Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

The onMouseUp event fails to fire, when left mouse button is released on
element, while being previously pressed on other element, which might be
absolutely positioned. Visit the demonstration page
(http://ondras.praha12.net/bug.html) for better understanding.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create onMouseUp event for some element (addEventHandler works the same way)
2. create some rather complicated DOM structure, see
http://ondras.praha12.net/bug.html
3. press mouse button down on an element, move to another (the one with
onMouseUp attribute set) and release. Based on the starting element, sometimes
nothing happens.

Actual Results:  
nothing :)

Expected Results:  
An event should fire, for example showing a dialog box (see
http://ondras.praha12.net/bug.html)

This happens both in 1.0.4 and 1.0.6. It was reported that DeerPark Alpha2 is
ok, but I haven't found this bug anywhere, so I'm posting it.

Using a trunk build, onMouseUp events fire as expected.

reporter, can you please try this with Deer Park Alpha 2 (Firefox 1.5 alpha) to
make sure that this bug has been fixed? Then it can be closed RESOLVED WORKSFORME.
