XPViewer on WinNT and Win95: The browser does not redraw the interior of the window when you open a once-minimized window. To reproduce: 1. Launch XPViewer.exe. 2. Confirm that the window is in a 'tiled' state, i.e. not maximized by pressing maximize button. 3. Minimize. 4. Un-minimize You would expect that the page was re-layed out but you'd be wrong. It acts like a transparent window (I know that's an oxymoron) because you can see the desktop through it.

this is because there is no document to draw because the URL is bad. the fix for this is for some other level of the app to detect the case of a bad url and create and empty document so that we at least paint the window white or something.

I'm unable to reproduce this. Perhaps you can verify and then close it out.
I just looked at this again and I don't think it's because of a bad url. I just reproduced it at majorleaguebaseball.com. The behavior is similar to what was noted before. In this case it only draws the MLB logo. I believe this problem has something to do with the way the browser handles frames - just a hunch but I just noticed I haven't seen this on a non-frames site.

This bug still exists. The 'main' frame doesn't show any text. Jevering is obviously not the right person for it, re-assigning to michaelp (guessing). Please reassign if you're not the right guy.
installing myself as QA Contact for sevaral bugs at once
Is this bug on Win32 only? also, this was reported against xpViewer which is no longer valid. claudius, please try all 3 platforms with Feb01 build and give us the scoop.
