Screenshot of garbage after Tree Status table

Another screenshot with more garbage

Details
Reproducability: Always Steps to reproduce: 1. Go to the Mozilla Tree Status page http://tinderbox.mozilla.org/showbuilds.cgi?tree=SeaMonkey 2. Click on any link. 3. Click the back button. Expected Results: The Tree Status page appears correctly again. Actual Results: The Tree Status page appears with garbage below the table (scroll down to the bottom of the page). I've noticed this problem with the last few nightly builds, including 2001061804, on Windows 2000. I also have this problem with some tables produced by a web app I wrote.
worksforme build 2001061804 win32 on win98 could you provide a screenshot?
This bug has suddenly become much harder to reproduce. I had to use Mozilla for about half an hour doing a variety of unrelated tasks before I could get garbage to appear again.
I've seen this today on tinderbox as well (and I think I've seen things like this for a while).

2001-06-26-21 linux x86 Consistently reproducible. I've seen this bug for about a month. I'm not seeing it on the tinderbox.mozilla.org link in the original bug report, but I'm seeing it on many other pages, including: http://www.userfriendly.org/static (at bottom of page, right after the yellow block) http://slashdot.org (bottom of page, black text on black background. Highlight that area to see the garbage). I'm sure that I could come up with many other examples too.
Might this have something to do with bug 79983? Jake
Please retest with some latest trunk builds. I think it's fixed now.
I still see the problem with trunk build 2001070304 on Windows 2000 SP2.
Still seeing the problem linux x86 2001-07-10-21
I'm seeing this on Linux and Mac with Mozilla 0.9.2 (Build-ID 2001062823). OS should be changed to All.
I really think this is a dup of bug 79983. It seems to be the cause of all kinds of problems like this. I'll leave it up to the reporter to dup this or not. Jake
I just installed the latest nightly on the Mac (ID 2001072308) and don't seem to be able to reproduce this anymore. Sorry about the spam.

I've noticed that it doesn't occur right away. You have to keep using the browser for a while before you'll see the problem again.
OK, I've seen it again with the new build (again on Mac). But it seems to happen much less frequently. Although, I can't really tell because I haven't found a way to reproduce this reliably. :-(
Marking this as a dup of bug 79983. That bug was fixed and should have fixed the symptoms described here as well. If anyone can still reproduce this, feel free to re-open it. Jake *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 79983 ***

I downloaded today's nightly for Mac (BuildID: 2001073004) and it happened to me again! This time it was on the Mozilla.org frontpage which didn't change between loads so this bug is very probably not a dupe of bug 79983. Please reopen. Unfortunately I don't know how to make a screenshot on Mac (I'm using this computer at school) so a description will have to do: at the very bottom of the page (even after the link for Document history), what shows up is an ODY>. The relevant page source is: Last modified July 30, 2001. <br> <a HREF="http://www.mozilla.org/webtools/bonsai/cvslog.cgi?file=mozilla-org//html/index.html&amp;rev=&amp;root=/cvsroot/">Document History</a>. </div> </td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> ODY> </html> This happens even if I open a new window and access that page. When I hit reload, everything turns back to normal.
Felix, Can you reproduce this with a new profile or after emptying your cache? I'd be more inclined to re-open this if you could reproduce the bug starting from a clean slate. Jake
2001-07-29-21 linux x86 Been running it for several days, and haven't seen the problem. Hooray!
