To replicate, go to above URL, enter a stock quote such as NSCP in the field on
the upper left and click on the button underneath. The sidebar is taken over the
the website it loads
Using the 1999061509 build. I'am able to reproduce this. The sidebar disapears
for me completly. then when loading the new page there is an animated gif ad on
it, and the page 'bounces' back and forth from left to right several times while
loading. When it stops the back button would not work and I got the following
crash:

APPRUNNER caused an invalid page fault in
module JSDOM.DLL at 0177:00d36195.

Summary: webpage takes over the sidebar → http://www.fool.com takes over the sidebar

Here is the html source of the form in question:

    <FORM ACTION="http://quote.fool.com/simple.asp" TARGET=_parent>
    <INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="fh" VALUE="1">
    <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Symbols" SIZE="10" MAXLENGTH="180">
    <CENTER><INPUT TYPE=image
src="http://a100.g.akamaitech.net/7/100/70/0001/www.fool.com/art/leftnav/getinfo
.gif" width=100 height=21 border=0 NAME=submit></CENTER></DIV>
    <BR></FORM>

The reason this form submission takes over the sidebar is because the form
targets the parent.

In order to fix this, the content frame needs to be sandboxed. It does have
'type="content"' maybe sandboxing broke.

Reassigning to hyatt.
