Hithere;

For a while now I've noticed some odd behaviour in Mozilla when 
dealing with large (often) text-only documents, such as 
http://www.ibiblio.org/javafaq/javafaq.html

As I move down the page (doing the page-down-click or drag on the 
scrollbar) the text begins "overlapping" with itself.  It appears that
the previous text isn't erased before the text from lower down is 
added on top.  It just continues to build and build until it's a nice 
black and blue mess.  The version I'm currently using is the 0.9.3 
(though I'm uncertain as to the all-zero build number!), but this has 
occurred with earlier versions of Mozilla as well.

The odd thing is that if I move beyond a certain point (approximately 
27 "pages" down) then Mozilla will display the rest of the text 
properly, until I move back up into the previous "zone".

(I've uploaded images of the trouble to 
http://www.anecho.mb.ca/~jeffnik/moz/ )

Resizing Mozilla at any time seems to refresh the view properly 
(though it will continue to be cranky after that).

This looks somewhat similar to bug #83812 though a bit more severe.

Another symptom that seems to happen on the same pages is that any 
window (or even Mozilla's own menus) will not refresh properly the 
areas of text that were previously hidden.

If this isn't a reproduction of the bug, I can submit it to Bugzilla.

Jeff
