Can you please be more specific, with the URL, a detailed description of what is missing and/or screenshots?

It looks identical to me in 1.6.2pre, Firefox 2.0.0.15, and Safari 1.3.2.

Unless you downloaded a new build of Camino on 26 June, it's awfully hard to imagine how this could be anything related to Camino.

It's much more likely that this is something Yahoo changed for non-[Firefox|Safari|IE] browsers. You should try Seamonkey to see if it has the same problem, in addition to answering Smokey's question in comment 1.

To Smoky: The url I use to access my Yahoo home page is http://cm.my.yahoo.com/ I attached a screen shot of the missing section to a separate email addressed to you. Everything below the missing section is correct. I also use Safari 3.1.1 and Firefox 3.0 and have no problems with those browsers. As I mentioned, all was fine with the Camino browser until yesterday.

To Chris: I have not downloaded a new build of Camino since a while before I downloaded version 1.6.1. I downloaded Seamonkey and my Yahoo home page, like with Safari and Firefox, is fully visible.

Smokey, can you post Jef's screenshot here so we know what's going on?

I guess if you wait long enough things will fix themselves or at least the new Camino version (1.6.3) will.

Is/was that a case where the header of myYahoo was blocked by the ad-blocker ?
More specifically, div[id="masthead-wrap"] was caught by the ad-blocking.css in Camino 1.6.1 and older. That should (indeed) work correctly in Camino 1.6.3.
