756942 - eltiempo.es - map hover action is not triggered as expected

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Dan Horner]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.7; rv:13.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/13.0
Build ID: 20120508180640

Steps to reproduce:

Visited eltiempo.es, clicked a region of Spain on the map


Actual results:

A page for the regional weather loaded.


Expected results:

The map should have had an intermediary event before the regional weatherpage loaded; akin to the hover over when using desktop Firefox on the same pafe.
- fyi, on an iPad, the name of the region appears, which can be then clicked to go to the regional weather page.

In general triggering a hover on a touch device is hard since there's no mouse input. The stock browser seems to do it if you hold your finger on the map for a second or so, and Chrome does what we do where touching the map goes straight to that region. Not sure if we should be changing our behaviour for this. How does the iPad do it, do you have to hold your finger on the map for it to show the name?
