<P>The properties 'top', 'right', 'bottom', and 'left', incorrectly
175+
refer to offsets with respect to a box's content edge. The proper edge
176+
is the margin edge. Thus, for 'top', the description should read,

<P>The height calculation for block-level, non-replaced elements in
183+
normal flow, and floating, non-replaced elements is not quite correct.
184+
The height calculation should read as follows:</P>
185+
186+
<p>If <span class="propinst-top">'top'</span>, <span
187+
class="propinst-bottom">'bottom'</span>, <span
188+
class="propinst-margin-top">'margin-top'</span>, or <span
189+
class="propinst-margin-bottom">'margin-bottom'</span> are 'auto',
190+
their computed value is 0. If <span
191+
class="propinst-height">'height'</span> is 'auto', the height depends
192+
on whether the element has any block-level children and whether it has
193+
padding or borders.
194+
195+
<P>If it only has inline-level children, the height is the distance
196+
between the top of the topmost line box and the bottom of the
197+
bottommost line box.
198+
199+
<P>If it has block-level children, the height is the distance between
200+
the top border-edge of the topmost block-level child box and the
201+
bottom border-edge of the bottommost block-level child box. However,
202+
if the element has a non-zero top padding and/or top border, then the
203+
content starts at the top <em>margin</em> edge of the topmost child.
204+
Similarly, if the element has a non-zero bottom padding and/or bottom
205+
border, then the content ends at the bottom <em>margin</em> edge of
206+
the bottommost child.
207+
208+
<P>Only children in the normal flow are taken into account (i.e.,
209+
floating boxes and absolutely positioned boxes are ignored, and
210+
relatively positioned boxes are considered without their offset). Note
