wiki page display problem

Ross Boylan
http://smalltalk.gnu.org/wiki/Status has a huge blank area above the
table.  In fact I thought the table wasn't there.  I was using
firefox/iceweasel 3 from Debian GNU/Linux.

I didn't see anything wrong in the underlying HTML on a quick look, but
something's screwy.

I'm hoping this is an OK place to report the problem.

Ross

there's about a zillion <br/> above the table, which are the cause
of this.

I think it's a wikifier bug.

And they are caused by using the MediaWiki input format,
which does not ignore the line breaks used in the table between
TDs, which in turn get rendered above the table by FF.

<p><table width="60%"><br />
<tr><br />
<td><strong>Subsystem</strong></td><br />
<td><strong>Stability</strong></td><br />
<td><strong>Feature full</strong></td><br />
<td><strong>Sunit-ready</strong></td><br />
<td><strong>Used day-by-day</strong></td><br />
</tr><br />

Switching to "Filtered HTML" makes that problem go away, but
you'd lose the [[links]] to other pages.

Uhm, I was sure I had removed the <br> conversion from the format for
this exact reason.  I'll take a look at the source code.

With a little vim hacking, I converted the html markup to
wikimedia markup, so the page now renders correctly.
