Bug 33102 – pan-scroll does not work with elements with overflow

• Status: UNCONFIRMED
• Component: New Bugs

[John A. Bilicki III]

The mouse autoscroll feature does not work with elements with overflow.

Just a basic example of an element with overflow...

<style type="text/css">
#example {height: 60px; overflow: auto; width: 300px;}
p {height: 70px;}
</style>

<div id="example">
<p>stuff</p>
<p>stuff</p>
<p>stuff</p>
</div>

I am using Safari 4.0.4 on 32 bit XP.

There two was for autoscrolling:

1 - Start text selection with mouse, and drag the selection towards the scrollable block boundary.
2 - drag a draggable item (say a link or a selected text) towards the scrollable block boundary.

Both are supported in WebKit, but Safari only enables the former.

Which one are you talking about?

Antonio,

Auto-scroll works in Safari 5.1 and Chrome 29. It has nothing to do with drag-and-drop.

Are you talking about pan-scrolling? (clicking with mouse middle button, and then scroll, a windows-only feature)

This is autoscroll...

I'm not sure what you're talking about as I don't use kitchen tools when browsing websites.
