Oh, sorry. greping for "rowspan=\"0\"" in http://www.paciellogroup.com/blog/2012/04/html5-accessibility-chops-data-for-the-masses/ and http://dotnetdotcom.org/ I find the following pages being broken in Opera but working in Firefox/Chrome: http://www.persianv.com/ http://www.quicherchetrouve.be/index.php?r1=2&an=3&anb=239&page=3 http://www.kvaak.fi/keskustelu/index.php?topic=1914.0 http://www.timekillerarcade.com/game.php?id=1941 http://www.elginisd.net/cgi-bin/calcium37.pl?CalendarName=David_Schmitt&Op=ShowIt&Amount=Week&NavType=Both&Type=List&Date=2008/8/1 I stopped after going through about half of the matches. All of these are quirks mode. I didn't find any that work in Opera/Firefox but are broken in Chrome (i.e. rely on it being unsupported in standards mode).
