Bug 45400

(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           konqueror
Version:           KDE 3.0.2 
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    Unlisted Binary Package
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

KDE 3.02 using unofficial Debian packages from kde3.geniussystems.net.

Mousing over form elements (typically a SELECT box) and turning the scroll wheel allows the form element to be modified.  This is VERY BAD.  Form elements must require a click to activate them for modification (which was true in KDE 2) else the user's input for moving around the webpage will be confused with the user's input for changing the form.

Since I navigate up and down through webpages by scrolling the mouse wheel when using webpages with forms especially forms which take up more than one screen's worth of real estate so that scrolling down is necessary I end up submitting essentially random data when the form is submitted since the cursor will pass over form elements and randomly modify them.  The scroll wheel cannot be used for navigation on any webpage with forms as long as this bug remains.
