I looked through bugzilla and found a few bugs that mention event.returnValue, but most of them seemed to also use a lot of other functionality that was specific to IEs event model. For example: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=139421 The only bug I could find that was filed specifically for event.returnValue is https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=271528 However bz indicates there that returnValue doesn't make much sense outside of IEs event model. There were also *no* counter comments asking for reconsidering the bug resolution. / Jonas
