277387 - Firefox does not scroll to bottom of long pages

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[mkeswani]

When I access a long HTML page such as the one above, Firefox will not allow me
to go to the end of the page. I get to about 2/3 of the way down and then a
cursor appears on the page. Any attempt so scroll to the top of the page simply
moves the cursor up and down on the screen. Firefox then freezes. Sometime,
after a long wait, parts of the page reappear if I move the mouse cursor over
the page.

To reproduce the fault, simply click on the page and then try and scroll down
using the wheel on the mouse. Using the scroll bar on the side does not generate
this fault.
