I am seeing this bug on WIN95 build 2000030408, others are seeing this on win95 3/5/00 build and it is alos been seen on Linux. Go to http://users.ipa.net/~asj/moz3.html Click on a number like 4. The window is positioned over where you jumped. Then move your mouse outside the mozilla window click somewhere else if not running XMOUSE (on win32) so that the browser window loses focus. Then click back in the browser window. You will see the window repositions itself back over the anchor that you first clicked on instead of staying where it was....
Reassigning to Tom because it looks like an event issue

Sounds like focus memory to me. Or, more to the point, focus memory interacting badly with scroll-to-the-focused-object scrolling. Gonna bounce it off of saari.

I see this on linux too, marking all/all.

So what is the right thing to do? Add memory of the scrolled position force it to scroll there once we've restored focus?

Why scroll at all just because the window gets focus?
