WFM, Build 2002101612, Linux x86
Jose, Christl: If you load the page in Moz 1.0 or in 1.1 or in IE4+ then the scrolling text looks as stable as in Moz 1.2beta? Thanks.

WFM with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021023 I don't see any noticable difference between IE6 and Mozilla 1.2b
I see the same flickering in Phoenix 0.4 as in Mozilla 1.2b . Must be some interaction between my system (550MHz PIII + 256M mem) and some recent changes to the Mozilla code.

With build 2002112304 I know see the flicker. A reduce testcase would be good to have.
Flickers also under Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130. Will try to prepare a reduced case.

This bug is weird, now I dont see the flicker anymore. Build 2002120408, Windows 2000.
I posted a reduced case on the site. Start flickering when the 15th character or so is painted. Flickers with Phoenix 0.4 and Mozilla 1.2.1 . IE 5 SP2 shows it OK - no flicker. Tested under Win NT SP6a. The code is as follows: <html> <head> <title>Mozilla Test</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <script LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.2"> var timerId = "" var doc ="" function startTicker() { doc = document.getElementById("viewBG") Ticker() } //function to dynamically write text to a layer function Ticker() { objHtml = doc.innerHTML var len=objHtml.length if (len>0) if((len%24)==0) doc.innerHTML = objHtml+"A<br>" else doc.innerHTML = objHtml+"A" else doc.innerHTML = objHtml+"A" if (objHtml.length < 100) timerId= setTimeout ("Ticker()",100) } </script> </head> <body id="body" bgcolor="#000000" text="#000000" onload="startTicker()"> <div id="viewBG" style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: lightgrey; HEIGHT: 100px; LEFT: 156px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 140px; VISIBILITY: visible; WIDTH: 470px; layer-background-color: lightgrey;border: 1px none #000000" ></div> </body> </html>

I don't use nightlies or alphas. I will check with Phoenix 0.6 release due in January or with Moz 1.3b

Posted the test case on a new server, changed URL to http://www.padsutilities.com/MozTest/moztest.html Still flickers with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624 I use 550MHz PIII machine (256MB Mem) - does this have anything to do with the DHTML performance? IE5.5 on this platform shows no flicker.

With Gecko/20031104 Firebird/0.7+, Windows XP I still see the flicker. Only sometimes though. Could this be a dupe of bug 170702? reopening.

Since this is not WFM, and there is a bug for it, lets then dupe it to it. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 170702 ***
