Steps to reproduce:

Ctrl+F to search for some text on a webpage that is a link.


Actual results:

URL apears at the bottom of the browser on top of the webpage content.

When searching multiple times (pressing F3) the highlighted text go from the middle of the page to the bottom and when the highlighted text is at the bottom the URL overlaps the webpage so you cant se that area of the page.


Expected results:

The URL should not be on top of the highlighted search text.

Attachment: URL hides highlighted string

Could you confirm whether this is an example of the behaviour you are referring to?

I cannot reproduce by "searching multiple times (pressing F3)": I created attachment 8398064 [details] by scrolling to bring the highlighted text exactly to the bottom of the window. 

Could you please provide an example URL and search query that exhibit the behaviour, and also submit a screenshot?

When I hover over any link, I see the url at the bottom of the page and it obscures part of the web page at the bottom left corner. If I hover over a link in the bottom left corner, the url is displayed in the bottom right corner, so I can still see the anchor text for the link.

If the find window is also open, then the url displays above the find window, obscuring part of the page.  And, in the situation you describe, the word you're highlighting is at the bottom left on a web page. The url isn't moved over to the right, so the word highlighted becomes hidden by the url.  I think I see what scooter means in the bug report and will upload my screenshots.

Hovering over the "Breakpad Wiki" link.  The url appears at the bottom left corner, overlaid on the web page.

Attachment: Hovering over the "Server Status" link.

When I hover over the Server Status link, the url appears shifted to the right, so I can still see the words I'm hovering over.

Attachment: A url displaying with the find bar open

Searching within the page for "Server Status", the words that are in the bottom left corner of the page, shows me a link that obscures the words that are the link's anchor text
