Hello,
I have just compiled amaya-7.2 .
I have added a simple blue table here:
--------------------------------------
<html>
<head><title>a table test</title></head>
<body>
<table align=left bgcolor=blue width=200 border=1 cellspacing=10 cellpadding=0>
<tr>
<td bgcolor=yellow rowspan=2 height=300>
what now?
</td>
<td bgcolor="light green" colspan=2>
top
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td bgcolor=pink colspan=2>
bot
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
-----------------------------------
Now I would like to point to the following document:
HTML 4.01 Specification
11.3 Table formatting by visual user agents
11.3.2 Horizontal and vertical alignment
valign = top|middle|bottom|baseline [CI]
This attribute specifies the vertical position of data within a
cell. Possible values:
+ top: Cell data is flush with the top of the cell.
+ middle: Cell data is centered vertically within the cell.
This is the default value.
+ bottom: Cell data is flush with the bottom of the cell.
+ baseline: All cells in the same row as a cell whose valign ...
Now I would like to ask:
Why does Amaya use 'valign=top' as the default value?
Why does Amaya double the cellspacing at the top of the table?
