Which browsers were involved?

I've seen this only with Netscape or Mozilla browers, and the most
recent version of Mozilla doesn't seem to do have any trouble. 

I've never had trouble with Konqueror (at least from KDE 2 onwards)
and I've never had a problem with Internet Explorer.

I've never tried with Lynx mind you...

I've never seen that happen.
