770680 - Restore missing live example for pointer events

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Developer Documentation Graveyard :: API: DOM, defect, P2)

Description

[Janet Swisher]

The link from https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS/pointer-events to http://developer.mozilla.org/samples/cssref/pointer-events.html gives a 404. It's not clear whether this example was never uploaded, never submitted, or just linked incorrectly.

Right next to the link it says "Not available, check back later". Nobody has written this example yet. :)

My blog post:

http://davidwalsh.name/pointer-events

...has a demo, though it's not great.  The major thing to hit in the demo is that "pointer-events: none" prevents click events from firing.

I mark this a dependent of the live examples bugs so we remember where to find a useful one when the feature will be there.

Not seeing a link. In fact, all I see is an empty "Examples" section. Maybe I'm confused?

Nope, there's no link there. Dunno what the deal is.

I removed the link. There is no point to link outside the wiki to a 404. Nobody can create the page easily and following the link will lead to frustration.

We will add examples for this page once we have our Live Examples Tool.

Updating bug accordingly.

I made a live example. (#Example_2)

Please write description for this code.
If this code is wrong, please fix it.
