Description Gérard Talbot (no longer involved) 2010-04-27 04:58:39 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.4.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Testcase
--------

http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/Test/CSS2.1/20100316/html4/floats-001.htm

Actual results in Konqueror 4.4.2
---------------------------------

The blue square is located outside the black bordered rectangle.

Expected results
----------------

The blue square should be inside the black bordered rectangle touching its left inner edge.

Notes
-----
Firefox 3.5.9, Firefox 3.6.3, IE 8 and Opera 10.10 pass this test.

Reference
---------
"
A floated box is shifted to the left or right until its outer edge touches the containing block edge or the outer edge of another float. If there's a line box, the top of the floated box is aligned with the top of the current line box.

Most recent URL of testcase:
http://test.csswg.org/suites/css2.1/20110111/html4/floats-001.htm (RC5)
and
http://test.csswg.org/suites/css2.1/nightly-unstable/html4/floats-001.htm

This testcase is failed by Konqueror 4.6 only because Konqueror processes white-space *_before_* floating div#div3 and not *_after_* floating div#div3: not *_after_* removing div#div3 from normal flow of line.

Blank (U+0020) white-space processing should only apply to normal flow. It should not apply when floats are present, are involved.

Actual code
-----------
        <style type="text/css">
            #div1
            {
                border: solid 5px black;
                height: 1in; /* 1in == 96px ; standard DPI in test suite */
                width: 2in;  /* 2in == 192px */
            }
            div div
            {
                display: inline-block;
                height: 1in; /* 1in == 96px */
                width: 1in;  /* 1in == 96px */
            }
            #div3
            {
                background-color: blue;
                float: left;
            }
        </style>
    </head>
    <body>
        <p>Test passes if the blue box is on the left inner edge of the
black box.</p>
        <div id="div1">
           <div id="div2"></div>
           <div id="div3"></div>
        </div>


div#div2 is an inline-block and, after executing bullet 4, sub-bullet 2 [1], it has only one blank (U+0020) white-space remaining to its right.

We know that one single white-space (U+0020) character occupies about 5px under Linux (and about 4px under Windows) when using a normal font.

If I set the width of container #div1 to 197px (2in plus 5px), then all browsers (including Chrome 9, Safari 5 and Konqueror 4.6 which fail the testcase right now) pass:

http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/Konqueror4Bugs/floats-001-container-197px.htm

If I remove the blank white-space (which is at the right-hand side of #div2), then all browsers (including Chrome 9, Safari 5 and Konqueror 4.6 which fail the testcase right now) pass:

http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/Konqueror4Bugs/floats-001-no-separating-blank-space.htm

(Right here, this version of the testcase is reliable proof that this bug is about white-space processing more than about actual/accurate compliance with rules of floating elements)


The browsers (Chrome 9.0.597.98, Safari 5.0.x and Konqueror 4.6) that fail this test only fail because they do not remove that blank (U+0020) white-space trailing at the end of line once/after removing the floating div#div3 from normal flow.

"
As each line is laid out, (...)
3. If a space (U+0020) at the end of a line has 'white-space' set to
'normal', 'nowrap', or 'pre-line', it is also removed. 
"
16.6.1 The 'white-space' processing model
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/text.html#white-space-model

Such white-space (U+0020) removal should occur after removing the floating div#div3 from normal flow, once removing of floating div#div3 from normal flow has been carried out, executed.


[1]:
4. If 'white-space' is set to 'normal' (...)
   2. any space (U+0020) following another space (U+0020) — even a space before the inline, if that space also has 'white-space' set to 'normal', 'nowrap' or 
'pre-line' — is removed.

A quick test shows that firefix and opera passes this test, while webkitpart behaves like khtml.
