I ran into this bug again and made a few more observations. Was using Firefox 2.0.0.11 on Ubuntu 7.10 to view
http://www.domainbyproxy.com/ First tab displaying this bug was grey. Opened a few tabs to browse other sites and they were fine. Afterwards, directed browser to the problematic URL on a new tab. The bug displayed there also, except the page was white instead of grey. All subsequent tabs with bug displayed white. Refreshing, retyping the URL, etc all resulted in the same symptoms - the document is retrieved as evidenced by the title bar but the page is not displayed and no context menu appears when right-clicking within the tab. http://www.domainbyproxy.com/index.html gives me a 404 page but the bug is still there. "View"->"View Source" opens source window but does not show any content initially. Maximizing, restoring, or resizing the browser/source window will cause page/source to render. This remedy works only if the tab is in focus. Changing size of parent window while another tab is in focus does not render the page on the tab with bug. Once the page is rendered correctly on a tab, I wasn't able to recreate the bug on the same tab. Bug continues to occur on new tabs, though. After some time, the bug could not be produced again. Dunno what's special about the website that could cause this problem. The domain name? DOCTYPE declaration? Character encoding? Maybe the problem lies with a component involved in rendering to display area which is shared by both page and source view windows. Could it be the proprietary ATI driver I'm using? But in that case can't think why the bug applies just to certain sites and doesn't happen all the time. -Paul On Jan 21, 2008 11:19 AM, Tom Anthony <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Closing all my instances of FF and reopening it seems to have made the > problem go away. > > -- > firefox does not render some pages some of the time > https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173190 > You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber > of the bug. > -- http://wagonfly.blogspot.com/ http://empraptor.homeip.net/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- firefox does not render some pages some of the time https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173190 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
