This is a very odd bug in Firefox, which has been fixed in the
development version, but not in the current distribution version (1.0.4).
If you have a div with the property "overflow: auto" inside a floated
div, then when you resize the screen or cause Firefox to repaint the
screen the overflowed element will flicker for an instant out of place.
It seems that this only happens if the page is IN THE FIRST BROWSER TAB,
on second, third etc. tabs there is no problem.
I don't know if anyone knows a workaround for this problem.
The only workaround I know of (which sometimes does work, sometimes not)
is to absolutely position the overflowed element, or, if there is any
bug trigger like a navigation outside of the overflowed element, to
absolutely position that navigation/link. This is of course not always
possible, because normally the layout relies on the floating, and often
the designer does not want to change it.
In addition to the trigger you have mentioned, sometimes just text
zooming cntrl +/- does show the problem. The first tab problem is new to
me, nice catch.
You may have seen that the flickering content appears at a position
where the div/object would have been placed without any margin or
offset. That means, at the origin of its containing block. That's the
idea behind the a.p. workaround.
You might want to share the URL to your testcase, so we could try to
find more fixes.
