267897 - vertical scrollbar in the language add selection dropdown menu is scrolling multiple pages while using scrollwheel

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 267898

(Firefox :: Settings UI, defect)

Description

[Tim Kuijsten]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041103 Firefox/1.0RC2

When I'm am using my scrollwheel in the "Languages and Character Encoding"-menu
to add a new language or set a default charachter encoding via the selectionbox,
it scrolls multiple pages with only one scrollwheelmove. It skips a certain
amount of options because it scrolls "too much".

I'm using the deafult mouse-settings of my Windows XP machine and installed _no_
specific drivers for my Logitech Mouseman Dual Optical.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. The default setting in the Wheel tab of the Mouse menu (in the Windows
Control Panel) is 3 lines at a time.
2. Go to Tools -> Options... -> Click in the General tab the Languages button 
3. Click on the "Select a language to add..."-selectionbox and use the
scrollwheel of the mouse to scroll down.
Actual Results:  
U can see the vertical scrollbar moves too fast and skips some languages. The
same applies to the "Default character encoding"-selectionbox

Expected Results:  
The scrollbar should have moved only the number of lines specified in the
Windows Mouse menu (Control Panel -> Mouse -> Wheel tab), which is 3 by default.

If I select "One screen at a time" instead of "3 lines at a time" in the Windows
Mouse menu it does what is sais (but I don't like that setting for surfing web
pages ;-).

haha, recursive dupes!!

seriously though, this is a dupe of another bug anyway, scrolling in fields like
this is horked in HTML pages and many other places.

sorry for bugspam, long-overdue mass reassign of ancient QA contact bugs,
filter on "beltznerLovesGoats" to get rid of this mass change
