** The page contains the CSS. There is position:absolute attribute for div tag named header. If we change the position:absolute to position:relative the page scrolls properly - but the div header comes at bottom.

** If the position:relative attrtibute of content div is removed then the page scrolls properly and above problem (header @ bottom) does not come.

So it looks like the issue is position:relative or position:absolute is not handled correctly to calculate the height of the page.

The referenced site seems to have changed and no longer has this problem.

Further, I did a quick test with an extra-tall absolutely-positioned element, and the scrollbar correctly allowed me to scroll across the entire thing.

Thus I'm going to mark this bug as invalid.  If the problem still exists, please reopen this bug with a reduced testcase illustrating the problem.
