82954 - doubleclick.net assumes only IE can display <iframe>

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English US, defect, P1)

Description

[basic]

TESTED WITH: mozilla0.9 win32talkback with javascript turned on
OS: WinME

In the above URL, all the ads appear twice. This is due to doubleclick.net
assuming that only IE can display iframes.

The lines below are excerpt from the page in the above URL:

<script language="JavaScript">
 document.writeln('<iframe
src="http://ad.doubleclick.net/adi/oreillynet/linux;pos=l;sz=125x125;ord=' + ord + 
'?" width="125" height="125" frameborder="no" border="0" marginwidth="0"
marginheight="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>');
</script>
<script language="JavaScript1.1"
src="http://ad.doubleclick.net/adj/oreillynet/linux;abr=!ie;pos=l;sz=125x125;ord=1428034864?"></script>
<noscript>
<a
href="http://ad.doubleclick.net/jump/oreillynet/linux;abr=!ie;pos=l;sz=125x125;ord=1428034864?">
<img
src="http://ad.doubleclick.net/ad/oreillynet/linux;abr=!ie;pos=l;sz=125x125;ord=1428034864?"
border="0" width="125" height="125" />
</a>
</noscript>

END EXCERPT
On the line starting with '<script language="JavaScript1.1"' a javascript file
is loaded from:
http://ad.doubleclick.net/adj/oreillynet/linux;abr=!ie;pos=l;sz=125x125;ord=1428034864?

with Mozilla that URL sends:
 document.write('<a target="_top"
href="http://ad.doubleclick.net/click;2774529;0-0;1;4273826;3-125|125;0|0|0;;%3fhttp://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/javascript/2001/04/06/js_history.html"><img
src="http://m.doubleclick.net/viewad/423943-125-javascripthow.gif" border=0
width=125 height=125 alt="Click here!"></a>');

and with IE5 that URL sends:
<!--
-->

NOTE: I'm not sure if this has anything to do with bug 82865 as I can't seem to
confirm that bug.

Forgot to mentioned that when mozilla's user-agent is set to: Mozilla/4.0
(compatible; MSIE 5.0; Win32)
The site displays normally

reopening.  Now the url includes !abr=nn6, and that may work with Netscape
proper, but it does not work with Mozilla (see bug 130845)
