User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8a3) Gecko/20040822 Firefox/0.9 (BlueFyre) Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8a3) Gecko/20040822 Firefox/0.9 (BlueFyre) See url, then go over one of the "powered by" links in the bottom of the page. It should display a layer with info on the sponsor of that site. Instead, firefox jumps back to the top of the page, making it impossible to click the link. Another example: Do a search in Bugzilla that results in a lot of hits (I tried "scrollbar" before entering this bug). Scroll down to the bottom and try to click a bug. Result: the page jumps back a bit (this happens when the mousebutton is pressed, not when it is released), the specified bug is not loaded. In addition, the size of the scrollbars is suddenly totally wrong (too small). You can't scroll to the bottom of the page anymore by dragging the scrollbar. Scrolling the mousewheel or pressing the down arrow works though. Another example: also in bugzilla, in the enter a bug page, try to change the "reproducability" dropdown box. Again the page jumps. Also: entering text in input boxes doesn't display scrollbars correctly or at all. I'm having it now in the details-box of bugzilla. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Do one of the examples mentioned above. 2. 3. Actual Results: Page jumps up, and/or scrollbars resize incorrectly. Some links are impossible to click. Expected Results: Don't jump the page. I also tried a aviary branch build, this works normal. It seems specific to the trunk / 1.8a3 builds.
Just guessing: Related to bug 256282 and/or Bug 252920 etc.?
After some more careful searching, it is a duplicate of bug 256436. This was resolved by backing out a patch for bug 255584, which is dependent on bug 252920... resolving. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 256436 ***
