http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=10595 Summary: contextmenu event should be a MouseEvent Product: HTML WG Version: unspecified Platform: All URL: http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/interactive-elements.html #context-menus OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: HTML5 spec (editor: Ian Hickson) AssignedTo: ian@hixie.ch ReportedBy: adrianba@microsoft.com QAContact: public-html-bugzilla@w3.org CC: mike@w3.org, public-html@w3.org Summary: The HTML 5 specification declares that a "contextmenu" event should be fired as a "simple" event. However, several websites rely on the mouse coordinate positions returned by the contextmenu event object in IE8, and Firefox treats the event as a "MouseEvent" object. For interoperability with existing browsers and site-compatibility concerns, we recommend that the "contextmenu" event be a MouseEvent. Existing text: "When an element's context menu is requested (e.g. by the user right-clicking the element, or pressing a context menu key), the UA must fire a simple event named contextmenu that bubbles and is cancelable at the element for which the menu was requested." (4.11.4.3 Context menus) Proposed text: "When an element's context menu is requested (e.g. by the user right-clicking the element, or pressing a context menu key), the UA must fire a MouseEvent named contextmenu that bubbles and is cancelable at the element for which the menu was requested." -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
