54025 - Cannot post/reply in Delphi forums - window won't refresh

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 52898

(Core :: Layout: Images, Video, and HTML Frames, defect, P3)

Description

[scott]

As of 2000092505 (hasn't ever worked):

You can read and maneuver around Delphi forums, but posting a message or
replying to a post doesn't work.  The two topmost frames ("brand" and "navbar")
remain, but the remaining body of the window "locks" and won't update if you
switch tasks.

You will need to create a Delphi account (free) to see this happen.

If you open the frame in a new window the freeze doesn't happen.  I think there
are a few similar bugs filed on this.  Over to HTML frames for triage.

Agreed. I'm not sure if it's a frame issue or a javascript issue, however. The
frames display fine, and you can even get the browser to load other pages once
Delphi has frozen. The buttons themselves call javascript functions, and that's
what freezes the pages.

It's worth noting that this is nested within a table and apparently calls an ASP
script on the server side.

FWIW, this seems to be fixed now as of 2000102304.  Is it a dupe of some other
bug that is now fixed?

Yes, I'm pretty sure this is a duplicate of bug 52898.  Marking Dup.
