I noticed on the Macromedia site that their toolbar navigation, which seems to be built on Flash and set into a frame, doesn't render when the page loads. Reloading the page causes the Flash stuff to go away again. Moving the mouse over the are seems to bring some of the elements back, but not all of them. If the page loads into a tab and you switch to another tab and then back, the Flash elements look fine.

I have noticed this problem with certain pages at macromedia's site. Working on reduced test case from url.
Attached file Reduced test case
Test case includes embed element with height /width attributes nested in a table element. Load page and move cursor over table. Notice portions of flash object appears.

Updating summary since flash object isn't located in a frame but a table.

WorksForMe using Chimera/2002080605.
Whoops, this time it's confirmed using Chimera/2002080605. Wonder why. Maybe it was cached, and this time it wasn't?

Similar problem appears at espn.com. The ESPN logo, which I believe is displayed as a flash movie, loads for a minute, then disappears. Some menu items reappear if the cursor passes over them; the ESPN logo itself only reappears if you scroll the page, at which point it looks fine. Weird. I also just checked this in Mozilla (1.1b, 2002090413) and it works as expected

I get the same problem on other sites with flash, I'm on 2002102404. It redraws everything that has to change, static elements go invisible. But for me it usually works on first load, it is just if I leave that window, and then come back that problems occur.
