Details

Using the 11.23.98a builds of Viewer & XPViewer on Win98 and NT, a substantial number of layout problems take place when displaying the http://www.greatsports.com site. * Several letters of the "New section! SPEAK OUT Forum" text appears to be repeated as background noise, to the right of the two animated banner ads that appear during the page. (ditto for the animated 'World 1000' bitmap in the lower-right hand corner of the page.) * There is a substantial amount of display junk on the right-hand side of the page, in particular, a vertical strike of display junk to the immediate left of the vertical scroll bar (and of roughly its width, too.) Sometimes the vertical stripe is just visual garbage that appears to be derived from the other page elements, sometimes it's a pure white stripe, and sometimes I've seen it as pure black. (If you don't see it immediately upon opening the page, just resize it a bit. ;)

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 1563 ***
Given the variety of screen gunk noted in this bug report, I'm going to refrain from verifying this as a duplicate until after 1563 is verified fixed.
[1563 still not fixed, so I'm still holding this bug open in the interim.]
