Firefox appears to be having problems following certain links.

An example:

Choose any of the 'source' links here:

https://docs.fast.ai/vision.utils.html

I find that if i click *above* the link by a mm or so: it follows properly. Think windows message handling is wrongly identifying the location of a click.

Comments welcome. Solutions more welcome!

Hi,

This is a website issue, the box of the resize-images text (a h3 tag) hides the underlying p tag, which contains the source link. Funnily enough, this tag is actually part of the previous section, which seems quite hacky, but this is beside the point. Pretty sure the site depends on undefined behaviour, which apparently works as they expect in Chromium, but not in Firefox. It could be fixed on the website, I don't think this is a browser bug per se. I'd file this at https://webcompat.com

Regards, Balázs
