Linux build 2000022308

Header images are repeated several times, the words foo.bar() appears all over
it, all the text is all over the place. In other words, a complete mess :-(
Apologies, I think the 'foo.bar();' I was seeing was a quip...somebody has a
sense of humour :-).

The rest of the page is still messed up though.
This doesn't happen for me on Linux build 2000.02.25.08.  When it happens, can
you look at the source to find out whether it's a layout problem or whether
bugzilla feeds screwed-up information?
The problem seems to only occur if I try to load the Bugzilla page before a
previous page has finished loading, e.g. start loading Slashdot, before Slashdot
finishes loading click on 'Bookmarks', click on the Bugzilla page. If I let
Slashdot load completely first then the Bugzilla page is rendered perfectly.
This is still happening in the M14 Seamonkey release. If anything it seems
worse; not only is the page being drawn wrongly, Mozilla also froze completely
on me whilst loading the page. I've tried viewing the source but that also broke
Mozilla on both releases.
Check if this has been fixed in the latest nightly builds. If so, this is
probably a duplicate of bug 24033.

Still present in 2000030316.

Still present in 2000030316. It might be something to do with cookies though.
The times when it doesn't work
I see 'set cookie=...' displayed in the browser. Also, what I said before about
if you load Slashdot completely it works, is not true. I see this even if the
previous page has loaded completely. If you can't reproduce this, try going
backwards and forwards through history. Oh, and going into 'view source' just
crashed mozilla.

The same problem with bug list pages on Linux has been noted in bug 30613, 
"sometimes bugzilla query results pages not displayed correctly (bug list)".

gabriel@pixle.demon.co.uk, the fix for bug 24033 should have appeared by
2000-03-04... could you try this again whith a current build? The 
'set cookie=...' detail you gave in your last post strongly suggests that
this is the same bug.
