Re: [WARNING: BEHAVIOR CHANGES] Table changes
Hello again,
Any idea on what this could be? Am I the only one getting the table split
problem? Thanks!
Joe.

No and no. I've had similar problems about three few weeks ago. I was on
holidays since. Unfortunately, I don't have the time right now to have
another look at it because it's pretty low on my priority list (I'm
using an older version in production which doesn't have this problem).
Do you experience this in the current CVS version?

Hi,
OK Joe, sorry to have misled you earlier. I had fixed this bug a couple
of weeks ago, but since then other changes have made it come back. I
have now got a new version about ready which fixes it again, and doesn't
seem to break anything else. But I see that someone has just committed
TableRow again, so I'll have to make sure there's no conflict between
that and what I just did. Don't lose hope; relief is coming soon.
Regards,
Karen Lease
