OK. Here is a glitch, sorry if this has been mentioned before.
This is an erratic glitch. I am now up to three other people besides
myself who have been able to see this glitch. It seems it only
happens in IE. And the <hr> causes this thing to happen.
Now, I have ~tried~ to make this glitch, and that is tough to do. I
had did it that one time, and I should have saved the work. But I
didn't save the work :(
<hr> must be near the top or the bottom of the doc for this thing to
kick in. An hr in the middle of the doc works just fine. Besides
being at the top or the bottom, I believe it is the amount of text,
and the closest commands (<p> etc.) that make this glitch work. And
now, I'm thinking a person must have a mouse with a wheel for the
glitch to kick in.
Here are examples I have found recently. I don't know how long these
will be here as I will be writing to the author of the pages about
this, and we are already in email contact.
What I do, on these following pages, and when I do this I see the
glitch, which is text that disappears and reappears. I use the
keyboard command Ctrl+End to get to the bottom of the doc quickly and
easily. And then scroll up a little and text suddenly appears. An
alternative is to use the mouse to find the "missing" text.
And that's the glitch BTW, it looks like a blank area, but it actually
does contain text.
That first one, adjust.html, this works *every time* for me on my
computers, one with WinXp and the other with WinMel. When I ctrl+end
to the bottom there is a blank area between the words 'firebird' and
'home page'. But actually there is text in that space.
Well, do I have something brand new here?
(ps. these are not my pages, I am writing to the author)

And this, despite the <hr>, has no problems:
