Now this text is definetly NOT a link, but the text changes though. I think it is because there is actually an anchor tag, but without the href atribute, there is just a name atribute fo navigate on a HTML page. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Do nothing, download Mozilla, and proceed to http://ds.ccc.de/index 2. 3. Actual Results: you'll see the mess! Expected Results: nothing at all! this is normal text, it should be displayed as normal text! Mozilla should only render anchor tags as Links, when then href attribute is given.
It is same with bug 190780 -- this page sending as text/html, and this file parsed as HTML, so anchor <a name="top"/> not closing (read comment #6 of bug 190780 for more information)-- and you see hover result of this unclosed <a> tag. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 190780 ***
