279786 - [FIX]Going back in history doesn't scroll to the right position.

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Layout, defect, P1)

Description

[Martijn Wargers (dead)]

Steps to reproduce:
- Visit url
- Scroll down to the bottom
- click on the latest folder link (currently 2005-01-09-09-1.7/ )
- Click on Back

Result:
The page is not scrolled to the bottom, but much higher.
Also when clicking on a link, the page scrolls down (the focused link gets at
the top in the viewport).

I can't precisely tell the regression range right now. I've got some weird
connection problem with older builds, somehow.
But I think this could possibly have got something to do with the fix for bug
244366 (if not, my apologies), that's why I cc-ed you Boris.

The comments in the patch basically describe what's going on here...

And yes, this is a regression from bug 244366.
