FreeBSD 4.1 XFree86 3.3.6 Mozilla 20010212xx Not checked on any other OS yet. When I scroll up and down with the arrow keys on this URL (and others), I see the layout shift left and right 1 line at certain positions on the screen (see attachment). Needless to say, this looks really bad when it's in the middle of a line of characters. Also note the vertical blue bar on the right - it appears and disappears, and almost certainly related or the cause. The blue bar is #000066, the body bgcolor. It appears to be this column entry: <td width="10" bgcolor="#ffffff"><img src="/graphics/t.gif" width="10" height="200"></td> but it's hard to read the html. Note that #000066 only appears in the <body> tag; nowhere else on the page. t.gif is (of course) a 1x1 transparent gif.
Updated incorrect URL ns4.7 does not show a vertical bar there, so probably the fact that it shows up at all is a layout bug.
I cannot get this defect to show itself in the current build, but I do not have FreeBSD at my disposal. Also, comparing the attached GIF, it looks like the content has changed (probably changes daily). I know Chris made some changes that fixed some sub-pixel alignment problems in tables, so maybe that is the reason? Not sure, but marking WORKSFORME. Randell, if you are still seeing this, please reopen. Thanks!
