3.



Expected Results:  
Loaded the NavBar in the proper place on the website.

I know this isn't any sort of priority but wasn't sure if it was indicative of something larger that needed to be fixed. Thanks for creating and continually improving such a terrific browser.

Does this also happen in FF 1.5 RC 3?

So, this is because the menu div is position:absolute and we block the Flash banner, which moves the rest of the page up. 

I'm not sure which rule is catching this banner, and perhaps it's something we shouldn't be blocking; dunno.

The flash url contains:
goto=http://adsatt.espn.go.com/ad/sponsors/

I think this is a wontfix. If the page is stupid enough to rely on the ad placement for its layout, too bad.
