Answer: yes.

Gmail has added this thing or I'm a doofus, I don't know which.

I go to my Gmail (standard view, not basic) by going to gmail.com.  When I do, it redirects me to http://mail.google.com/mail/#inbox. ; Not every time but often enough, it starts up scrolled down to the top of my inbox, due to that #-link there - presumably, the top of my mail list is named 'inbox', so.

I mean, you know how anchors work in HTML - it's the same as when you click on a cut tag, and the page loads already scrolled down to where the cut tag was.

(I'm pre-coffee and so cannot find all the words yet.)

*checks*  Okay apparently, every time I load Gmail and then move to a different tab, that's when it scrolls down.  If I stay on the page, it doesn't.

How do I get it to stop, without having to stay on the page?

[eta] Jeez, forgot: this is on Firefox 3, on Windows.

Pull gmail through a frame. (Feh, it was a shot in the dark, anyway.) A stoopid idea that might work is to install the rememberthemilk extension. That seems to do some weirdness to the gmail page's format, but it's a bit of a rube goldberg kind of solution...
