267265 - Flash Ads are OVER the text.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 254910

(Core :: Layout, defect)

Description

[Carlos S]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; es-ES; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041027 Firefox/1.0RC1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; es-ES; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041027 Firefox/1.0RC1

Flash Ads are OVER the text. If you hit RELOAD, sometimes the page becomes
readable, sometimes don't.
Another thing. If you right-click over a link and select 'Open in new tab', the
recently opened new tab doesn't have the address in the location bar, so, if the
page fails to load, yo cannot hit reload to try again, because there's no
address in the location bar.
In Firefox PreRelease, it used to work, but in 1.0 RC1 don't.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to www.clarin.com and see it.
2. for the 2nd problem, right click over any link, select 'Open in new tab' and
INMEDIATELLY hit stop to simulate a page load fault. The location bar doesn't
have the address, so, you can't hit the reload button to try again.
3.



Expected Results:  
1) The text becomes readable, without flash ads over it.
2) Get in the location bar, the address of the page I trying to load.

I see the problem with the flash ad too, using "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC
Mac OS X Mach-O; de-DE; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041027 Firefox/1.0RC1"
-> moving to better component

For the second problem you should file a seperate bug, as this is a completely
different issue. Maybe a bug already exists, search for it first please.

Martin, Carlos, is this a problem on trunk?  Or just on 1.7 branch?
