Find in page auto collapse for no reason while typing on some website
Hello
On some website (example : https://tasmota.github.io/docs/Commands/ ) the "find in page" search field will just vanish in the middle of typing or while pressing the up/down arrow to go through findings.
Firefox version : 131.0.3

Similar to this guy video : https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=SHNbWrn8OcM
But also happen to me while typing in addition to up/down arrows
I can replicate the issue, but IMHO it's not something that would get fixes here. I would search for a bug or open one. ✌️🏿
Yes it has been like that for years including when you don't use the up or down arrow just as soon as you start typing in a word in the "find" box It will collapse the find box. Drives me crazy because I have to use the find box all the time to quickly find information in articles or pages online. literally encounter it two to three times a day.

On my new Xperia 1 VI running Android 14, the find stays on screen on the forum. 😅😅😅 Let me try another site.
It works. I think while trying to go the results, there's a fat finger issue that makes the find go away IMHO. 🤔🤔🤔 The difference between my phone screens is a half inch. XZ3 vs XPERIA 1 VI

jonzn4SUSE,
It's not all website that trigger the issue. The forum here has no problem on my side too.
You may try the link reported in bugzilla too:

I hate the site, but was able to get it to wok on both phones. See screenshot
On most sites with less going on. I have no issues. see screenshots Anyway the "issue" will not be solved here. I'm done with it. ✌️🏿✌️🏿✌️🏿

Hello jonzn4SUSE,
No problem, it's reported as bug here https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1807145 and this is where I will check for news. About your tests : it's not all website, otherwise that would not be a bug, but a completely not working function :) On my side, only a few of them do this, but it's still quite annoying. As far as I understood at least one site is nok for me but ok for you. no idea why.
lets follow on bugzilla, no need to go further here I think. thank you for your testings
