[Monotone-devel] Issue 159 - Documentation HTML pages aren't searching friendly on Firefox (monotone)

[code]

Hello,

A new issue has been created and assigned
to you:

159 - Documentation HTML pages aren't searching friendly on Firefox
Project: monotone
Status: New
Reported by: Daniel Atallah
Labels:
 Type:Defect
 Priority:Medium

Description:

On at least Firefox 4.0, there's a bad interaction between the headers and 
footers and the "Find..." (Ctrl+F) functionality.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
-------------------------------

1. Go to http://www.monotone.ca/docs/Automation.html
2. Hit Ctrl+F (or whatever keystroke triggers the "Find..." functionality on 
your OS)
3. Type "stdio" and hit enter.

Expected result:
----------------

The screen will be scrolled to the point where you can see a line that contains 
the "stdio" text.

Actual results:
---------------

The screen is scrolled to the point where the "stdio" text would be visible if 
it wasn't obscured by the "Quick Links:" footer.


A similar effect exists when searching backwards where the header blocks the 
matched line.

This affect doesn't happen on IE or Chrome (partially because they both will 
scroll so that the search result is in the middle of the page, and in the case 
of IE8, the headers and footers don't scroll with the page).

Incidentally, IMO the scrolling header and footer waste quite a bit of 
potentially useful vertical space.
