The example page has lots of <div> areas to create small boxes in different
colours. The background of the whole area should be alternating white and grey
rows. When first loading the page, the background rows isn't showing correctly,
and sometimes the <div>-boxes overlap each other and the text below. If the
window is resized, it is always redrawn correctly, but never the first time. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Load page
2.
3.



Expected Results:  
Page should be drawn correctly directly. 

This but is also seen in Firefox.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.

This was an old incremental layout bug, it was fixed by something between then and now.
