Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 20022

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040614 Firefox/0.9

On the pages which use a hover effect for text links, such as www.gcn.cx or
rense.com you can cause a link to highlight by hovering the mouse over it. 
However, when scrolling with the keyboard such that the cursor is no longer
directly over the link, the link still remains highligted until the mouse moves.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to www.gcn.cx
2. Make the browser window small enough so it can scroll
3. Hold the mouse over one of the navigation bar links so it turns red
4. Scroll using the keyboard so the mouse moves off the link or over another

Actual Results:  
The mouse hover effect is not recognized until the mouse is moved, even if the
mouse pointer is not over a link due to the keyboard scrolling.

Expected Results:  
There should be a check done after a scroll, or window resize instead of just
when the mose is moved.

This was fixed by fixing bug 20022. It happened on the trunk, not on the 1.7 branch.
It should work with trunk builds after 2004/06/22 (it works fine by me).
