734827 - The product image carousel at sears.com does not work in Gecko (div onclick())

Status: NEW

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect, P5)

Description

[Adrian Tamas (:AdrianT)]

Attachment: Screencapture for the product image carousel

Fennec/13.0a1 2012-03-10
Device: HTC Desire (Android 2.2.2)

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Nightly.
2. Go to sears.com
3. Browse products and open a product's details.
4. Scroll the product images using the "prev"/"next" navigation arrows. Try the same for the related products.

Expected results:
The user can scroll trough the pictures or related items.

Actual results:
The image carousels can't be scrolled on Fennec.

Notes:
The issue is not reproducible on the Android Browser.
Looking through the page sourcecode I observed that the iScroll js function is using Webkit specific elements.

They're using fake links in <div's> to click through using onClick. I don't know if Gecko supports this.

<div id="next1" onclick="myScroll.scrollToPage('next', 0);return false">next →</div>
<div id="prev1" onclick="myScroll.scrollToPage('prev', 0);return false">← prev</div>

Nothing fake there. Just click event handlers.
What does myScroll.scrollToPage do?
