           Summary: onmouseover doesn't get triggered consistently by DOM
                    manipulation
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HTML Events
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: yeecheng.chin+webkit at gmail.com


In an HTML page when two elements overlap, and the top element is hidden by setting the display to "none", the bottom element's onmouseover event doesn't always get sent.

In particular, in the attached test page, I have it set up so the top element is hidden when I click on it. In the first case the CSS change happens immediately during the click event handler and the bottom element does get the mouse over event. In the second case, I set a timer to set the CSS display to "none" later, and the onmouseover event didn't get sent. Seems like this depends on whether the DOM manipulation happens during a mouse event handler.

Two additional notes:
1) The :hover state gets triggered immediately in both cases, which seems weird to me. Basically :hover is triggered, but onmouseover isn't.
2) This seems to work correctly in Firefox/Gecko.
