hey all,


I'm using Firefox 1.0 on a 12" PB and I've noticed that some webpages come in a little messed up. Specifically, some words or images are diced up by horizontal white lines, like somehow the pixels aren't being read correctly by Firefox. It usually happens to words and images that are close to the side of the content area, whereever that happens to be on the webpage.

Anyone notice this too?

Hi,

Yes, this happens on my ibook G3 700 mgz as well. Have you found out anything? I tried safari and IE and could not replicate the same thing. Maybe a graphics card incompatability btw firefox and the ibook??

Peace and Happy New Year!!
 
Yea, I have the same problem, also only in Firefox. Especially on MacRumors, like when scrolling downwards and reading the articles on the right-hand side of the page, they get all chopped up, and I have to scroll so they're off the screen and then back to see them properly. I haven't found a fix for it, this problem and the mis-drawn scrollbars caused me to switch back to Safari.
