Uqbar - but Comment 324 was effectively negated by Comment 347, where this bug was reopened. I think I had something to do with that, but regardless, I'm just trying to be helpful here at this late stage of the game.
aceman - you do have a valid point. I'm definitely not willing to try myself to persuade the W3C to re-include align/valign/etc. in the HTML5 spec, and I don't know what debates have taken place within the working group on this topic, but think of it this way: if HTML5 is supposed to be a spec based on the current support of HTML5 in modern browsers, don't you think it could possibly change their mind if a real implementation was made by Mozilla and then followed by WebKit? That would mean support in all 5 of the major modern browsers, and then maybe there would be a stronger reason to reinclude it in HTML5. As has been pointed out here numerous times, <col> is effectively useless without align, and there is no alternative CSS approach that could possibly be as useful as the align attribute from HTML4. I think it's still worth a shot. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/353877 Title: FF doesn't render the properties and the styles of <COL> tags To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/353877/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
