144868 - RFE: Reflect mouse wheel scroll events into DOM events

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

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

Description

[saari (gone)]

A particular embeddor has requested that we reflect mouse wheel scroll events
into the DOM so the embedding application can track and respond to mouse wheel
events occuring within a Gecko window.

Attachment: Testcase where scroll event does not fire for mousewheel

This is a bookmarklet that shows the page number.
It only changes the page number when the dom
event scroll is fired.
Click the link.  A box at the top
right will appear with the page number.
Scroll the page with the mouse wheel
and the page number will not change.
Scroll the page by using the scroll
bar and it changes.
The page contains an iframe with a height of 
10000 to
provide sufficient
space, since the function uses
window.innerHeight to calculate
the number of pages.
