17385 - opening this URL causes JavaScript failure on WinNT SP#4 using Oct27th daily build

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core :: JavaScript Engine, defect, P3)

Description

[Russell East]

Visit this http://www.nationalgeographic.com/maps/index.html which uses much
Javascript / DHTML.  I'm afraid I'm inexpert at debuggin why it might happen,
but anyway, the Oct27th Mozilla eventually just shows a blank page, and dumps
the following in the console.  It works fine in Communicator 4.7 (or is that
equivalent to cussing around here?     :)

[Mike McCabe]

Looks like an error might be coming from UpdateBookmarksLastVisitedDate?

rjc is the lucky blamee.

Robert -
If you have any better clue as to who the forward the bug to, please feel
free...

Comment 2

[Robert John Churchill]

I added some debugging to UpdateBookmarksLastVisited() in navigator.js and it
completes successfully for the URL in question, so that isn't the problem.

UpdateBookmarksLastVisited() is registered in navigator.js around line # 477 via
the line:

window.addEventListener("load", UpdateBookmarksLastVisited, true);

so perhaps there is a problem with event listeners?  (Note: I see this bug on
all platforms.)

saari, any idea?  I think you might be familiar with the event code. (If not,
perhaps you know who is?)

I think the bookmark issue is a red-herring.  I had neglected to remove the
mozregistry.dat from my WINNT folder.   After I removed it and restarted, I now
get this [ now with Build M11] :

Fixed.  Calling ServiceManager::GetService() can fail inside of a window opened
via JavaScript that isn't local, due to security, so wrap the call inside of a
JavaScript "try" block.

Reopening; see comments to 22719.

Clearing FIXED resolution due to reopen.

[saari (gone)]

Hey, how did this get assigned to me? Just because focus is in the stack doesn't 
mean it is my fault! Tossing back to mccabe

Comment 9

[Mike McCabe]

Funny, that's what I say about javascript traces :)

rjc?

Not me any more.  :^(

[Russell East]

Still happening with M13.  I have a completely new PC with SP5 now.  I 
installed M13 on it this morning.  When I visit the url:
  http://www.nationalgeographic.com/mapmachine
I get:
JavaScript Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Failure"  code: 
"-214746725
9" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)"  location:

eographic.com/mapmachine/ Line: 6"]

Document http://www.nationalgeographic.com/mapmachine loaded successfully

which I think is pretty much the same problem.

Comment 12

[Jim Roskind]

What is the status on this bug? Any chance the fix will make the M15 stability 
checkpoint?  If not, please push to M16 asap.
Thanks

Comment 13

[Joseph Elwell]

worksforme I'm using build winNT 2000041008. I noticed the reporter is using
M13. [e-mail] try downloading a newer version
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/latest/mozilla-win32.zip

If you can reproduce using that version please re-open this bug.

Comment 14

[Russell East]

I'm unable to properly view the URL anymore - I've been trying to get to it 
with build M14,M15 and now M16.  The page that you now see at 
http://plasma.nationalgeographic.com/mapmachine/ prevents Netscape v5/v6 
from viewing, and instead shows a page that recommends that you get the 
"latest" IE or Netscape.  If you open the same page in current IE or NS v4.7 
you'll see what the "real" url is like.

There is a similar URL now available at http://corleone.esri.com/website/301 in 
which a map is displayed using DHTML layers.  If you click and drag the mouse 
within the map, you'll see a "rubberbanding" rectangle which is a feature of 
the map, constructed using layers.  These seem to work now in M15/M16, so I'd 
say that I'm a happy camper, and am happy to leave the bug as resolved.  
Thanks!
