[thelist] [javascript] Mozilla doesn't trigger event

What do you mean by "clicked to page forward"?

Mozilla has bad support for the scroll event on windows: it doesn't
fire when the user uses the mouse wheel or arrow keys to scroll the
page.

On the other hand, mouse wheel and arrow keys don't work in elements
with overflow: auto, anyway (another bug), so officially the scroll
event for elements with overflow: auto is fully supported: any way of
scrolling the element (ie. dragging the scrollbar only) fires the
scroll event.
