A spanning cell with Vertical-align set to 'baseline' aligns the cell's content baseline (which is the bottom of the first line of text or in-flow content) with the baseline of the first of the rows it spans.

The baseline on a rowspan is 0 except for the last row per calcRowLogicalHeight's computation. This is causing other bugs with rowspans but for now, it looks like you should be using the last row in the row span. This should work in the children flexing case above as we do the computation for each row in a row span (this is a HUGE FIXME btw).
Comment on attachment 142763 [details] Patch View in context: https://bugs.webkit.org/attachment.cgi?id=142763&action=review By the way, while touching this code, let's use better names (|b| is really uncool). >> Source/WebCore/rendering/RenderTableSection.cpp:633 >> + intrinsicPaddingBefore = getBaseline(cell->rowIndex()) - (b - oldIntrinsicPaddingBefore); > > For the record, I wonder if this is correct. > > The baseline on a rowspan is 0 except for the last row per calcRowLogicalHeight's computation. This is causing other bugs with rowspans but for now, it looks like you should be using the last row in the row span. This should work in the children flexing case above as we do the computation for each row in a row span (this is a HUGE FIXME btw). After thinking it over, the patch is correct when the baseline is not determined by rowspans. I still think the patch could make us regress some combination of rowspan and baseline alignment (I wish I had a concrete example but I don't have time to look into that) due to calcRowLogicalHeight putting the extra space to the last row in a rowspan. AFAICT our testing is lacking for vertical-align + rowspan. If you added more tests for that (or pointed out some testing I missed), it would help to convince me.

Also all your example have the cells that don't belong to the first one in the rowspan empty (they end up being 2 pixels due to the default border spacing). Would it be possible to give them some real size (maybe also some color) as this would cover more the issue I had in mind? >> LayoutTests/ChangeLog:33 >> + * platform/chromium-linux-x86/fast/css/vertical-align-baseline-rowspan-006-expected.txt: Added. > > I've kept png results here to ease review - I plan to add ref tests to the patch for landing. Thanks for pointing this out. Aren't some of the baselines a bit off? (like for 006, I would have expected the middle text's baseline to be aligned with the other cells' text baselines)
