Description M 2004-01-14 00:32:31 UTC

Version:           4.0 (using KDE 3.1.94 (CVS >= 20031206), compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4 20031210 (experimental)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.6.1

Text is rendered the wrong color after certain incorrect tag combinations.  3.1.2 does the right thing.  Example: http://www.opensource.org/halloween/halloween1.php  The problem seems to be caused by incorrectly overlapping tags.

Can you try to reduce the HTML to it's minimum?

Illustration of the coloring bug.

The text in this file is colored incorrectly, all green.

Comment 3 M 2004-01-14 12:11:56 UTC

The problem is caused by a <p> tag inside a <font> region.  I've attached an example.  It's possible that other combinations could cause similar things, of course.  Note that this is invalid HTML.

thanks for the analysis. That's a known regression actually
