HTML elements on the below webpage obscures Firefox's scroll bar. That should never be alowed to happen, right? It only happens on that particular page though, not other pages on the same site. Haven't a clue as to why but it's obviously a bug that needs fixing.

That is not the main scroll bar attached to the body or html element, but a scroll bar attached to a scrollable div container that is part of the page. This is just an example of a bad design. I see the same in Google Chrome and there this top widget is a lot longer with 5 elements.

I can't believe I didn't notice that. Sorry for the confusion.
