Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 631270

(Firefox :: General, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:2.0b12pre) Gecko/20110216 Firefox/4.0b12pre

When searching with Ctrl-F with the mouse pointer over a link, you cannot see the highlighted search field-- the little link pop-up gets in the way.

I think that when someone searches, any hovered-over links should move to the right side.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Hover over a link
2. Ctrl-F a term away from the viewable "page fold" (the viewable page)
Actual Results:  
You now cannot see the highlighted term because the link-thinggy is over it

Expected Results:  
The hover over link popup should move to the right whenever Ctrl-F os activated.

Other note:

Google Chrome escapes this issue by centering the page view on the search term (instead of moving the page just so the highlighted field is visible).
