175301 - onscroll events do not fire unless scrolled with scrollbar

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 35011

(Core :: DOM: Events, defect)

Description

[Dan Potter]

When the document is scrolled with the mouse wheel or the keyboard, the onscroll
event for the body element does not fire as it does when the document is
scrolled using mouse dragging the scrollbar.

I will attach a test case since I currently do not have a publicly available
webspace.

Attachment: Test case showing scroll events being fired

This is a very basic test case which shows the number of times the onscroll
event has been received and where the document is currently scrolled to.  When
scrolling using the scrollbar, the events fire as expected.  However, when
scrolling using the keyboard (Page Up/Page Down/Space) or when scrolling using
the mouse wheel, the events are not fired.

The words "OnScroll!" appear in the upper-left-hand corner when the scroll
event is fired, as well as the status bar being displayed.

Reporter: I added your information to this to the other, I also mentioned that
the bug I duped this to should be reopened (also other said this).
