Description Nadav Kavalerchik 2007-07-29 17:09:37 UTC
Version:           3.5.7 (using KDE 3.5.7, Debian Package 4:3.5.7.dfsg.1-1 (lenny/sid))
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.21-2-686

in the following url:
http://alioth.debian.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=1581&feedback=Forum+monitoring+deactivated

the table cells (the Topic column) are incorrectly aligned to the center and should be aligned to the left.

look at the tables's code for the line that has:
"<tr bgcolor="#eaeaea" align="left">"

btw. works fine in Firefox 2 (for reference)

I have tested the page in both 3.5.9 and 4.0.3 (Kubuntu Hardy 8.04) and the HTML snippet you have posted could not be found.

The code for the table headers is always <td align="center">...</td>, as well as in the end of 2006 after checking in archive.org. Table items are enclosed by <tr bgcolor="..."><td>...</td></td>

The items are indeed rendered to the left in Firefox 3.0 beta5, but both Konqueror and Opera 9.27 render the text centered, as seems to be the correct option according to the HTML code.

Could you please confirm if the bug is valid and check if the page's code has changed?

the page/code is still the same. i can still see this issue with konqueror 3.5.9

i am not an html professional. so i can not say exactly which one has it right. according the the specs/standards.

it just "seemed" to me that FF got it right, since i hardly imagine the page authors wishing to display the table aligned to the center.

i think is no alignment is set and the page's language is any ltr language then every text should be aligned to the left. (for example; you do not see normal text aligned to the center when no align=left is specifically defined)

the align center you mentioned is meant for other purposes (html elements) and it does not apply to the specific TR/TD cell. as far as i can understand html.

so if you think konqueror has it right, i really got nothing to say since i do not  know how it should really be displayed.

you decide :-)

long live the konqueror !

The webiste has been changed and the bug is no more reproducible.

Please reopen with a valid testcase (an .html file with an example would be very appreciated) Thanks! :-)
