540121 - scroll to top when line wrapping or newline inserted in textarea with form helper closed

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Joe Drew (not getting mail)]

If you are typing in a textarea after closing the form helper, and your line wraps or you press enter, most of the time your viewport will jump to the top of the page, despite focus remaining in the textarea.

This is in the 2010-01-14 late afternoon build on an N900.

I imagine that's because the real browser position and the visible user area are not sync, so when a reflow happen the platform throw a scroll for the browser (that we handle in browser.js) and so, we scroll to the browser's position (which is 0,0 in general) :(

The 2 options that i can think about here are:
 * wait for bug 499212 to be resolved
 * sync the browser position with the view when the formhelper is closing
