Description Jos Vos 2000-09-09 14:29:11 UTC
The following site makes Netscape (4.75-0.6.2) behave pretty weird, the
site looks very bad and after visting the site returning to other sites
doesn't solve the problem (black screens), you have to restart it:

That site does look pretty awful, although I don't see any
aftereffects of visiting it here. Unfortunately, as the
problem viewing it seems to be in Netscape's html rendering
(and possibly the JVM), there isn't much we can do about it.

You can try reporting it at:
