That's not how we treat Opera versions. We read an Opera version as x.yz Where x.y is a major version. So 12.1x is current and 12.0x is current - 1.

Safari is handled in a similar fashion.

component: unfiled → event
priority: undecided → low

I think we should take a look and know the problem regardless.

I tried both Fiddles http://jsfiddle.net/alekole/Je7Kq/ and http://jsfiddle.net/amercier/c6z3s/ with all Firefox versions (thanks to Utilu MFC) and here are the results:

  • Firefox <= 8 failing
  • Firefox 9+ passing

According to http://jquery.com/browser-support/ only Firefox < 10ESR are not supported anymore but you should consider fixing this as some companies may still be running old versions of Firefox, such as 3.6.

Best regards.

Firefox 3.6 is long EOL'd and it doesn't even work with jQuery 2.0, I doubt we want to care about it. If a company wants to use a long obsolete and insecure browser, they can use an old jQuery version IMO.

By HTML5-specification, some IDL attributes should be initialized right away – http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/webappapis.html#event-handlers-on-elements,-document-objects,-and-window-objects

In old Firefox and in old Opera this doesn't happen, which affects on the support module, giving us:

#!js
jQuery.support.changeBubbles === false

As has already been said, we do not support these browsers, so i'm closing this ticket.
