222998 - onDblClick event triggered by scrollbar

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout: Form Controls, defect)

Description

[Jacob Coby]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7

The onDblClick event for a select element is triggered by double clicking on the
up or down arrows.  

This makes it difficult to scroll through large-ish sets of options in a select
that sends a form.submit() onDblClick.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a form named "form1" with a "select" element that has a "size" of 5
2. add a select element with an onDblClick="form.submit()" and several "option"
elements
3. double click on either the up or down arrows in the scroll bar.

Actual Results:  
the form is submitted

Expected Results:  
scroll down/up

I forgot to mention that this bug only seems to affect phoenix/firebird. 
Mozilla 1.4 works as expected.

I confirm that dblclick event is triggered when double-clicking on the arrows of
scrollbar of a select and/or of a div in Firefox 0.8 (build 20040206). There is
no dblclick event triggered in Mozilla 1.6 (build 20040113) when double-clicking
the arrows of scrollbar of a select and/or of a div.

I personally believe that this may not be a bug in Firefox but rather a bug in
Mozilla: if a generated scrollbar is always part of the element which
creates/needs it (and this should be the case for all HTML elements able to
render scrollbars), then it would mean that Mozilla 1.6 has a bug. 

FWIW, double-clicking the arrows of a scrollbar of a div in Opera 7.50 PR 1
build 3494 will trigger the dblclick event.

XP Pro SP1 here.

I could confirm also with Mozilla 1.4 (used in Netscape 7.1) and Firefox til 0.9.1.
