353309 - When a link is clicked, actual page sometimes scrolls back to the top

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 353005

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de; rv:1.8.1b2) Gecko/20060821 Firefox/2.0b2

Often when a link is clicked, FF does not follow the link but the actual page scrolls back to the top. After this you have to scroll down and click the link again. The second click then follows the link. It's very annoying!

This happens with several sites (one of them see under "Reproduce), but not with FF 1.5.x.x.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to www.radio-prima1.de
2. On the left click "Nachrichten"
3. Scroll down to the bottom of the page an click "eine Seite weiter"

Actual Results:  
Page often scrolls back to the top

Expected Results:  
Following the link (here: display the next page)

Have you also tested this in a new profile without extensions?

Yes, the behaviour is the same.

Confirmed. It seemed it happens only to some kind of links.
