[Bug 803018] [NEW] Tab that contains Flash Player leaves artifacts on other tabs.

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

If multiple tabs are open and one of those contains flash content, the
other tabs that do not have flash content will be broken.

Here is an example...
 - Assume a tab with flash has the flash player at a 100x100 pixel square region, starting at location 20,20 pixels from top left of page

 - a non-flash tab will render the page fine.  When you attempt to
scroll, however, the page will scroll except for a 100x100 pixel square
region, starting at location 20,20 pixels from top left of page.  This
part will simply not scroll.  It does NOT contain the content from the
tab that had the flash content, it just simply does not scroll.

 - If, while this "broken scrolling" is occurring, I close the tab that
contains the flash content, the broken tab immediately corrects itself
and the correct content that was masked by the flash region described
above, refreshed to the right content.  This does NOT require a page
refresh -- it just appears right immediately upon closing the tab with
the flash content.

This bug might belong in the flash plugin package, I'm not sure, so feel
free to move it as required.
