87393 - DHTML layer does not display until screen refreshed

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Layout, defect)

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.1) Gecko/20010607
BuildID:    2001060703 and all previous

THis page (http://www.cereberus.com/frameset1.html) contains a layer that is
generated via CSS. The background layer has a graphic that is fixed in the
lower-left corner, and another layer which contains the page content in front.
However, the graphic on the bottom layer does not display unless you "wipe over
it" with another window (such as an Explorer window, the mail window, etc). If
you "wipe" over part of it, only that part is visible. I have seen this happen
on three different computers, all of which have different video chipsets, so it
is not a display adapter problem.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Simply go to www.cereberus.com and wait for the page to auto-load.
2. Look in the bottom-left corner. You *should* see an image with the
"Cereberus" logo, but you probably will not.
3. Move any other application or explorer window over the browser window, or
re-load the page, or minimize then restore the browser window. The graphic
should then be visible.

Expected Results:  Graphic should be visible upon initial load.

I had to reload the page for the background image to be displayed. The image is
being applied to the body element via css:

background-image: url(images/background2.jpg); background-attachment: fixed;
background-position: 0% 100%; background-repeat: no-repeat;

This bug has been FIXED in the 0.9.5 release-- whatever fixed it may have fixed 
other CSS/layer/DHTML bugs as well, you may wish to go through and check any
