.mac.com/fuz/Table%204.15%20|%20Balance% 20of%20payments%20current%20account.webarchive>, in case the world bank removes the original.

Confirmed in 10.3.9. Frontpage produces very poor html so that'll be the problem. doesn't work in Gecko either. I'm quite impress that Opera gets it right though.

Confirmed that rendering is wrong, but I'd have to say this is a wontfix, i've tried reducing it but the html is so incredibly bad that there is no use. Firefox doesn't get it right either so i don't feel tempted to do this... anyone else? Reassigning to webkit-unassigned.

If nothing else, it would be worth trying to come up with some statement of what is wrong, and sending it to them. Perhaps they can be coerced into changing their HTML if given a decent list of why it bites. Scott

The site has changed a lot, and I couldn't find any table like this on it anymore. The attached webarchive is rendered the same way in WebKit and Firefox, so I suggest closing this bug.

Safari, Chrome, and Firefox all have the same behavior on the attached webarchive, so I believe the compatibility issues have been resolved.
