The first few times i visited this , i was looking for a way to access more content then quit half way round. I tried scrolling down , it didn't work . I had to click a link on the left corner of my screen which wasn't even that visible to me. Affordance = 0.

I have Firefox 26.0 installed, it still fails on both Windows 7 and Ubuntu 13.10 (64 bit both).

Can't help you with Windows, but I'm interested to see what happens under Ubuntu. It's on my todo list for tomorrow (by date, not by priority).

It appears to work just fine in FF26 under Ubuntu 3.10 without anything extra installed. Have you tried turning it off and on? Try a new profile (firefox -profileManager) or Restart with Add-ons Disabled (help menu), or perhaps it was just a fluke. Could not reproduce (relevant XKCD: http://xkcd.com/583/ ).

That should've been 13.10, too late to edit :(
