Using DHTML, when trying to hide a <TBODY> of the table on
http://www.clanwork.net/forum/, table rows are not correctly redrawn after
making the <TBODY> visible again (rows become partially black where the correct
BGCOLOR should be seen).

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. open referenced page (http://www.clanwork.net/forum/)
2. click on the +/- icon next to some category's caption in the table
3. click a few more times
4. reload the page a few times and repeat 2 & 3 if the bug doesn't occur

Actual Results:  the first table row of the <TBODY> is displayed correctly while
parts of the second row show partially black.

Expected Results:  show the correct BGCOLOR (gray or silver).

sample code: (view code of page http://www.clanwork.net/forum/)

 works fine for me on linux 7.1 build : 2002-02-25-080-trunk.
I have tried the given steps 4-5 times but still unable to produce it.

found the bug again in several builds until the one I'm using now
(2002041711/win32). to reproduce, I've found another step 1a):

1a) before clicking on the +/- icon, hover over the link next to it.

I am attaching a screenshot so you can see what I mean even if you're not able
to reproduce the bug.

Attachment: Screenshot of how it should not look like.

you might want to try it yourself:
- visit http://www.clanwork.net/forum/
- hover over some links (perhaps even click around a few times :))
- click the (-) symbol next to "news, updates"
- perhaps hover over some links again?
- click the (-) symbol (should be + now) again
- see if it matches the screenshot

sorry everybody, the last recent change of the site's design, it seems to be
impossible to be reproduced.
note that it was not fixed by updating the browser but by changing the site. the
initial problem remains, but I can't find any way to reproduce it anymore.
You may want to delete this bug report now or whatever :).

That's the reason why we need testcases instead of screenshots
