Update: this bug is INVALID since, according to CSS 2.1, vertical-align should only apply to table-cells and inline elements. Also, vertical-align is not inherited and is not inheritable. Sorry about that.

Opera Bug 234069: CSS vertical-align on table row does not apply to table cells

1st col. & row 2nd col. 3rd col. 4th col.
2nd row abcd abc ab
3rd row abcd abc ab
Row alignment

Expected results: text in each of the 4 cells of the selected row should move up and down within that selected table row.
