864554 - Address bar hides the tops of pages on first load (e.g, Facebook)

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[PeakInput]

Attachment: Visual Representation of the Issue

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.2; WOW64; rv:23.0) Gecko/20130421 Firefox/23.0
Build ID: 20130421031002

Steps to reproduce:

Load any page, such as from a bookmark.


Actual results:

The address bar obscures the top portion of the page until it auto-hides.


Expected results:

The "top" of the page should start at the bottom of the address bar. The address bar should be hidden as the user scrolls down. This behavior is particularly annoying on sites such as Facebook where important information is at the top. In order to make the information appear, the user has to wait for the bar to autohide, or scroll up.

Do you have an example page demonstrating this? There are a couple of known issues, but if you have an example we can check to verify if it's one of the issues already known and filed.

Ah I see Facebook in your screenshot.

Ah, glad someone has reported this. It affects user experience quite a lot of facebook as the top bar is hidden on load (effectively hiding red notification numbers)

Just to add to this issue (which is likely resolved), I get a similar issue on http://duckduckgo.com/. Once I am able to test the fix I will do so with that page.
