Steps to reproduce:

I went to https://input.mozilla.org/en-US/feedback#happy


Actual results:

I didn't find the submit button.


Expected results:

It should have been visible without scrolling, or there should at least have been a clear indication that I could scroll.


Why I consider there being no clear indication that I could scroll, even though the scroll bar was there:
1. The footer usually indicates that its the end of the page
2. The main content is centered and the scroll bar is far away from that

A solution could be to not have position:fixed on the footer.

I like this solution. :Cww, any thoughts on this?

It isn't quite as simple as removing position:fixed on the footer, because of the way the slides animate between button presses. Simply removing position:fixed looks very unattractive. I agree that the footer shouldn't act like this though.

Moving this out of the "themes" components, since "themes" has nothing to do with ui/ux for Input.

I redid the feedback forms a couple of weeks ago and nixed the footer altogether. Further, I broke up this page into two separate pages to make it easier to explain what happens to which data to the user.

I'm pretty sure that solves this issue.

If you check the new forms and think it doesn't solve the issue, please reopen with specifics.

Marking as FIXED.
