This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
The spec says in the rendering section "When a Document is in quirks mode, margins on HTML elements that collapse with the top or bottom of the initial containing block, or the top of bottom of td or th elements, are expected to be collapsed to zero." I see the zero-margin effect also when I set a border on body or th/td. Margins don't collapse when there's a border, so the spec is not in effect in that case, AFAICT.
# [08:20] <zcorpan> Hixie: you can have a border on body, too, and the margins will collapse # [08:21] <zcorpan> Hixie: actually... if you specify p { margin:1em 0 } in the style sheet, then margins *don't* collapse # [08:21] <Hixie> -> mail or bugs please :-) # [08:21] <Hixie> and it actually depends on the UA, last i checked # [08:21] <Hixie> webkit uses a special unit # [08:22] <Hixie> (iirc that was my idea) # [08:22] <Hixie> not sure about the other UAs
I need to change the mention of the ICB to <body>.
