Android : How to block auto-hide of icons on Google's mobile site

I'm sorry if I'm directing this to the wrong people but if you can help I'd really appreciate it.

When I log into my email on the google chrome android browser there are a series of icons at the top of the page (google+, gmail, calendar,web). Each icon has a tab beneath it stating its name.

That'd all fine and dandy but when I tap on an email, instead of opening the email it shifts my whole screen upwards and screws with where I am tapping (I believe the purpose is to hide those icons). I presume this is done with anchors, but i couldn't say for sure. If you folks know how I can block this terribly frustrating feature I'd be might appreciative.

Thanks!
