1) if you scroll down using the arrows, the space-bar or the scroll-bar the
news-ticker stays on the same spot on the screen
2) if you have scrolled down and then use the arrows to scroll back and
forwards, you get multiple instances of the ticker containing static content of
older instances
3) if you switch to another tab, the bbc news ticker is brought with you
including its behaviour according to 1) & 2)

The ticker is Java. Works for me in Linux, 1.3b 2003021408, Java Plug-in 1.4.0-b92.

broken for me as well, mac os x 10.2.3 (java 1.3 whatever), mozilla 1.3.  both
on the same tab and shows through to other tabs.  why isn't this assigned to
someone with an actual email address?

seems to be mac specific, works for me on win2k, phoenix 0.5.
