On the English Wikipedia, I started editing a page by clicking "[edit]" next to a section header. After editing (adding a line including an internal hyperlink), I started to save. Each time I type a character into the edit summary box, the article page (behind the Visual Editor popup box) scrolls upward, until it is at the top of the page. This is rather distracting and potentially confusing. I'm using firefox-22.0-1.fc18.x86_64 on Fedora Linux.
There are other scrolling problems which may be related: * When first clicking on the [edit] link at the top of a small section, the Visual Editor popup box can cover most or all of the section. I have to scroll up before I can actually edit it. There are two or three scroll events (the page scrolls up or down on its own) after clicking [edit] before the page stabilizes and I can start editing. * After hitting Cancel, the page scrolls to the top of the previous section, not the one I was editing.
I've had this happen to me, too, on a Mac running OS 10.7.5.
This was bug 50538, fixed months ago - sorry for the disruption, and the slow reply. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 50538 ***
