704096 - [SVG]Events registered on <symbol> does not fire if addEventListener is used

Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Raks]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1) AppleWebKit/535.2 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/15.0.874.121 Safari/535.2

Steps to reproduce:

I registered listener for onclick event on a <symbol> element with addEventListener after getting the element using getElementById()


Actual results:

After clicking on element which was referring the <symbol> element, the callback was not called


Expected results:

The listener registered for 'onclick' should have been called. If I add the listener as an attribute to the symbol as <symbol onclick="listener(ev)" ... > then the listener is getting called but If I use addEventListener inside onload then the listener is not getting called. In all other browsers the listener is getting called even when addEventListener is used
