JS on the make make my old PC veeerryyy sloooow, though no plugins are active,
as I don´t have flash installed in this mozilla. No extensions used.
Celeron 333, Win98, 96 MB RAM, no disk swapping heard, action seems to be in RAM
only.
Mozilla wasn´t hanging, only very very slow. Took long time to open
Edit->Preferences->Advanced->scripts&Plugins to disable JS.
After disabling JS, Mozilla had normal speed, instantly reacting on keypress or
mouseclick.

Message from validator:
 Sorry, I am unable to validate this document because on line 237  it contained
one or more bytes that I cannot interpret as gb2312 (in other words, the bytes
found are not valid values in the specified Character Encoding). Please check
both the content of the file and the character encoding indication.

I can´t check, as I don´t have GB2312 installed, and therefore see
questionsmarks for every valid GB2312 encoded char, as for invalid chars.
I don't see any overlapping text on that page. Where is the overlap, exactly?

Still seen overlapping text on that page.
I use WINXP sp2 Trad. Professional with Firefox 1.0.

What Language OS/Browser version you are using?
Linux, 1.8a6.  Firefox 1.0 is using a 9-month-old layout engine, so if you could
test with a recent trunk build, that would be much appreciated.
No overlapping text as follow Environment :
- use WINXP sp2 Trad. Professional with Mozilla 1.8a6
- use Novell SUSE 9.1 Eng. Professional with Mozilla 1.8a6
But the content in "display box" is missing  (that cause no overlap)

Ah, I see.  The site uses overflow-x and overflow-y, which are not implemented
in Firefox 1.0 and have been on trunk since the checkin for bug 72747 in September.

The lack of content is due to the site using a width of 0 on the item that has
overflow-x and overflow-y set.  Per spec, the visible value is turned into
"auto" in this case, so we'd show scrollbars, but there is nowhere to put them.
