User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; SunOS i86pc; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051130 Firefox/1.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; SunOS i86pc; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051130 Firefox/1.5

If an input element overlaps a div element that has the style overflow: scroll applied, the cursor is missing from the region of the input that overlaps the div.  This occurs if the input is anywhere in the DOM, except as a child of the div element.  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
  <head></head>
  <body>
    <h1>demo</h1>
    <div style="overflow: scroll; width: 200; height: 200; border 1px solid red; position: relative"></div>
    <input type="text" style="position: absolute; left: 50; top: 100"></input>
  </body>
</html>

Actual Results:  
You will see the cursor is missing until the typed input reaches the edge of the div.

It still does not work with Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; pl-PL; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060608 Ubuntu/dapper-security Firefox/1.5.0.4

That's correct, it doesn't work for you, because you use a 1.5.0.4 build, the fix is in the trunk builds.



    
    

    
  
The test case still shows the buggy behavior on my version of Firefox (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; nl; rv:1.8.1.1) Gecko/20061204 Firefox/2.0.0.1). Is that version still built with an older version, or is this a regression?

    
    

    
  
The fix is in trunk, Firefox2 is not trunk.
