           Summary: scrollBy() script does not work in mobile webkit
                    browsers
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Android
               URL: http://www.ipulpfiction.com/books/_book ... sGame.html

Here's my issue:

I've created a short story publishing, distribution site ( http://www.iPulpFictiuon.com ) aimed at TABLET USERS. I've also developed an HTML 5/CSS 3 based e-reader, which is designed for and optimized to webkit's implementation of HTML 5 / CSS 3. It currently works perfectly in the desktop versions Chrome, and Safari. You can view a sample here: http://www.ipulpfiction.com/books/_book ... sGame.html  My HTML 5 / CSS 3 multi-column styles were implemented, but the javascript did not execute in the MOBILE versions of webkit browsers:

function pageScrollNEXT() {
storyFRAME.contentWindow.scrollToBy(440,0);
}

It was easy to contact and work with Apple. The problem was fixed in MOBILE Safari with the release of iOS 4.2.

I have tested every tablet device using a webkit-based mobile browser, the latest being on the XOOM, and found the same error. Since the exact same error occurs in the Android mobile browser and in the Palm Emulator SDK 1.4.5.465, I suspect that the root problem is in the javascript implementation in the underlying mobile webkit code.

Apple apparently didn't migrate the fix in iOS 4.2 down or though the webkit food chain. I've reported this to Android and WebOS, with no reply. To whom do I need to talk to get this bug addressed across the webkit ecosystem?

I would like actual contacts as I am having trouble identifying who to talk to. I want our eReader to work in ALL webkit browsers.

Thanks in advance for your help
