New Google Demo 100K Stars - Zoom scrollwheel not working

Post by TheVisitor »

Google has a new demo 100k Stars: http://workshop.chromeexperiments.com/stars/

The mouse-scroll wheel does not zoom in out of the demo, works ok in Chrome.

IE10 preview on Win7 says no WebGL support - bwhhhahahahahaha Still behind the curve.

They may be using the non-standard onmousewheel event which Firefox does not support[1]. Firefox has it's own non-stanard DOMMouseScroll event[2]. The DOM standard is still in working draft but finally has a standard WheelEvent.[3] And Firefox will support that in version 17.[4]
