Bug 66813 – fast/multicol/span/span-as-nested-inline-block-child.html is misleading

• Status: NEW
• Component: Layout and Rendering

[Peter Kasting]

Per IRC conversation with dhyatt: The text on fast/multicol/span/span-as-nested-inline-block-child.html should just say that all the text should be in the columns, and none should span across both columns.  It's not a requirement that the third paragraph start in the left column.

Hyatt, how's this look?

I have been told that the easiest way for me to get new baselines for this test is to check in, wait for the builders to fail, and then use webkit-patch to rebaseline :(.

That won't help all the other platforms.  I'd still need to check in and then collect baselines for (n - 1) platforms.  I don't see how rebaselining one makes any difference.

Besides this I'm not in a position to be able to rebaseline on any platforms :(  Help?

We have this test twice:

fast/multicol/span/span-as-nested-inline-block-child.html

and

fast/multicol/newmulticol/compare-with-old-impl/span-as-nested-inline-block-child.html

We can delete one copy and if needed, I can rebaseline this based on this patch.

Adding 'Alan' because it seems to be 'Layout' related test.
