Web slider problem

[inad9300]

Expected behavior

When a link gets opened in a new tab, the effect of doing this should be the same as when clicking the link normally.

Actual behavior

Accessing https://elementary.io/#showcase-epiphany turns the slider into a real mess.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Access https://elementary.io/
2. Open "Epiphany >" in a new tab

Screenshot showing the problem

System information

• Operating system: elementary OS
• Operating system version: 0.4 Loki (64-bit)
• Browser: Firefox
• Browser version: 48.0

@btkostner I thought we didn't use these hashes any more?

[lewisgoddard]

Those links should be a data property.

[btkostner]

We don't change the hash anymore, it's still accessible with new links or adding it yourself. I'm guessing the browser is scrolling that content area right so to where that link would be.

@inad9300 can you double check that this fixes the problem?

[inad9300]

Sorry, it does not. Trying to open Epiphany in a new tab or directly accessing https://beta.elementary.io/showcase-scroll-fix/#showcase-epiphany results in the same situation I showed you in the screenshot above.

[lewisgoddard]

That doesn't seem to happen for me there.

[inad9300]

Well, it does to me with the specified system information.

@inad9300 I believe something was pushed in regards to this, this maybe #1364
Can you check https://beta.elementary.io/master/#showcase-epiphany

[inad9300]

I'm sorry to say, but the exact same problem happens, in a very consistent manner.

Looks like this is an old issue, but I recently open the link on Epiphany (elementary OS 0.4.1) and the bug is still there! Maybe I'll take a look tomorrow (bookmarking the issue)

I can confirm this is still happening when using Epiphany, but not Chrome or Firefox.
