There are other sites too where this happens. I built Galeon from ports, and it shows exactly the same behaviour as firefox2/firefox3 for those sites. So does Epiphany (installed from the distribution media). I doubt whether firefox-3.5 could solve the problem. This seems to be a problem with a core library in X or one of the graphics libraries. -- Regards Manish Jain invalid.pointer@gmail.com +91-96500-10329 Laast year I kudn't spell Software Engineer.
