12154 - [4.xP] events don't work on AREA elements

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 9140

(Core :: DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling, defect, P3)

Description

[David Baron :dbaron: (⌚️UTC-4, no longer working on Mozilla)]

DESCRIPTION:  Mouseover and mouseout don't work on AREA elements, which are port
of imagemaps.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:  Load attachment (to be attached).  Hover mouse over left
half (roughly) of image.  You will see pointer change to indicate link.  You
should see a window alert saying "Mouse OVER" when you go over the area and one
saying "Mouse OUT" when you go out of the area.  (These alerts may currently
show up in the text window.  I'm not sure.)

ACTUAL RESULTS:  The alerts do not happen.

EXPECTED RESULTS:  Either dialog-box alerts with above text or alerts in the
text window.

BUILDS TESTED:
 * Linux, apprunner, 1999-08-16-08-M9.

WORKS CORRECTLY ON:
 * Linux, Nav 4.6.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
This is a spinoff of bug 11518.

Changing beginning of title from "onmouseover and onmouseout..." to
"events...".  The bug I'm about to mark as a duplicate of this one shows that
onclick doesn't work either.
