SVG elements do not support the ondblclick event handler. HTMLElement and VML (on Internet Explorer) both support this event handler.

Reproducible: Always

SVG 1.1 does not define an ondblclick event attribute:

Comment 2

[Jesse Costello-Good]

I know. That's why I added this as an enhancement.

Comment 3

I'll be surprised if clickCount doesn't work. Can you provide a testcase?

Comment 4

[Jesse Costello-Good]

Attachment: Test case for ondblclick. Shows onclick, onmousedown, and onmouseup working with evt.detail equal to the click count.

Comment 5

[Jesse Costello-Good]

You're right about clickCount (evt.detail). I still think that this is worth considering given that HTMLElement and VML elements (on Internet Explorer) implement it.

Comment 6

[Jesse Costello-Good]

Attachment: Same as before, shows ondblclick for DIV.

Comment 7

[Jonathan Watt [:jwatt]]

fair enough. I think there are a lot of higher priority issues though (given that there's a workaround).

Comment 8

[Jonathan Watt [:jwatt]]

I think we should really encourage people to be using the W3C way, which is to check .detail for the click count. Hence closing as wontfix.
