Description

Description

It appears that for some sites, the auto-complete suggestions for input fields either block the input field when they pop-up, or pop-up in the incorrect location. While the second bit is less concerning, the suggestions pop-up blocking user input should definitely be looked at and both issues are likely related to the pop-up positioning on page.

Examples:

Blocking input field:
b1

How it's displayed in Chrome:
b2

Incorrect positioning:
