Is this a serious bug? I have no clue what it's about.

I'm going to resolve this as "INVALID" if we don't hear from the reporter soon.

Notice the pop up window on the bottom left of the screen. It shows up when I clicked on the "Announcement" link on the right of the screen. (i uploaded the html document that causes this error too for you to try it out)

Sorry about the original post. testing this bug out caused the following additional problem (which submitted the report before it was completed):

If you keep that notification window open (see image attachement), and try to type into a form element in another Camino window, it inserts the text backwards...wierdest thing I've seen.

For example, if I typed "Hello World", it would come out as "dlroW olleH"
