Animated GIF's are not handled correctly
A ghost of the previous frames are left behind

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.open any page with animated GIFS

Actual Results:  
The GIF's first frame displayed correctly but any frame afterwords was full of garbage left behind by other frames

Expected Results:  
it should have correctly displayed the animated GIF and there should be no garbage left behind from previous frames
I don't see any issue. Please try in a new profile. In the link you gave, there is some shadowing, but it looks like it is meant to be there, for some reason. I went to several other anigifs, and did not see that.
well I get it on any page I go on...there shouldn't actually be any shadowing on that page, due to the fact that they are all black and white...it might be a profile issue, so I'll test that

I can indeed reproduce the described behavior. It works fine with Firefox 2 but not with Firefox 3.0 and later.

so Bug 143046 seems a safe culprit to blame, so I'm sure mr Alfred Kayser can tell you more about it.

Confirmed from here. This will require some heavy debugging with the gif code...

How can this bug, a regression from 2007, be a duplicate of a bug that regressed last month?
Reopening until clarified. If you mean it will be fixed by the same patch then a "depends on" relation is better so it can be independently verified.

Whiteboard: depends on 519589?
Keywords: regression
It looks like there has been a fix between Firefox 3.5 and latest trunk and it broke once more. The problem looks very much the same. Same shadows etc.
Depends on: 519589
Might want to check with Bholley and JDrew since decode-on-draw landed some code.
The patch for bug 519589 does fix this problem, so hold off any more analysis until verification.
Fixed by the patch for bug 519589, and verified by testing the imaged referred to above.

Nathaniel, can you please test and verify that it is now working as it should?
