This is not an issue with firefox 3.0 or safari 4.
This issue has direct implications for dragging and dropping files
onto rich text editors that are iframe based.
To reproduce, we added an event handler for the "ondrop" event for the
body element of an iframe. When the following is invoked:
desktop.getDragData(event, 'application/x-gears-files')
in the handler, it produces the error "The drag-and-drop event is
invalid.".
Looking at desktop/drag_and_drop_utils_ie.cc it seems the event that
is passed to Gears is ignored and it uses its own method of getting at
the event.
I was just wondering if this method (GetWindowEvent) handles accessing
event information when an iframe is involved.
Thanks in advance for any time you can spare to look into this.
Cheers,
Dave
