797542 - npr.org mobile site doesn't scroll in browser

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::Browser, defect)

Description

[Larissa Co [:lco]]

Attachment: NPR mobile site - story page

STR:
* go to http://m.npr.org (or just npr.org-- it's defaults to mobile site) on the browser
* Tap on the link to one of the stories listed

Expected:
* Story page loads, user can scroll down to read the story

Actual:
* Story page loads, but scrolling down doesn't work. Other sites (scrolling works on other sites, such as nytimes.com)

Other notes:
* Could this be related to the Twitter scrolling bug? (#796529)
* The npr mobile site adds a top navigation bar with back and home button (See attachment). Could this be related?

Btw, I am using an Otoro device with build 2012-10-03 12:58:51

I can't reproduce this, but reports of scrolling not working on various sites are building up.

I wonder if there is an intermittent bug with scrolling itself.

I tried again today using the _exact same build_ and was able to scroll. I'm able to scroll Twitter too. (I was able to yesterday as well). I swear, I'm not making this issue up :) There must be a dastardly bug somewhere that _under specific conditions_ removes focus from the page?

Yeah I don't doubt it happens, sometimes just refreshing the page can make it start working again. Unfortunately the intermittent bugs are the hardest ones to fix!

I still can't reproduce this so closing for now, please re-open if reliable steps to reproduce can be found.
