[WSG] re: Firefox v3 and opacity on opacity

2008-12-19 Thread Foskett, Mike
Hi all,

 

After finally upgrading Firefox to version 3.05, I encountered a rather
unusual bug.

 

When opacity is set to more than one level of container, contained links
render badly on hover.

Hovered link text turns white on white, which doesn't return to the
natural state on mouse out.

Scrolling the link off screen restores the link colour.

 

Here's a demo which only causes issues in Firefox v3.

 

html xmlns=http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml; xml:lang=en lang=en

head

  meta http-equiv=content-type content=text/html; charset=utf-8 /

  titleopacity/title

  style type=text/css

 html * {border:0 solid; padding:0; margin:0; list-style:none}

 a,

 a:visited {color:#5E6277}

 a:active,

 a:focus{color:#c60}

 a:hover{color:#000}

 #wrapper{border:1px solid #ccc; width:200px; padding:20px;}

 #panel{border:1px solid #f00; margin:0 auto; background:#eee;

Does anyone out there now of a solution?

RE: [WSG] re: Firefox v3 and opacity on opacity

2008-12-19 Thread Foskett, Mike
Hi Nick,

 

The issue shown occurred on two different PCs and one Mac running
windows.

It doesn't occur on the Mac version of Firefox 3.

My PC is using version 3.05.

 

Here's a cropped screen grab of the supplied code, showing the effect
after the mouse hover.

[WSG] HELP: Need a bug fixed in Firefox to support development of open source accessibility testing tools

2008-12-19 Thread Jon Gunderson
There is a feature needed in Firefox to find out which DOM nodes have
user interface event handlers.

This would allow Firefox Accessibility Extensions and tools like
Firebug to test for features needed by people with disabilities to
make dynamic web applications more accessible.

For example, nodes with mouse event handlers also need keyboard event
handlers associated with them to help keyboard only users access the
dynamic web content.

There is already a 6 month old bug in bugzilla on the issue, but it
has not been assigned to be fixed: Bug 448602 - Have a way to
enumerate event listeners

URL to bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/

If you have a bugzilla account you can add your vote to increase the
priority of the bug being fixed:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/votes.cgi?action=show_bugbug_id=448602

If you don't have an account, please create one and vote for this bug.
 The more votes the more likely someone will be assigned to fix it.

Thank you for your help and happy holidays,
Jon
