After visiting a certain page written in मराठी, on attempting to search for a string, it appears that the rendered page FF has turned black.

On scrolling up, it seems that only a partial portion of the page has turned black.

I haven't run into any other side effects. FF appears to function normally otherwise. I can open tabs, visit other sites, etc.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Here is how I reproduce it consistently :


0> Disable all extentions & plugins

1> Start FF

2> Navigate to http://www.khapre.org/blog/marathi/labels/4KSu4KWAIOCkruCksOCkvuCkoOClgA==.aspx

3> Hit Ctrl-F 

4> Type the string "bi" without quotes.

5> Observe rendering bug


--------

In case the website changes in the future, I have saved an offline version.

Actual Results:  
A large portion of the rendered page turns black.

Expected Results:  
The rendered page should have remained as-is and the scrollbar should have been positioned at the point of the first occurrence of the string.

This might be relevant.

FWIW, I cannot reproduce this in latest Chrome, IE8 and Opera.
Works for me - Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2b5) Gecko/20091204 Firefox/3.6b5

FF didn't crash, so the dump probably isnt of any use, but JIC.

I can indeed reproduce a black part of the page, but not anymore with Firefox 3.6 and trunk.
In two cases however (bigger, biggest) I miss the green highlight. 
This part of the page can't be selected at all.
IE8, Opera and Google Chrome mark the found text. Only with Opera I can also select the text.
So only the black is gone but there are still two problems (found text not marked and impossibility to select).

Van Houtte,
Do you still see this issue when using a current version?
