[WSG] re: Firefox v3 and opacity on opacity
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; padding:10px} /style /head body div id=wrapper style=opacity:0.9 div id=panel style=opacity:0.9 ul lia href=#Gzip content: Speed up your site/a/li lia href=#Accessible AJAX glossary/a/li lia href=#Displaying code in web pages/a/li /ul /div /div /body /html Does anyone out there now of a solution?

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.

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