275520 - mouse events refuse executing when an user moves a mouse cursor fast.

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: DOM: Events, defect)

Description

[Grigory Danileyko]

1. the problem is actual only for fast mousing.
2. the problem exists only on Mozilla's platform (e.g. Firefox 1.0 under 
Windows XP). 
3. The script works fine on MS Internet Explorer v5.5+.

Steps to duplicate:
Go to http://www.supportwizard.com:8080/gui2/expire.jsp, log in the system 
using the default login and password. When the screen is loaded, mouse over 
the menu of the tabs Contracts, Compmanies etc. 

Expected result: when mouse cursor goes away the menu pane should go out as 
well as item's highlighting.

Actual result: sometimes the menu hangs up and can be turn down only after 
secondary mousing. Hightlighting may stay, but may not. Too.

The guy who first submitted this bug report does not have perfect English, the
last sentence should have read:

When the mouse is moved away from the DHTML drop down menu, the menu should go
away (as it does in IE). Using FireFox the menu sometimes stays up there. This
bug is flaky on Firefox - it occurs about 1 time out of 3 when mousing over a menu. 

Please call me at 650 868 6643 if you need any futher details on this bug.

Many thanks,
Colin

Hmm... I can't seem to reproduce this in a current Linux trunk build.  Grigory,
do you see the problem in a trunk build?
