Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

When clicking on http://blt.speakeasy.net/ the JavaScript window gets painted in
the upperleft of the screen rather than left-center.  A 'RELOAD' corrects the
problem.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://blt.speakeasy.net/
2. Notice the 'Press start button!' is in the upper left
3. Press RELOAD and the screen repaints and the problem goes away.
Actual Results:  
The JavaScript is placed in the wrong location on the screen:  upperleft.

Expected Results:  
The JavaScript portion should be drawn middle of the left.

I'll attach some .gif's illustrating the problem.

Attachment: This example shows the page before the RELOAD

Comment 2

Attachment: This shows how the screen should initially appear (and after the RELOAD).

This shows how the screen should initially appear (and after the RELOAD).

Oh, I see my screen capture tool placed a 'screen ****' on the image .. ignore
the 45 degree lines over the 'Press start button!' area ... you should get the
idea of how the screen ought to appear.

Although the original bug is fixed, the browser quickly flashes the window in
the upper left then paints it correctly.  Would you like me to open a separate
bug for this issue?

I just noticed that if I move the mouse cursor over the 'Press start button!'
text before the windows flashes and keep it there until it does. The window will
move to the upper left corner and stay there. The effect is the same as on the
first attached image.

The "Javascript Window" from the original summary isn´t a Javascript window, but
a Java applet:

<applet codebase="" code="speed.class" width=300 height=150>
  <param name="showlogo" value="1">
  <param name="speedlimit" value="0">
  <param name="uploadurl" value="http://66.92.159.2/upload.cgi">
  <param name="downloadurl" value="http://66.92.159.2/">
</applet>

I loaded the page in a new tab, loading in the background,switched to that tab,
saw an applet loading (rotating sun), switched to another tab, and when I
switched back to the page to test, the applet region was containing the applet
and some text from the page I came from. A bit of scrolling or hovering redraw
the applet so that no text from the other page was seen. I couldn´t reproduce,
as the applet is cached in the Java cache, I´ve got to clear that first, it´s
not in the  Mozilla cache, but in a Sun Java cache somewhere.
