Overview Description: Form is disappearing and then reappearing.

Steps to Reproduce:
1) restart Mozilla and goto URL
2) scroll to bottom of the page and notice the yellow table
3) click on the reload button and scroll back down
4) notice that a textfield is now there, where it wasn't there before

Actual Results: The textfield is disappearing when the page is first loaded, but
appears after the page reloads.

Expected Results: The form should be there from the beginning.

Build Date & Platform Bug Found: build 1999-1112-08 on Windows NT 4.0 (sp6)

Additional Builds and Platforms Tested On: none

Additional Information: viewing the source from mozilla will show that form is
there...it's just not being drawn.

incremental reflow of tables is destroying the form controls and then readding
them - reassigning to Chris

I don't think this bug was an incremental reflow bug.
[e-mail] : can you remember if the page finished loading
before you scrolled down?

I want to reopen this bug, but it appears to be fixed anyways... So I'll leave
it to the contact people.

As far as I remember, the page loaded before there was enough time to scroll
down.

I'm on vacation until 1/12 so if you have anymore questions, then allow me
around week to respond.
