How to reproduce bug: 1. Go to www.yahoo.com 2. Type 3 or more characters into the text input box. - You will notice the entire page below the the text input box will move upwards by 2 to 3 pixels. 3. Delete the characters typed in - You will notice the entire page will return to its original position. The bug: The page should remain static when typing in data into the text input box. Thanks for looking into this matter.
what build do you have?
confirmed with 112708 build on linux. Win32 and Mac do not have the same problem.

On Windows, I see a similar bug at http://www.cs.hmc.edu/~jruderma/s/. (See also bug 37856.) Bug 58873 is related. I'm pretty sure this bug is already in bugzilla somewhere.

Sounds like a input frame reflow problem, reassigning to rods.

verifying 61878 as a duplicate of this one. However that OS is Win98 this is Linux. Suggest this OS be changed to ALL. (and summary altered to not just signify linux)
I don't see the problem at http://www.yahoo.com/ on Windows. I'll mark this bug all/all anyway though, since I marked a very similar bug that does happen on Windows as a duplicate of this one.
OS: Linux → All

Looks like the table cell containing the textfield is getting resized.

Both this bug and the dupe bug 61878 WFM on recent Linux CVS. This has probably been fixed (or has a newer bug filed on it, since this has been rotting in buster's pile), so closing WORKSFORME...
