Okay, here's a weird one.

Someone was perusing one of my Web sites and said, to paraphrase:

"If I click in the vertical scroll bar below the handle (grippy) the page scrolls down more than one full screen."

That is, the vast majority of pages (I've checked many) will scroll so that the bottom of the first page is now at the top. The pages on my site scroll up past that, so that the content of the initial screen is above the top of the page. Meaning that the user will be missing, not see, some content.

I cannot give a definitive example since it depends to some extent upon browser window size. But, try it at, for instance:

http://edmullen.net/mozilla/moz_combine.php

I only give this page as an example because it requires several scroll-downs to see the entire page.

Then try any Amazon.com page.  I haven't found one where it happens.

Oddly, having checked it in:

IE 11
Opera 18
Chrome 32
Safari (Windows) 5
Pale Moon 24 Moz-based
SeaMonkey 2 Moz-based
Firefox 26 Moz-based

only the Moz-based browsers exhibit the problem.

I'm posting here first but it may be an HTML or CSS issue. Which I would then pursue in an appropriate Usenet group.

I have tested this on a varity of sites online and most do not exhibit this but several do.

Any thoughts welcome.

They show you how detergents take out bloodstains. I think if you've got a T-shirt with bloodstains all over it, maybe your laundry isn't your biggest problem.
