Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

1) The release of Ubuntu I am using: Gutsy 7.10
2) The version of the package I am using: 2.0.0.12+2nobinonly+2-0ubuntu0.7.10
3) What I expected to happen
Firefox should show the same line of the page after I increased font size
4) What happened instead
If the page does not fit in the browser window, Firefox shows preceding lines (scrolls up) instead.

Firefox 3 does not scroll back; the vertical positions is somewhat erratic but it generally tries hard to display the same content more or less.
I am not sure how to mark this bug: invalid? fixed?
