305661 - scrollLeft and scrollTop are not updated for textarea

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 229089

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect)

Description

[Gérard Talbot]

This spins off of bug 145577.

The testcase in attachment 117564 [details] indicates that scrollLeft and scrollTop are
*not* updated for textarea.
Testcase in attachment 90585 [details] (from bug 156397) is for <div>.
Testcase in attachment 117564 [details] works as expected for MSIE 6.

Seamonkey 1.0a rv:1.9a1 build 2005082205 and Deer Park alpha 2 rv:1.8b4 build
20050821 under XP Pro SP2 here.

I can create a smaller (or more reduced) testcase if needed.

Steps to reproduce:
1- Load URL
2- 
a) set scrollLeft and/or scrollTop value in the input
b) type in some text on a line to increase horizontal (width) of text value
or add CRs at the bottom of the textarea 
c) drag vertical and/or horizontal scrollbar of textarea

Expected results:
scrollLeft and/or scrollTop values should be updated accordingly reflecting the
changes

Notes: 
Right now, scrollLeft and scrollTop values are updated when modifying text
direction.

You mean, the onscroll event listener doesn't see most scroll events from the
textarea, right?

I don't know that. I can't say. The scroll event might be fired but the 
scrollLeft and scrollTop values are not updated.

The testcase relies for the scroll event to fire on the textarea.
I would say this is a duplicate of bug 229089 then, not?

Yes, Martin, it is a duplicate then. I am sorry. I was sure no one had filed a
duplicate.
Thanks!
