Summary 0001028: The operator precedence table is missing the horizontal separator lines
Description The paragraph introducing the operator precedence table says: "In the following table, valid expression operations are given in groups from highest precedence first to lowest precedence last, with equal-precedence operators grouped
between horizontal lines."

However, no such separator lines can be seen or found in the HTML source code. This error may be caused in translation to HTML.

(I apologize if the page and line numbers in this report are not as intended. I couldn't find any instruction on what the source document is that they should refer to. I've only read the HTML version.)
Desired Action Add the grouping horizontal lines. If they drop out in a translation process from another format to HTML, find a way to prevent that.
Tags No tags attached.

Moved from Project "1003.1(2013/)Issue7+TC1" to "Online Pubs".

This bug reports differences between the HTML in the online version and the PDF for Issue 7 + TC1 in Table 4-1 on P2455, L78585.

This may be a browser zoom level issue. The link above shows both item separation lines and bold group lines in my version of Firefox. If there is a means to ensure lines at least 1 px and 2 px wide, respectively, adding that may be desirable.

Firefox may be showing a difference; Safari does not. And, in Safari, there is a line separating "Type of Selected" from "expr2 or expr3" in the type column in the description of "expr ? expr2 : expr3" in that table.

yes, Firefox too, but those in separate cells, it looks, so line appropriate. Similar for array index entry, "membership" in cell below "multi-dimensional". Zooming in on page Firefox changes line width to single value also, losing the bold visually; Safari may use single width for all table lines.

It would be good to know which browser and platform is being used. The html has border = 1 (and works for me on Safari, Firefox, Chrome (on Mac OS X 10.11.3) and IE 11 on Windows 7 )

I did notice a difference between the table in the html and pdf, and reworked the table cells so the expressions are grouped as per the pdf Table 4-1 pages 2455-2456
