Sometimes we need to display a form which has a SELECT that should have
a value by default. If the SELECT input control has a size bigger than
"1" and the option selected is not in the first elements (so as the size
of the SELECT doesn't allow to view the item selected), Mozilla browser
won't scroll the SELECT control to the item selected! However, IE6 has
this correct behaviour.
There is a bug in Mozilla about this issue, and I cannot figure why this
bug isn't yet, at least, CONFIRMED.

bug is reproducible in other operating systems. If yes, please post a
