Description robert raux 2004-08-25 07:34:42 UTC 
When I attempt to open pages in a new tab in Firefox 0.9.3, one of the new tabbed pages renders over the current page I'm browsing. The tab title remains on the current page. I will attach photo's for clarification. This did not occur before browser upgrade. Note: Does not happen every time, but does occur regularly.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open one page in firefox 0.9.3.
2. CTRL+click a link, or right click and click "open link in new tab".

Actual Results:  
Page opened in new tab is rendered over the top of the current page. The tabbed
menu still shows the old page however.

Expected Results:  
The new page is opened in the tab, current page is unaffected.

I think this is fixed by recent mozilla-firefox (1.0-r2) and mozilla-launcher.  Please sync and update.
