scroll windows are compressed in FF6 and FF7B
I accessed a site that has a scroll area in the middle of the screen and FF6 and FF7B have compressed it so that it is about 8 lines large instead of going to the bottom of the screen. I believe there should be some site compatibility "switches" or configuration that I could use to correct this.

I have added a screen shot of the problem.
No problems here.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I have tried your suggestions with out any improvement. I have to add that when I was talking with the site webmaster, he said that I was not the only one with the problem, that FF6 users all had this problem.
I still cannot get the input scroll area to enlarge to the bottom of the graphic box it is in.
You can try to reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
- Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
- Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
- Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
I'm not seeing your problem with Firefox 6 and the Firefox 7 beta version on Linux.
I'm also not seeing scroll bars for that page area, I see all the text in one large container.
