Communication

Development work will be done using a combination of the following:

Tasks

Getting Started

  1. Clone our repo and build a debug version locally
  2. Get a https://bugzilla.mozilla.org account and CC yourself on the bug.
  3. Set a Watch on this page and the Q/A page so you know when things change.
  4. Break the spec down into an itemized list of things we need to do, tests we need to write, features we have to add, edge cases we have to worry about, demos we need to build, etc. Put the info into this page. We need to know everything we'll have to write and schedule when we'll do each bit.
  5. Blog about your work on this implementation
  6. Add questions/answers to Mouse Lock Implementation FAQ

High-Level Mouse Lock Implementation Tasks

This list is incomplete, and needs more detail added as the following bits are completed.

  1. No mouse cursor is displayed when the mouse is locked
  2. MouseLockable DOM Implementation, navigator.pointer (Notes on MouseLock DOM Implementation Nov 13, 2011)
    1. void lock (in Element target, optional in VoidCallback successCallback, optional in VoidCallback failureCallback);
    2. void unlock ();
    3. bool islocked ();
  3. Mouse Lock Platform Implementations
    1. Windows
    2. OS X
    3. Linux
    4. Mobile?
  4. mouselocklost event DOM Implementation
  5. Extend MouseEvent DOM implementation with movementX, movementY
  6. The browser must exit the mouse lock state if the user agent, window, or tab loses focus
  7. The ESC key should exit mouse lock
  8. Mouse lock should only work when in Full Screen Mode
  9. Refactor nsIDOMNavigator changes for pointer attribute to be in separate interface
