Description:
Using Firefox 3.6.17 under Ubuntu 10.04.

Under "My preferences", "Editing", select "Show edit toolbar (requires JavaScript)" and "Enable enhanced editing toolbar".

Edit a long page e.g. https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/w/index.php?title=Constitutional_act_of_the_Czech_Republic&action=edit,
scroll down until you can't see the first lines of the article anymore, put the cursor in the edit box. When the page finishes loading (you may need a slow connection to replicate), the cursor leaves the edit box[n] and the top of the edit box is shown. The text in the edit box is now also shown in a wider font.

Switch off the enhanced editing toolbar and keep the unenhanced toolbar, and repeat the 3nd paragraph test - the page jumps a bit for the unenhanced toolbar, but the cursor stays in the edit box where you were editing and the font stays the same.

  • when I continue typing, Firefox's search-in-page comes up (Edit, Preferences, Advanced, General, "Search for text when I start typing" is selected)
