    text
    copied!<p>I have an application built with SproutCore, and recently several Windows 7 users have reported that mouseclicks (buttons, radio buttons, etc.) don't work at all, on either the latest Chrome or Firefox browsers.</p> <p>After trying several Windows 7 computers, I finally found one that replicates the problem. Not only that, I found that the problem is visible on the official SproutCore demo sites, <a href="http://showcase.sproutcore.com" rel="nofollow">http://showcase.sproutcore.com</a> and <a href="http://demo.sproutcore.com" rel="nofollow">http://demo.sproutcore.com</a>. While the latter is running an old version of SC, the former is running SproutCore 1.10.0.</p> <p>On the demo site, none of the controls that require a mouseclick work. The main demo selector scrolls with the scroll wheel, but nothing can be selected. At <a href="http://demo.sproutcore.com/sample_controls/" rel="nofollow">http://demo.sproutcore.com/sample_controls/</a> the tabs can't be clicked. At <a href="http://showcase.sproutcore.com/#ui/SC.ButtonView" rel="nofollow">http://showcase.sproutcore.com/#ui/SC.ButtonView</a> the buttons don't respond, etc, etc.</p> <p>This is replicatable on my computer and the computers of two of my users, using both Chrome and Firefox, but IE 10 and Opera do work. One of the computers is running Windows 7 Ultimate SP 1, the other two are running Windows 7 Professional SP 1. Most other Windows 7 boxes I have tested, however, do <em>not</em> show the bug, so I realize this is going to be very difficult to debug.</p> <p>On my app, if I get a reference to a button view and run </p> <pre><code>SC.run(function() { view.triggerAction("mousedown"); }); </code></pre> <p>the button does click. So somehow the clicks are not triggering that event correctly.</p> <p>Has anyone else experienced this and/or knows of a solution?</p> <hr> <p>Edit: Looking around at other sites that use SproutCore, I find that the SC Buttons at the top of <a href="http://www.bong.tv/" rel="nofollow">http://www.bong.tv/</a> do not work, but the demo site <a href="http://tasks.sproutcore.com/tasks" rel="nofollow">http://tasks.sproutcore.com/tasks</a> <strong>does</strong> work. I have not yet worked out what's different about the Tasks buttons (nor what version of SC it uses).</p>
