1780350 - Reader mode forgets scroll position when following link and navigating back

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Toolkit :: Reader Mode, defect, P3)

Description

[mbw+bz]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:102.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/102.0

Steps to reproduce:

From within reader mode, following a link and navigating back does not restore scroll position.

Example:

• Go to https://www.datagubbe.se/decusab/
• Activate reader mode
• Click on second image (the one where it says "click for a larger image")
• Navigate back

Actual results:

The browser navigates back and is in reader mode again. However, it is at the very top of the page.

Expected results:

The previous scroll position should have been restored.
This would be consistent with the fact that reader mode scroll position is saved and restored from previous sessions also.
