It can be seen here:

it works fine in:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1a2) Gecko/20060518 BonEcho/2.0a2

it appears wrong in:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20060517 Minefield/3.0a1

if that helps. let me know what I can do to help track down this issue

I see it only in IE. Tried several Firefox builds but I see only a red border.

Yes, I tried all three; branch, trunk and the latest release on WinXP.
With one of the builds I saw also something blue on the bottom of the window, like it was displayed nearly outside the viewport, but could not repeat it.

Marking depends on since i'm not sure. Re-check when that bug is fixed.

The problem seems to be related to position:absolute

Sorry, the test yesterday was wrong; I had forgotten to remove the flash-blocking .css that I tested one day earlier. Weird BTW that the same flash-blocking code did not block the flash when it was outside the border..

I found a regression range: 1.9a1_2006040314 - 1.9a1_2006040323.

Bug 332136 or Bug 332285 ?

[Martijn Wargers (dead)]

Those bugs can't be the cause of this. I think this is basically bug 325465.
