The drop-down boxes that let you autocomplete form fields do not scroll with
their container pages when the page is scrolled with the mouse wheel. See the
before and after PNG screen shots. before_scroll.png shows the display before I
scroll with the mouse wheel. after_scroll.png shows the display after I scroll
with the mouse wheel.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to a text field in a form.
2. Type the first few letters of an autocomplete entry.
3. Wait for the autocomplete drop down box to appear.
4. Scroll the page with the mouse wheel.
Actual Results:
The drop down box retains its original absolute position on the screen, which is
wrong because the page has scrolled up. This means that the drop down box
appears to float in a strange position.
Expected Results:
The drop down box for the field autocomplete should move up or down with the page.

It may not be exactly the same bug. The poster of bug 267960 does not specify
whether he scrolls down with his keyboard or with his mouse. I have no problems
when scrolling with the keyboard. However, when I invoke an autocomplete field
and then scroll down with my mouse wheel, that is when the problem occurs.

highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.
While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce

you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.
If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
