However it does not seems to be supported by firefox ATM. At least it does not seems to appear in the code: http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/annotate/118234ab24ed/dom/plugins/ipc/NPEventWindows.h#l83 Actual results: No event is triggered in HandleEvent(void *event) Expected results: Mouse wheel event should be triggered in HandleEvent(void *event)

I don't think any other browser currently supports this on Windows and currently things are shifting away from NPAPI. Given that this also has been missing for a while, i don't think this is worth spending much time on. We might take patches on this though.

I wouldn't take a patch for this.

The patch is basically a one liner. Benjamin could you please elaborate why you would not accept such patch ? As said above: things are going away from NPAPI anyway, so where is the harm ?
