843554 - Firefox checkbox change\click event order is non-standard

Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Core :: DOM: Events, defect, P5)

Description

[steve]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.2; WOW64; rv:19.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/19.0
Build ID: 20130215130331

Steps to reproduce:

Demo:
http://jsbin.com/anafev/5/edit

Run this in FF, webkit, and IE

Clicking a checkbox fires 2 javascript events (good)...ordering(bad):


Actual results:

Event Order:
Click
Change



Expected results:

Event Order:
Change
Click

It's causing issues with our MVVM components...so I don't know if there is a standard and FF follows it, but when everyone else does it the other way...we become non-standard.

Per https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests/pull/2539 , Firefox's current event order (click, then change) is correct with respect to the HTML spec.
No modification is needed.

Bulk-downgrade of unassigned, 4 years untouched DOM/Storage bugs' priority.

If you have reason to believe this is wrong (especially for the severity), please write a comment and ni :jstutte.
