They probably use Javascript to hide/show the navigation bar as you scroll and my guess is that they set its position with Javascript instead of CSS.

Knowing the state of modern webdev that is probably exactly what happens

Javascript was a mistake.

I had bottom-bars appearing around 3/4 of the way down the screen on Firefox on my Android and never did find the actual cause (scoured about:config but no luck) but I solved it by clearing data and starting a new profile.

First I forced closed the app and backed up the file with my tabs using a file manager with root access:

/data/data/org.mozilla.firefox/files/mozilla_components_session_storage_gecko.json

Then cleared the data, launched it and signed in and such, forced it closed again, copied back the tab session file, and launched it again.

I did something similar (not quite as thorough) and it worked. Thanks for the tip.

I just tried their site in fennec w/ NoScript and only have their main domain whitelisted. That bar appears at the bottom for me. Not sure what's going on here.
