269977 - opening slashdot articles in background tabs corrupts page until shift-refresh

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 217527

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Matthew Lenz]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041111 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041111 Firefox/1.0

When viewing slashdot (with the last few releases of Firefox) if I middle click
and open an article in a tab (my preferences open them in the back ground) the
page is corrupted (I'm attaching a screenshot) until I hit shift-reload
(attaching a screenshot).  Sometimes I cannot get it to right itself even with a
shift-reload.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Go slashdot
2.  middle click on a few articles and have them load in the background
Actual Results:  
page(s) is(are) corrupt.

Expected Results:  
load the pages normally

Is it possible this is some kind of CSS clash from another site i've got in
another tab at the same time?
