89449 - onmouseout event doesn't happen when scrolling

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core :: DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling, defect)

Description

[Pat Erley]

If you keep your mouse in a static spot and scroll the window using the scroll
wheel, and the cursor passes over a link that has a mouse over event, that event
happens as it should(like a link becoming bold or changing color.)  If you use
the scroll wheel again, however, the event never undoes itself.

Thank you.

Browser, not engine. Reassigning to Event Handling -
                                                                                   
[e-mail]: do you have a reduced testcase you could attach to this bug?
(See the "Create a new attachment" link above). Or a URL you could provide
in the URL field above? Thank you - this will speed things along.

Probably a duplicate of bug 78765

It is similar to bug 78765, but a site I am writing for work uses onMouseover 
and onMouseout, and the mouse out doesn't happen if you use the scroll wheel to 
moe the cursor off of the object.  Unfortunately, the server this page is on is 
a R&D server and isn't available to the world.

This will most likely be fixed by the fix to bug 78765 but I will leave as new
and mark a dependency instead so this can be re-evaluated after the fix to that bug.

I created bug 98114 as a spinoff from bug 78765. That should cover the problem
described here. I have no problems with the URL you provide, 2001083103 WinME.

Marking WORKSFORME.
