In Gecko, it's just something that fires asynchronously after a node's scrollTop/scrollLeft have changed. Scroll events for the viewport fire at the document and bubble to the window, scroll events on elements with 'overflow' not 'visible' fire at that element and don't bubble. Rob -- "He was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed. We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all."
