[css-align] normal self-alignment for abspos tables should behave as start · Issue #11285 · w3c/csswg-drafts (original) (raw)

For all other absolutely-positioned boxes, normal behaves as stretch.

That's not the case in Blink, normal behaves as start for abspos tables, and that makes sense to me.

There are tests for Blink's behavior:

• https://wpt.fyi/results/css/css-align/abspos/table-justify-self-stretch.html
• https://wpt.fyi/results/css/css-align/abspos/table-align-self-stretch.html This is consistent with the interoperable flexbox behavior

Blink also uses justify-self: normal to explain the table shrink-to-fit size in block layout
