Original bug description:
Opening http://www.wikidot.com/doc:wiki-syntax in Chrome (10.0.648.205)
you get a constantly blinking tab-favicon,
the page is constantly reloading,the scrollbar moves up and down "by itself".
It may be a chrome bug, since this cannot be reproduced in neither firefox nor safari,
just in case …
Works for me in Google Chrome 10.0.648.205 on Linux.

The problem might be caused by some extension…

Deactivated all extensions, problem persists, using Chrome on OSX 10.6.7,
never had this kind of problem on any other page
Update:
It seems to be related to zooming, (I have 22'' monitor),
if I return to zoom level 0, the problem disappears,
This way it can be reproduced on safari 5.0.5, but not on
firefox 3.6.15.
Confirmed. On Chrome 10.0.648.205 on Linux it starts flickering as well when zooming in.

(Note due to mysterious Chrome caching, you may need to explicitly refresh the page a few times before it applies the new scripts to resize the scripts)

Can I ask, what did you fix exactly?

Consider the following code:
This returns about 100000px (+ default body/html margins) in Firefox no matter what the zoom level is. But Chrome returns the value scaled with the zoom factor, which is considered a bug by us. Anyways, there are other ways to get the actual height of the content and we decided to use document.body.scrollHeight instead (which seems to work no matter what the zoom level is).
