STR:
1. Open http://www.chunnel.com/take-the-chunnel-train
2. Mouse over the "Are you Ready to Be Astounded?" text.
3. Scroll the text using using a mouse wheel or trackpad gesture. (I'm using a MacBook Pro running OSX 10.8.2.)

EXPECTED:
The text to scroll.

RESULT:
The text scrolls, but the entire page scrolls, too.

This bug was a regression in Nightly 17.0a1 (2012-08-12). I believed this bug was caused by DOM3 wheel event bug 719320. Here is the pushlog for build 2012-08-12:

https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/pushloghtml?fromchange=b5ae446888f5&tochange=df8bdd5813f0
btw, neither Chrome nor Safari scroll page when scrolling the text.
Keywords: flashplayer
The reason is the script (http://www.chunnel.com/wp-content/w3tc/min/ef352/default.include.06c965.js) handles neither MozMousePixelScroll nor wheel event. So, this shouldn't be a regression. Perhaps, this can be reproduced before 16 and earlier on both Mac and Windows (needs some additional condition of the device).

So, Please do marking INVA or changing product to Evangelism.
