            Description

            Issue Scenario: An application uses a page that is larger than the browser view. Thus a use is required to scroll the page to see other fields at the bottom of the page. If a user sets focus to an input field at the top of the page, scrolls down, and hovers over an area with a panelTooltip, the page is scrolled back up to the top of the page. This seems to occur only in IE8. Testing in Firefox and IE7 does not reproduce this issue.

              This has nothing to do with the component. It is caused by the focus management of the framework. Focus management tries to re-set the focus after a roundtrip to the server. This will cause IE to scroll to the element in focus. See screenshot 1 for the line of code that causes this.

              The IE issue is a known issue. See screenshot 2, for example.

              The solution used was to avoid re-applying the focus on an already focused element. This way IE8 won't scroll to the focus element when a focus command is received.
