Hi Everybody, My name is Wellington and I'm from Brazil. I'm working is a GNU open source GIS framework for the UN. Now, the framework and all applications we've built with it work quite nicely with IEx. It even work quite nicely with Netscape Navigator, IF we choose the IEx layout engine. However, for my deepest disappointment, whenever we use GECKO layout, it reverse the actions of the mouse buttons, be it in Firefox, Netscape or Mozilla (hence my suspect). The Javascript functionality behind those actions remain working fine, and it was updated to cope with the latest DOM (that's why I'm almost ruling out JS). But the mistery lies in the reversal of the mouse buttons.
Specifically, there's a map and we mark a region of the map for zooming. So it's a mousedown, followed by mouse move, then mouseup. If we use the left button for that (the standard action), it works nicely under the above conditions. Under Gecko, once I try to MOVE the mouse, the forbidden cursor appears and the mouse movement is lost. However, if I use the right button, it works fine. There's lots of Javascript involved, so I didn't want to attach something before having any clue about where the cause could lie. Any clues? Can it be related to JS, CSS, or DOM? After posting this problem to the Firefox support list, it was suggested that the problem could be being caused by an incorrect interpretation of the event.button attribute of the event. I scanned the code and all references to event.button are correct. ny clues?? Is there a way to know if I'm using Gecko or not from inside a Javascript scriptlet? Nice to be part of the list.
