185925 - first select box visible on page *always* has focus for mouse scrolling

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 33732

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

Description

[Jacob Kjome]

Using build 2002121608 on Win2k (sp3)

When I go to a page with a select box, that select box has focus for mouse
scrolling until the page is scrolled (by other means) to a point at which the
select box is no longer in view, then normal scrolling returns to the mouse.  It
is always the first selet box that has focus.  Even if I click on the page
outside the form elements, the first select box always has the focus.  Keyboard
scrolling works just fine all the time.

Note that I am using a Kensington Thinking Mouse with the latest MouseWorks
driver.  I have not tested this behavior with a Logitech mousewheel.

Adding the main Bugzilla query page as a prime example of this behavior in the
URL field above ( http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/query.cgi ).

When I load that page and try to scroll down with the MouseWorks thinking mouse,
all that moves is the first select box (the "product" select box).  Even if I
click somewhere on the page to try to move focus off the select box, scrolling
with the MouseWorks mouse just scrolls the select box.  Only when I scroll down
by some other means and get the problem select box out of view does the
MouseWorks mouse scrolling start working again.  And, actually, there is a
caveat there as well.  If there is another select box still in view, that one
now takes the focus for the MouseWorks mouse scrolling.  Weird.
