I'm trying to use the JavaScript tools in Eclipse 3.4.1 for the first
time. I've created a JavaScript project, I've enabled "Web Based
JavaScript Support", and I've added the FireFox Browser Support Library to
my libraries.
I get spurious errors from the JavaScript editor when I use a property
that is not part of the ECMA 3 Browser Support library Element, but it is
specified in the FireFox Browser Support Library
HTML[Html|Body|Head|Script]Element.
The example is below. If I try to use the scrollTop property, I get
warnings on getElementById (cannot convert from Element to __body0), and
tagName (cannot be resolved or is not a field), and on appendChild (the
function appendChild is undefined for the type __body0). With the usage
of scrollTop commented out, there are no errors or warnings in the code.
I tried re-ordering the support libraries, but that then gave errors on
most of the DOM functions.
What am I missing to be able to use scrollTop without error?
Thanks very much,
John
--------------------
var article = ["Hey there!", "Hi there!", "Ho there!"];
function start() {
var body = document.getElementById('body');
var name = body.tagName;
// body.scrollTop = 0; // remove comment on line
body.appendChild(document.createTextNode("Body is a: " + name));
for ( var i = 0; i < article.length; i++) {
var listitem = document.createElement('div');
listitem.appendChild(document.createTextNode(article[i]));
body.appendChild(listitem);
}
}

You're not missing anything, we're working through as many of these
scenarios as we can, as fast as we can. This one is bug 244760.
