1. Start Firefox 11b5 (does not contain Shockwave player)
2. Load http://www.miniclip.com/games/snowbowl/ro/

Actual result: Starting with F10, missing steps in the Shockwave notification (only the numbers corresponding to steps are displayed, but not the steps themselves).

Last good nightly: 2011-09-27
First bad nightly: 2011-09-28

The portion below the black bar with instructions in part of the webpage, not our UI.

This is the day we bumped to a two-digit version.  This is a problem with user-agent sniffing.  I confirmed by spoofing Fx 3.6 and the text appears.

The site appears to have changed; can't reproduce anymore.
