Thank you for the bug report. Please answer a few questions to help analyze the issue:
1. Which Firefox for Android version are you using?
2. On which web page does the issue happen?
3. Do you have Adobe Flash installed on the device?
4. Do you use the Android stock image or a custom ROM? If the latter one, which one and what version?
5. Does the issue also happen on other websites?
