Pages on IGN.com stop loading in the middle for the trunk build of FF. It makes hard to read the article text. IE7 is fine.

How about with a release build of Firefox? Is there a reason to think this is a TE bug, and not simply a problem with Firefox trunk at the moment?

By the way, the example URL works fine for me in Camino trunk, which further suggests this might not be a TE issue.

wfm bonecho/minefield winxp/linux. Yeah, only file te bugs on the trunk if you are sure it is new behavior on the trunk that will need to be evangelized. Otherwise file them on the appropriate product.

Today I opened the same page with a different PC with Firefox 2 and got the same
result, looks like a tech evangelism issue to me. My PC with today's trunk build of FF with a different profile suffers from it too. IE7 works fine for this web site on both PCs, so it's not a network problem.

In Firefox, the white background for the article text and the right menu, and the advertisement bar in the left are not loaded.
