[Kyle Kalstabakken]

** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed

** Summary changed:

- Firefox does not remember scroll position
+ Firefox does not remember scroll position for Google Instant Search

** Description changed:

  Ubuntu Release: 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx
  Firefox Package: 3.6.18+build2+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.10.04.2
  
  To reproduce:
- 1) Use Google search, and type in a search term
- 2) Scroll down to bottom of page with the search results
- 3) Click last search result
- 4) Go back to search results
+ 1) Start Firefox
+ 2) Go to http://www.google.com
+ 3) Make sure Instant Search and javascript are enabled 
+ 4) Search for something (e.g., 'firefox')
+ 5) Scroll down to bottom of page with the search results
+ 6) Click last search result
+ 7) Click the back button to go back to search results
  
- Expected to happen: You're returning to the search results page on the scroll position you left it. 
- Happened instead: You're returning to the top of the search results page instead, so you'll have to scroll back down again.
+ Expected result: You return to the search results page on the scroll position you left it.
+ Actual result: You return to the top of the search results page instead, so you'll have to scroll back down again.
  
  This is a problem that makes it clumsy to browse. Click link, go back,
  scroll back down, repeat etc.
