http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=10897 Summary: In general, synthetic events dispatched from script do not trigger default actions - click is the exception for compatibility Product: HTML WG Version: unspecified Platform: All URL: http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/content-models.html#inter active-content-0 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-wg-issue-tracking@w3.org, public-html@w3.org The spec says: "Note: The above doesn't happen for arbitrary synthetic events dispatched by author script. However, the click() method can be used to make it happen programmatically." However, for compatibility with web content we had to make this work with click as an exception. Other synthetic events do not trigger default action but click does. See also the test case at: http://www.hixie.ch/tests/adhoc/dom/events/click/002.html Without handling the default action from the synthetic click event, the checkboxes do not get checked. -- 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.
