This page seem pretty wide in mozilla.. Style doesn't show up properly in mozilla.
Assignee: peterl → vidur
This page currently stalls on load right after reading http://www,microsoft.com/dns/dns.js (eats 100% of cpu). Don't know if it's a script issue or network...
Assignee: vidur → peterl
It's neither. The scripts load in and run to completion. The stall seems to happen in table layout. This is a layout/style issue, not a script one.

Component: Style System → HTMLTables
Ok, the stall is better now (it used to just sitr and spin), the cause of the remaining stall is covered under another bug. The layout looks like a table layout problem. The table layout code also blows up during incremental reflow caused by waving the mouse over the links near the top of the page. The style system is triggering a large number of reflows due to the table layout code requesting "unique" style contexts and resetting width information in the contexts during layout (so the style code see different contexts after a re-resolve and triggers reflows on the columns). I think we really need to talk about not using unique style contexts for table columns anymore. The relevant layout information could/should be moved into the frames themselves.

Resolution: --- → DUPLICATE
[TESTCASE] The problem is that some of the cells are given widths of 100%, and so Mozilla makes the table wider than the viewport. Bug 5797 is dealing with the wider-than-viewport tables issue. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 5797 ***
