Hi everyone,
We are in the process of implementing XHR onprogress attribute on
WebKit and arises a compatibility issue with the Firefox
implementation.
Currently the XHR2 draft specifies that we use the ProgressEvent
interface for onprogress events whereas Firefox uses the DocumentL&S
LSProgressEvent interface.
We are left wondering which way to go.
Does someone know what the prospects are: will Firefox change its
behavior in the future or should we ask for a modification of the
draft?
This is definitely a good question, one that I'd like to see addressed too.
I think that if the spec remains as is Firefox would likely fire events
that implements both the ProgressEvent interface and the LSProgressEvent
interface, but encourage people to use the ProgressEvent interface.
Possibly even by putting a message in the error console when the old
interface properties are accessed.
