Safari rendering CAPTION and CSS

September 29th, 2003 · No Comments · EN, Epinions

Safari is a decent browser, with a great rendering engine. It still has quirks, like the one about rendering PRE tags, and the one I’ll be talking about below.

You will notice the obvious difference in rendering the CAPTION element in the two screen captures above. The delicate part is the following chunck of CSS

caption {margin-top: 15px;}

Camino (using Mozilla Gecko) renders the TABLE and it’s CAPTION as expected, as does IE for Windows. Safari (based on KHTML) is confused by the CAPTION element found inside the TABLE element, and it will apply the property to the table itself, which is bad. Here is the test page for you to try out.

I hope Dave Hyatt is listening and ready for another Bug Roundup.

UPDATE: I am pinging an entry in David’s weblog as I got no response pinging the weblog itself.
