Main content in this CSS columnar layout goes in here
Warning: Make sure you have the Windows Task Manager opened (right-click on the task bar and select Task Manager) so that you can monitor the CPU percentage activity for applications.
Steps to reproduce:
- Load this page.
- Load this page and then do a left click in the middle of the page: then, the content of the whole webpage disappears!
- Load this page and then try to select some text with the mouse or with the keyboard: task impossible to accomplish.
- Scroll down the page, then increase (or decrease) text size with View/Text Size/
Actual results in Internet Explorer 7:
The iexplore.exe application CPU percentage activity will be in the
high 90%s and will remain in the high 90%s. Increasing or decreasing
text size (View/Text Size/) will also create an hung application with
unpredictable page layout. Trying to select text with mouse or
keyboard will be impossible to accomplish.
To disable, to disactivate the hang bug, just scroll down this page with mouse (clicling the vertical scrollbar down thumb) or keyboard (PgDn, arrow down, End). Then a background-orange right sidebar will become visible, viewable when you scroll down a bit and then the CPU percentage activity for iexplorer.exe will go from high 90% to 0%.
