304547 - Page partially displayed when Javascript is enabled

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Vincent Lefevre]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux ppc; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050730 Firefox/1.0.6 (Debian package 1.0.6-2)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux ppc; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050730 Firefox/1.0.6 (Debian package 1.0.6-2)

The above URL is partially displayed when Javascript is enabled: I just get the
top part (title + navigation bar), and Firefox displays "Connecting to
a.tribalfusion.com..." in the status bar. If I click on Stop and look at the
source (from Firefox), I can see that the page has been loaded entirely.

Lynx has no problem with this page. So, I tried with Firefox after disabling
Javascript, and it worked; only the advert from tribalfusion.com wasn't
displayed (replaced by a "Click Here" box).

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the above URL (with Javascript enabled).
Actual Results:  
Only the top part is displayed (though the page has been loaded entirely).

Expected Results:  
The page should have been displayed entirely.

I beleive I have a similar problem. I want to say that it is a gecko-based browser problem, but the page displays just fine in SeaMonkey (and IE and Opera). I do not think it is a Javascript problem, though I cannot really put a finger on what seems to be wrong (maybe its DOCTYPE and SGML/XML parsing issues ... or maybe nested tables isn't really a nice way to present content :D ?).

Reporter, do you still see this problem with the latest Firefox 2? If not, can you please close this bug as WORKSFORME. Thanks!

It now works, but the page has probably changed. However I don't think I've noticed such a problem since a long time.
