Something may have happened to Area 51 within the last 24 hours (it was fine when I checked yesterday). With no known change to my setup (for example, it is still Firefox 11.0) I now get:
Is this a bug?

2No repro in FireFox 10 or Chrome 20 (updating FireFox to 11 right now). Edit: Ok, so that update took me to FireFox 13 (who knew!). Still no problems for me.– Josh DarnellCommented Jul 11, 2012 at 17:32

Zooming in makes the panel go to the left (conversely it should be reproducible by zooming out). It may not be a bug after all. (I have set 'toolkit.zoomManager.zoomValues' to a custom value in order to be able to have more fine-grained zooming, "0.300,0.341,0.387,0.440,0.500,0.538,0.579,0.623,0.670,0.700,0.732,0.765,0.800,0.824,0.849,0.874,0.900,0.924,0.949,0.974,1.000,1.024,1.049,1.074,1.100,1.124,1.149,1.174,1.200,1.231,1.263,1.296,1.330,1.371,1.412,1.456,1.500,1.548,1.597,1.648,1.700,1.770,1.844,1.920,2.000,2.093,2.191,2.293,2.400,2.538,2.683,2.837,3.000".)– This_is_NOT_a_forumCommented Jul 11, 2012 at 17:46

3I can repro when zooming in Firefox but not in Chrome or IE9. So I call this a Firefox bug.– Jeff AtwoodCommented Jul 11, 2012 at 17:46

It can be due to the fact that
csscould not be loaded completely due to slow internet speed.Try clearing the
cacheor Restart yourBrowseror restart your machine and make sure thecacheis cleared before checking next time.
Hope this will help you.

How exactly is the cache cleared? Menu Tools -> Clear Recent History? Commented Jul 11, 2012 at 18:26

That seems to be the keyboard shortcut for menu Tools -> Clear Recent History Commented Jul 11, 2012 at 18:35

Yes, but it doesn't make any difference in this case (and I wouldn't expect it to). Commented Jul 12, 2012 at 1:53
As noted in comments to the question, this can happen to Area 51 by zooming out (accidentally hitting Ctrl and scroll wheeling is the easiest way to do it by accident). Firefox helpfully remembers your zoom level for a website, which will make the problem persistent.
Hitting Ctrl+0 resets the zoom level and hopefully solves your problem.
