http://www.gamespot.com The headline graphic "GAMESPOT" in a nested table
displays much to low in Mozilla (it initially appears that the cell is blank).
It displays correctly in 4.51 and IE.



This has not yet been check on Unix or Mac

*** Bug 4180 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Just a data point: using the Apr05 & Apr06 Win95 opt builds:

1) delete all cached content (but not fat.db)
2) start viewer.exe and go to www.gamespot.com
3) page exhibits the behaviour described by jeffu@netscape.com
4) _reload_ the page (that's reload NOT reflow)
5) page now lays out correctly (some table and form issues remain, but
   the "macro" layout is correct).

On this second load, most (all?) of the content (gif, jpeg, css) is in
the cache. The page has a '<LINK rel="stylesheet" ..' and uses a fair amount
of '<SPAN class= ...'. Does this ring a bell with anyone?
Target Milestone: M7
Have a look at bug #5847 -- I believe this bug is a duplicate: "The page
begins to lay itself out a second time, duplicating portions of the content,
and is apparently 'loaded' from the network a second time." You can see the
double "load" by running 'viewer -M' off of a clean cache directory. (I got
part of the characterization right in my note above).

 Kipp has marked #5847 as M15 -- Gee, is it really that evil a bug?
Moving to M9.
