 When editing a post, usually (though not every time) the categories
 selection area load a div that looks like an iframe of the current admin
 page. see screenshot at this url:

 when this happens, after several seconds, the whole page refreshes, and
 loads a page that looks like this screenshot:
 http://web11567.aiso.net/wordpress-category-bug2.png
 i.e. it is just some of the editing buttons, and nothing else.
 The problem is occuring for me using FF 3.0 on Ubuntu 8.04.
 I have found that disabling javascript fixes the problem. I have tried
 disabling plugins, but this does not fix the problem. I tried downgrading
 from my current wp 2.6.1 to wp 2.6, but this did not fix the problem
 either (I'm not sure when the problem arose, this install is mostly pages
 so post editing (where the problem occurs) is infrequent. Finally, I also
 tried a clean install of wp 2.6.1, and the problem still occurred. I have
 not successfully found other references to this problem by googling, so
 perhaps it is rare, or specific to my platform or the server that it is on
 (hosted on aiso.net, which runs some unspecified flavor of linux). It may
 be the server, b/c I can edit another site with wp 2.6.1 on my ubuntu box
 without the problem occurring.
