From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.72 (Macintosh; U; PPC)
BuildID: 2000041608
Mozilla loads this page fine. Afterwards, though, the program can't use its
internal drawing engine. The menus are messed up (see bug #36030), but more
importantly, all the browser windows are completely white. (Including "Open Web
Location" and other dialogue boxes.)
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Visit URL.
2. Create new window.

I can't duplicate this on Linux. Site and menus appear to work normally.
Platform specific?

must be mac specific. I can't reproduce with 041708 build under NT. Will try
to investigate further soon.

I've just reduplicated this bug with the M16, 04/07/12 build. After the URL
resolves, mozilla simply quits wanting to create new windows. Bug #36030 is
still present, also. I'm pretty sure the two are related somehow.
My os is 8.6 (Mac). I dropped the URL into mozilla directly after I unstuffed
it, not messing about with any preferences at all.

I also tested it with (04/17/04) M15 and found the same problem. I'm
using school computers to test this. This bug has appeared on three identically
configured machines (8.6, b&w g3's) (under M16 builds).
Is my system config a factor?

Win95B, Build 2000041717: I've gotten inconsistent behaviour when I visited this
site, but not the original bug behaviour. Opening a new window, for me, takes
me to an about:blank page, which is what I intended my preferences to do.

Hmm, once the center panel loads, Mozilla takes most of the CPU, apparently for
nothing more than animating the 3-D wireframe X-in-Circle logo at the left --
but only when it is not hidden by other windows. This is using the
2000-04-17-08-M16 nightly binary.
skoonce@usc.edu, if you put another window on top of the Mozilla window
displaying the movie site, and then bring that Mozilla window to the foreground
again, does the content area repaint, or does it seem "transparent"?
And does Mozilla take most of the CPU?

I just took some screenshots via <command-shift-3> (which dumps the vram cache to
a file), and a few things have been revealed. First, my blank windows
(completely white) are apparently trying to show the mozilla page, albiet
improperly.
Sidr: If i create a new window and then click on the old one, the the top and
bottom parts of the site are still black. The rotating circle dohicky does show
up, happily animating away, yet the rest of the area about it is grey-ish.
(transparent?)
From running rc5 (the macos has no cpu indicator <sigh>) it appears mozilla is
only ganking about 10% of the cpu. (Not much at all, esp. for a mac foreground
app.)
When I clicked to the rc5 application, which had part of its window over the
mozilla app and back into mozilla, mozilla redrew the portion of the screen which
had been covered up by rc5. The mouse is blinking every second *no matter where*
i put it, which means mozilla is attempting to force a redraw for the entire
screen every time the animation updates.

This works for me.. but I did get a Javascript error. If this comes back I
think it has something to to with a plugin, or JavaScript.
