22680 - Does not return to same page position in prior document

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect, P3)

Description

[John Craig]

I read CNN a lot.  I always return to the HOME page to scan down for additional
news.  I have noticed that going 'BACK' to the prior page always takes me to the
TOP of the prior screen.  For me, this is a 'major' irritation and big enough to
cause me to not use a particular browser.  I like the work being done on
Mozilla.  I just wish I could contribute something with the coding.  Also,
TABBING and using the <ENTER> key to select something is not working for me on
M12.  My OS is Windows 2000 Release Candidate 2, build 5.00.2128    Tnx, John
Craig

The first issue, returning to the same place when going back to the previous
page, is definitely a DUP of an open bug (sorry, eluding me today).

The second issue, tabbing navigation and selection, is being worked on; there
are several other bugs already open ( check TAB in Summary ).

FWIW, getting focus to the first tab-able element isn't working now;
if one such is right clicked and then the context menu is dismissed,
TAB and ENTER work as expected.

Since there are two issues, both known, marking this as INVALID.

[e-mail], there should only ever be one issue per bug report, and you
should specify exactly what isn't working as you expect and how it should work,
with steps to reproduce the problem. Details are available at
