Chosen solution

It wouldn't surprise me if there are some compatibility glitches between alternate keyboards and Firefox Mobile...

A workaround was suggested in the following thread, which is to start scrolling the bookmarks list: how do I prevent deployment of on screen keyboard in Awesome bookmarks?

I access bookmarks by tapping the awesome bar. That displays Top Sites, so I have to tap the Bookmarks tab. Did you find a more direct way?

That close keyboard button works for me on Gingerbread. Which Android are you running?

I have a motorola razr maxx hd running stock jellybean. I use swift keyboard. When the bookmarks are in screen the keyboard opens automatically (i wish it didn't). If I hit the down symbol on the bottom left to hide the keyboard the keyboard does disappear but the screen changes back to previous webpage and bookmarks disappear. I can't find any way to see the bookmarks without the keyboard getting in the way.
