* There was discussion about profiling the testcase for bug 352367 on the reflow branch. This bug is Firefox renders large tables with forms MUCH slower than IE (100x slower)The writer was asking about trying to reduce the calls to various functions like nsRuleNode::GetStyleData and nsStyleContext::GetStyleData . Ultimately it was mentioned that GetWidthInfo() took about 20% of the load time. Reference: [[http://groups.google.com/group/mozilla.dev.tech.layout/browse_thread/thread/3efaffa2893333c4/4d088595f0df53a2#4d088595f0df53a2| Perf question (reflow branch)]]
* In MSIE table captions are displayed at the same size as content. But in Firefox the text displays at browser default, It also exceeds the width of the table and the excess is hidden if the table is enclosed in a bounding div. The writer wants to know if Is there any way of applying a font-size to firefox table caption text while keeping the correct display in other browsers. In addition is it possible for preventing the caption width from exceeding the tables'width.
* Can the Gecko engine be used to get the width information of some HTML elements (such as table,tr,td)
