           Summary: MultiLengths Ignored on COLGROUP and COL Width Attribute
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 417.x
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tables
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at opendarwin.org
        ReportedBy: webkit at brodale.net


Use of multilengths (or relative lengths) for the value
of width attributes set for a table colgroup or col seem
to be ignored by Safari. Percentage lengths work as
expected.

Although reported against OS X 10.4.x, the same errant
behavior can be seen with OS X 10.3.9, as well.

Recent versions of Opera, Camino, Firefox, and Internet
Explorer (both Windows and OS X builds) respect the use
of multilengths, which are defined in the W3C's HTML 4.0.1
Specification.
