290815 - :hover state disappears on mouse wheel scrolling

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 20022

(Core :: DOM: Events, defect)

Description

[reindert]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050223 Firefox/1.0.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050223 Firefox/1.0.1

in the page http://www.astridnijgh.nl/nieuws.html, there are several blocks of
text (those are within a <div class="blok"></div>. Hovering the mouse over one
of these will change its style, as specified in the style sheet using ':hover'.

The problem: when using the mouse scroll wheel, the :hover style disappears, and
the block is displayed like the mouse is not over the block (although it still is). 

This problem also occurs with Epiphany 1.4.6 on my linux system.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to http://www.astridnijgh.nl/nieuws.html
2. hover mouse over one of the blocks (preferably a large one)
3. see style change
4. scroll with mouse wheel, but make sure that pointer stays inside block.
5. observe style changing again

Actual Results:  
:hover style is not displayed anymore, even though mouse pointer is still over
element

Expected Results:  
detect that mouse stays inside element, so keep displaying :hover style
