Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 242466

Upon visiting http://ln.hixie.ch/?start=1070385285&count=1 and pressing Mouse3
to enable the "move mouse to move around in document" feature(there's a proper
name for it, just can't remember it), the site's CSS seems to override the
positioned image indicating said feature is enabled. (At least I think its the
CSS thats causing it)

A possible solution would be to either:

a) Make said circle part of the UI chrome, rather than a positioned image in the
document
b) Alter the !important; and stacking rules in the UA CSS. (provided its CSS
causing the problem)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://ln.hixie.ch/?start=1070385285&count=1
2. Press Mouse3
3. Marvel at the weirdness

Actual Results:  
"move mouse" image resizes and renders it usless

Expected Results:  
Kept the image the same size

So long as the IMG is in the DOM, the page will be able to screw with it. For
example, by removing it.
