comment permalink does not work in Firefox Browser 16.0.2

[BroadcomS]

The comment permalink highlights the comment but does not reposition the page to the anchor. Refreshing the page will then reposition to the anchor. _This is frustrating to our user community especially when referencing comments from another comment_

The problem was related to a customized search field added to the issue type used to search for legacy issue numbers. Had to add class="dont-default-focus"

<form id="quicksearch" class="dont-default-focus" method="post" action="/secure/QuickSearchLegacyIssue.jspa">

<input id="quickSearchLegacyIssueFieldInput" class="text" type="text" valign="absmiddle" name="searchStringLegacyIssueField">

<label class="overlabel-apply" for="quickSearchLegacyIssueFieldInput" style="width: 184.333px;"> Legacy Issue # Search</label>

</form>
