An alert/prompt called from chrome extension background pake is shown off the screen (or partially in top left screen). This bug has been fixed in canary build by now, see
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=113899 , but I need to get it working as soon as possible. Do you have any ideas how to work this around using javascript?
Thanks in advance.

You can't position the alert or prompt dialogs in browsers. You have to wait for the bug fix to propagate to the stable branch.
An alternative option is to inject an HTML lightbox into the current tab but that would be a lot of additional work.
One way to go is to further investigate the canary source code, found at the Chromium project on Google Code.
The issue is reported on the Chromium issues page, and the fix seem to be found at this revision on the Chromium sources.
You can check out the diff and compile a workaround based on their solution.

I'm in the process of creating a single page site that relies on the scroll-behavior:smooth CSS property and the method .scrollIntoView({behavior:'smooth'}). I use these mainly to provide a smooth transition between sections, not critical but aesthetically pleasing. Suddenly this feature doesn't seem to be working in Google Chrome. I tested out on Firefox and Chrome mobile and in these works.
I made this pen with the basics of my page: https://codepen.io/gabriel-ar/pen/rEjdYb
Temporarily I've been using https://github.com/iamdustan/smoothscroll , and it solves scrollIntoView, but other plugins like PhotoSwipe are not handling transitions well.
Therefore, what is the best fix here? smoothscroll solves part of it, but apparently not everything.
Is this a bug in Chrome?
scroll-behavior:smooth doesn't seem to be the only property affected, what other thing could have stopped working, if any?
Google Chrome Version 106.0.5249.119
I already uninstalled Chrome and reinstalled it. I Also ran a clean install on a sandbox with the same results.
Thank you!
Update & Solution
It seems this is a local issue, just happening on my computer. Thanks for the replies!
I faced the same issue some time ago, and I came up with this solution:
Open new tab
Go to Chrome's Experimental Flags (chrome://flags)
Search for 'smooth scrolling'
Set the flag to enabled
Let me know if that works for you!
We have recently changed our navigation menus. They have been working fine for everyone except for one user only when that user is using chrome.
The menu will render when they hover over an option the first time but after that, no menus render (see screenshots).
We are using the exact same version of chrome rendering the same website. Has anyone else ever experienced anything like this or have any ideas what could cause this?
Working:
Broken:
Looks to me very much like a caching issue. Some of the JavaScript or CSS from before the update may still be stored in the user's browser cache.
To resolve this, clear Chrome's browser cache.
You can access the relevant dialog via ctrl+shift+del.
I was finally able to resolve the issue.
Firstly, everyone was using the same version of chrome in incognito mode with no extensions and a cleared cache so we're still not sure why only one specific user was getting the issue and no one else. Also that user was 2000 miles away so we could not physically debug on that machine. (It was an manager/admin with sensitive info on the machine so RDP was also not an option)
I was finally able to reproduce the issue by testing using Chrome Canary and discovered that the issue was directly related to hiding the sub-fly-out menus off screen using left -999999999px instead of display: none. Apparently just holding the '9' key down for a few seconds was a bad idea and it seemed to cause an overflow error of some kind and changing the left value to -9999px instead fixed it for that user and everyone else in Chrome Canary.
Thanks to everyone who contributed.
I'm going to try to explain an issue that scratch my head...
When I open this website for the first time after opening Firefox (v43.0.3), the UI freeze during about 20 seconds and I don't undersand why. For example you can see that the background image appear after almost 20 seconds...
So, I used firebug net panel to try to understand where the problem comes from and I notice that the page load event is very long but I can't see any tasks executing during this event.
here is a screenshot of firebug Net Panel
When I open the website with Chrome it works fine, does someone has ever encounter that kind of problem ?
I hope that makes sense, thank you in advance.
You're making 31 requests (according to my NET panel - FireBug) which add to 323ms (at least in my case). Your background image is loading ~1s after. Maybe if you'd try to reorganize all that sprites you're requesting into less files - but it seems fair as loading time for me.
I once had a problem with Firebug itself. I had to turn it off and\or uninstall to get the page load normally on Firefox.
In my case it was an effect of problem between Firebug and Telerik Kendo JS Library.
Maybe you have a problem similar issue.
Thanks for your answers, indeed it seem's to comes from my firefox configuration or addons/plugins.
I use a Firefox pre-configured by my socity, so I installed a portable firefox to try if it works and the website is loading normaly.
Now I just have to find from whitch config or addons/plugins the problem comes from, thanks again !
The current project I am working on builds a page's javascript code based on some conditions. All the code works but when I go to the Developer Tools to see it, it is not showing. Or more like it is truncated and 3 dots added at the end.
It seems to be a change with the recent update. It is extremely annoying to not be able to see everything. Does anyone know how to make it show everything? If it helps, I'm working on a mac. Thanks.
Chrome Version 42.0.2311.152 (64-bit)
If you right click on the <script> tag and select "Edit as HTML", you'll be able to access the whole script, without the hyphenation.
After updating Google Chrome browser to the latest 15.0.874.106 version (under Windows 7), my site is experiencing some weird flickering bug.
The text shadows are displaying completely wrong, the text itself is fuzzy and unclear, some parts of code don't work anymore (e.g. right floating, fixed menu)... etc.
For a couple of seconds the site is displayed fine, then it flickers all of the sudden (while still loading) and then the rendering gets messed up. (I think it has maybe some problems with loading of Google Maps v3)
The funny thing is that the old version of Chrome (before updating, on my other computer) is still displaying the site without any problems, and there haven't been any changes in the code in the meanwhile.
In other browsers (as i said, even in the old chrome) everything is OK. Firebug and Chrome's code inspector (CTRL+SHIFT+J) don't show any errors in the code. I have been doing some digging on the Internet and here as well, and I havent't found anything useful.

Thanks in advance.
I have done same settings changes as mentioned above post and now, that weird flicker got stopped, below are the details....
Open Chrome Browser
Click on Settings menu option
Click on Advance setting link in Settings page
Un-Check "Use Hardware acceleration when available" checkbox
Restart you chrome browser
Happy Browsing....... :)
Also make sure to disable not only accelerated-compositing, but also accelerated-2d-canvas.
This is how I start google-chrome on Linux:
/opt/google/chrome/google-chrome %U --user-data-dir=/root --disable-accelerated-compositing --disable-accelerated-2d-canvas
On Windows, you might want to omit
--user-data-dir=/root
Josip Filipović apology where to do that (in Win7 by entering -disable-accelerated-compositing in properties > target field) that part disables hardware acceleration.
