I get only the first page and old messages. The refresh doesn't work :( Thanks for fixing it
reporter: provide a URL where this is happening please.
Sorry, know only german chats. Just enter nick and passwords. http://www.chat-dome.de/chat/flirt/ or http://chat.de/PCH/PCHC/pchc.htm
Linux, build ID 2000070908 Windows 95, build ID 2000070908 I suspect this is XP. What seems to happen is that the connection is never closed, and content is appended as people speak. Netscape 4.73 and IE5.01 render these immediately, but Mozilla only renders new content for a couple of seconds, and then waits for the connection to close before rendering the rest. A site where you can see this happen without needing to have an account (though you can freely create them at those chat sites if you want to test those) is http://grc.com/. You'll need PSM installed though. Click the "Shields UP!" on that page, then click the "Probe My Ports!" button on the next page. In Netscape and IE, as each new port probed is added, it is rendered. In Moz, it renders a few, then stops updating the page till it's all done. Is this layout? Confirming this bug.

Ever confirmed: true
Behavior repeated on Win32 070908 Nightly. Marking as XP.

updating summary, Could be netlib buffering the data or layout not reflowing often enough, can someone figure out the proper component please. hitting stop will force the content to show. but it also closes the stream, which stops it from receiving further updates to the page.

this shouldn't be a problem anymore since we dispatch packets (via onDataAvailable) as they are read off the socket. this could be more of an issue with layout if content is not being rendered frequently enough.
Severity: normal → minor
i don't believe this is a problem anymore.. marking WORKSFORME.

reporter: This bug is a "futured" or "untargeted" bug which has been "resolved/works for me". Most bugs meeting this criteria are usually somewhat out of date or working in the current builds. If this bug is not happening for you in a recent build (such as the Mozilla daily build, Mozilla 0.9.3, or Netscape 6.1), please use the friendly "Mark bugs as VERIFIED" radio button to set this bug to "VERIFIED/WORKS FOR ME" If you reported the bug on a platform (e.g. Linux) and other contributors reported on another platform (e.g. Mac OS), please comment that it works for you but do not verify it yet. For these multi-platform bug reports, we need to verify all reported platforms -OR- create new "still broken on platform X" bugs when you verify.
