[Elliot Ramsay]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1

The images that reside in the top left of the page should not become invisible
when focus is set to the text field in the layer above. These images become
visible as soon as focus moves back to the url bar etc. (I have not found this
error in IE,Mozzilla 1.5, Safari etc)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Just load the url posted in this link assuming that this is not specific to
the OSX version of firefox.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
The graphic present below the layer that has a form in it disappears when the
focus is set to the form text field. The graphics reappear when focus is
manually set to any area outside the layer.

Expected Results:  
It should set the focus of the text feild without affecting the content below.

This bug is not apparent under the XP version of FireFox. So maybe it is a Mac specific bug.

Attachment: just a simple html page to illustrate the problem

Ithere are many changes that make the problem go away. If you remove the
background of the body. If you take out the padding of the bagContent. if you
put a background-color on the bagContent. I haven't managed to isolate a
particular thing.

In your signaturemodels page the blanked out area are the same size as the
combination (union) of the areas of both of the swf that are on the page.
Removing then makes the problem dissapear... This isn't really a solution and
I'm having the same problem with a plain html page.
