Sorry but I cannot reproduce this, do you have any further information, like which part of the page you are seeing problems with? Do you have a screenshot or a copy of the offending code?

I tried the latest beta of Firefox 3.5 and it works fine. It only seems to happen on Firefox 3.0.x. I will try to produce a screenshot later.

Did you try safe mode (comment 2)?  No one else can reproduce this - are you sure it's not an add-on that you have installed?
