User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20051115 Firefox/1.6a1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20051115 Firefox/1.6a1

This happens to me every time when I view the source of any web page. I can scroll down fine, but if I decide to scroll up after scrolling down, the text in the top of the window is the only text that actully scolls up. It's a weird thing that can happen. It seems to depend on the speed that I'm scrolling. If I scroll very fast, then most of the window will scroll up.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. View the source of any web page.
2. Scroll down.
3. Now scroll up.

Actual Results:  
The whole page does not scroll.

Expected Results:  
The whole window should have scrolled.

I and using and iBook G4 with a Mighty Mouse. My Firefox theme is Noia 2.0 (eXtreme) 2.991. This problem occurs whether I scroll with the mouse, trackpad, scroll arrows, or scroll controller/bar. Left and right scrolling does NOT seem to be affected.

I also have this problem. Scroll down works fine, but scroll up doesn't refresh the page. Using MacOS X, Logitech Click mouse, Firefox v.1.0.6.

Extensions installed: Adblock, Super DragAndGo, Dictionary Search, Web Developer, All-In-One Sidebar, undoclosetab, SessionSaver .2, Tabbrowser Preferences. 

What I've tried so far: Disabled Tabbrowser Preferences in the hopes that it would help (it didn't). I've updated to the latest Logitech mouseware driver and unchecked and rechecked mouse options in Firefox Advanced preferences.

Could not reproduce in versions as early as:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4
And works just as well on the latest version:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.6) Gecko/20060728
Firefox/1.5.0.6

I would assume that this would be a platform specific bug.  Procedure was followed as original poster described, in both full-screen window and partial screen window.
