problems rendering animated GIF on page. the problem image is: http://www.thefutonshop.com/tfs/donationgif.gif noticed this under linux with a 2001/09/26 build as well as under NS6.1
Attached image screen shot (deleted) —
Build 2001092803 on Win2K (SP2) running at 1280x1024x32 bits (large fonts): worksforme!
werks fer me too.. WinME, Resolution set at 1400x1050, and 32-bit color. Build 200128. Maybe this is just Linux specific? (thinking image libraries or something like that maybe?) Also, there are other bugs already reported that deal with improperly displaying animated GIFs. Please look around for a duplicate bug report, if there is one. (I will do a quick search myself)
still has problems w/ the 2001-10-01 linux build.
On 2001110803 win2Kpro-sp2 http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/data/LATEST/current_eit_304.gif Is an 18MB animated GIF and only cycles once while loading. Interestingly, Moz unly updates the fram while loading, Comm 4.x shows bands of data as it loads.
Blocks: 119597
Target Milestone: --- → Future
Both of the images display for me on win2k & Linux. The difference between 4.x & mozilla is that 4.x begins animation right away, mozilla waits to download the entire image before animating. The gif at http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/data/LATEST/current_eit_304.gif is ~39Meg and so takes me about 4-5min to download and once downloaded it animates fine. I need to look through the other image bugs but should we begin animating right away? is there (should there be) a preference.

Confirmed using Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030529 http://www.banskabystrica.sk/opportunities/index.htm and any link from the page. Only few gif's are animated, other aren't. The status changes sometimes with repeated visit of the page. The number of animated gif's increased -first time only one was animated, second it was 3. Maybe one day all will be animated ;o)
Uuu, next time I visited the site, only one was animated again :o(
Everything works fine with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030612
!To be more accurate, I ment, everything works fine on site www.banskabystrica.sk/opportunities with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030612 I'll try the new 14rc2 build under Linux and tell You the results.
Wow! It's OK now with Linux too! Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030617 Thank You!

Not good.. animation not working again under Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; sk-SK; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030617 http://www.banskabystrica.sk/opportunities/index.htm
I don't know, if it has any connection with the bug, but today I applied localisation pack for my version of Mozilla (1.4rc2). But The bug didn't appear suddenly, just after a few hours of using Mozilla. So I don't know, if it was just an accident that the bug disappeared before..
Don't know, what mechanism does the bug force to appear, but this time animations work fine again. Bug appears randomly.
I worked in Composer for some minutes and when I returned to Browser, animations stopped except 1. Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624
