    Jocke> This is a simple html-page containing this code:

    Jocke> <html> <body> <div style="position:absolute;">

    Jocke>  <div style="position:absolute; overflow:scroll">
 
    Jocke>  </div> </div> </body> </html>

    Jocke> Was this already known?

Tested on following browsers on Red Hat Linux 8.0, i386:

galeon-1.2.6-0.8.0: Consumes 100% CPU but continues to respond to
events.

kdebase-3.0.3-14 (Konqueror): No effect

mozilla-1.0.1-26: Consumes 100% CPU, stops responding to events (or
takes overly long to respond -- I didn't wait more than a couple of
minutes).

netscape-communicator-4.79-1: No effect.
