Details

I'm using the Flame on 2.1.0.0-prerelease, 33.0a1, 2014-07-07.

It only listens to tap events.
Same issue on v1.3 for the Hamachi.

Ben, what can we do here? Thanks!

I suspect this may be a evangelism issue, but let's send this over to the APZC guys for analysis to make sure it's not a Gecko bug. Note that this web app uses user agent sniffing on Firefox for Android to say that it is isn't supported so I suspect they could be doing something non-standard or weird.

A quick look in the inspector shows they implemented their own scroll bar so maybe this isn't a normal scrollable element.

On the desktop side, it uses a scrollable bar and hover with the mouse to see the "next/previous page" icon.

Perhaps we should dupe this against bug 964167.
Can you provide a URL and STR? There's not a lot of detail in this bug.

STR:
1. Visit read.amazon.com
2. Login
3. Try to scroll down or to one side (since the page does not fit on the screen)

Expected results: I can see other parts of the page
Actual results: Nothing happens

I don't have any books so I probably can't repro exactly what you're seeing. However, after logging in I did get a page which says "you don't have any books" and that page was not scrollable, because it had overflow: hidden set on the body. This appears to be intentional on the part of amazon. I was able to reproduce this in a desktop browser as well with UA spoofing for flame.

If there is something here that needs fixing it's likely an evangelism issue.

Let's dupe against the evangelism bug 964167.
