CSS Test Suite Results: Opera 3.5 beta for Windows 32-bit

Bugs

The list that follows is a list of bugs in the browser, that is, what is described is in error. I have also included a few partially supported features as bugs.

• Last run through entire suite: beta 9
• Last run through existing bugs to see if they still exist: beta 10

1.3

Underlining is ugly. There should be a stable baseline, since text-decoration is not inherited, but simply spans children.

5.2.5

• bolder should not be any bolder than bold. It is a relative descriptor, but this misunderstanding may have been due to an early incorrect version of the W3C CSS Test Suite.
• Font weight 500 should probably be rendered as bold, as per the example in the CSS2 spec.

5.2.6

ex units are way too big; they are being treated as em (However, they seem to be done right in Section 5.4.1 and other places).

5.2.7

Weight 900 is not rendered as well in this page on italic, larger fonts as it is in section 5.2.5.

5.4.3

The underlining should be a constant color, since text-decoration is not inherited, but spans over children.

5.4.4

The following vertical-align does not work: middle.

5.5.01, etc.

The TABLE's border picks up the aqua background of some of its contents.

5.5.22

The top edge of the thin maroon border (the second example) is black (or darker than the rest), as are the top and bottom edges of the double maroon medium border (the sixth example).

5.5.23

• I have display problems when I scroll down using PdDn (not with arrows), when the window size is small enough that the second square is not in the first "page" of the document.
• The width: on TABLE was completely ignored.

5.5.25

I think that according to the CSS2 spec, the vertical placement of the text around the floating images is incorrect.

5.5.25c

• The image in the second example should appear after the paragraph. The same type of problem occurs in the sixth example if one makes the window narrow.
• Due to the above problem, the page is incorrectly given a horizontal scrollbar and made wider than the viewport.

5.6.4, 5.6.6

The list marker images don't have enough padding around them. (There is exactly zero separation between the marker and the text, and that is just a function of the size of the marker.)

5.6.5

• The list-style-position: inside causes the entire list to gain extra left-margin that it should not have. (This is arguable.)
• With a small font, the text inside the table is carried to a second line even though there is room to widen the table. That is, the bullet is not counted in the line-width calculation.

Unsupported Features

• Alternate Stylesheets (1.1)
• A: active selector (2.1)
• font-family: cursive (5.2.2)
• background-attachment: (5.3.5)
• all values of display: except for block and none (5.6.1)
• white-space: (5.6.2)

Other Bugs I've Heard About (not from CSS Test Suite)

• Opera does not seem to support background color on a TR. See http://www2.hunterlink.net.au/~ddrge/magazine/mags.html.
• Opera has trouble parsing the W3C Core Styles (it doesn't pick up the A:link and A:visited). This is likely a problem with error handling with CSS2 selectors (and if it is, it would be disobeying the CSS1 rules on error-handling). See my home page.
• clear doesn't always work.
