User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8a) Gecko/20040516 Firefox/0.8.0+ Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8a) Gecko/20040516 Firefox/0.8.0+ If I increase Text Size (Ctl+'+') the "current" position on the page seems to be completely lost. Typically, I wind up at a point very far "up" the page from where I was. IMNSHO, the browser should record the source-position of, say, the upper left corner of the display (or the middle - ANYTHING VISIBLE); then re-display with the new text size beginning with the recorded source-position. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Pick a long page -- www.groklaw.net has plenty of them! 2. Move down a few screens, make note of the currently-visible text; 3. Click Increase_Text_Size two or three times (make normal text appear about 16pt; 4. See how far you need to page down to relocate the original text. Actual Results: The new text position was about half-way to the top from where I began. Expected Results: The text originally visible at the top of the screen should _still_ be the text visible at the top of the screen.
Is this the same as Bug 64926 or something different?
