VisualEditor: Feedback form moves and jerks the screen around
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Author: Shirudo

Description:
While filling out the feedback form, the form jumps down the screen with every keystroke, until it's mostly out of view. Once there, only the current line that I'm typing in is visible right above the edge, and every few keystrokes (seemingly randomly) make the entire screen jerk up and down quickly. If I scroll down or drag the form back up so that it's centred again, it just jumps back down once I begin typing again.

If it makes a difference, I'm using Firefox 22 on Fedora 18, with Gnome 3 Fallback.

This sounds really unhelpful; sorry about this.

This has also been reported on Firefox 22/Windows 7, and by a third user who hasn't specified browser/OS.
