Their # relation is given by the following equation, which holds for # every row of the table: # # row-width = (0.5 * border-width_0) + padding-left_1 + # width_1 + padding-right_1 + border-width_1 + # padding-left_2 +...+ padding-right_n + # (0.5 * border-width_n) # # Here n is the number of cells in the row, padding-left_i and # padding-right_i refer to the left (resp., right) padding of # cell i, and border-width_i refers to the border between # cells i and i + 1. But what does "the border between cells i and i + 1" actually refer to? Simon Sapin thinks that the border conflict resolution needs to happen before the layout, so that there is only one border between cells i and i+1 by the time we care about it.
