Scrolling just a little way down, on the left colum the defendingthefox link
overwrites the main centre column text body. Viewed in IE it is fine. This is
a commmon complaint & related to how FF handles tables etc, but this is
happening everytime on my, and other computers using FF. Past excuses for FF
not displaying links, text, columns, or tables correctly has been the website,
and its bad coding. This happens on many well coded websites, and this on the
spreadfirefox homepage shows clearly there is a problem running a little deeper
than that here, and it is AT LEAST far to easy for a page not to display as it
should in FF. If it is not happening to EVERY FF 1.0 user, then it narrows down
the problem perhaps, but does not mean the problem does not exist. It does on
many win 2k & XP so far here for this site, & all versions of FF. There's
clearly a problem here, not just on badly coded sites, but well coded ones, or
theres reasons why FF is so prone to this amatuer looking display problem. It's
happening on the spreadfirefox homepage, that is embarrasing & needs sorting,
sorry, but it does.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.navigate to www.spreadfirefox.com
2.scroll a little way down
3.look on the left column, defendingthefox link overwrites onto the centre main
body text
Expected Results:
Displayed the link not overwriting over text, as with IE.

WFM 20041115 trunk PC/Win2000. Something probably fixed in trunk that will turn
up in FF 1.1 when it goes back to trunk.
This has absolutely nothing to do with build config.

Can you please whilst your at least stating that, advise where this should be
then please. I browsed the categories and this seemed the most likely but us
average users cannot be 100% with these terminologies. If you read my the below
in full you'll notice I have tried this on XP machines also, XP Home &
Professional give the same result 9/10, so yes it has worked, but it generally
doesnt, so something is conflicting here. So please advise where this should go.
