(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[fourel]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3

Didn't think Netscape would be the place to complain about this, thinking they
are not programming to be IE specific.  When the "Whats New" tab located at the
center-top of the main window is opened and one of the topics selected it falls
behind the main ad located at the top right of the page.  This all worked fine
until about Wednesday, April 13.  I running 1.02 upgraded to 1.03 still the same
results.  Very annoying cause you cannot access the slider bar.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.log in to http://home.netscape.com
2."Whats new" tab should open or open it 
3.Select any news item in "Whats new" and try to read it

Actual Results:  
the hwat new popup ends up partially behind the ad

Expected Results:  
put the pop up on top

This bug is reproducible with Firefox 1.0.2 and Mozilla 1.7.7, but it only seems
to happen when the ad at the top right is a Flash ad. Maybe the same problem as
bug 111920?
