Hihi,

I've discovered an oddity in the behavior of the Google translate tool
(Display mode: inline, Dropdown only) in Google Chrome and Apple
Safari (IE8, Opera, and Firefox are not affected, it seems).  I added
the translate snippet to a site I'm working on, and now when I visit
said page it scrolls itself down to near the bottom of the page if the
URL I navigated to has a pound sign (#) at the end.

I have no anchor links or anything near the bottom, and to demonstrate
this oddity in action, I created a simple page with only some lorem
ipsum text and the Google translate snippet.  If you visit
http://davidhuerta.me/google_translate_test/# (on Chrome or Safari on
a non-iOS device), your scrollbar will be moved to near the bottom,
despite it having no reason to.  If you visit 
http://davidhuerta.me/google_translate_test/
the scroll position won't be affected.

Why?

Love and kittens,

.dh
