1138574 - m.futureshop.ca - blank page possibly due to old version of jQuery

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Web Compatibility :: Site Reports, defect)

Description

[Kamil Jozwiak [:kjozwiak]]

When loading the following link in fx, you'll receive a completely blank page:

* http://m.futureshop.ca/defaultpage.aspx?lang=en#/m/search.aspx?q=10298736

I've tried this on m-c, m-a and m-r and received the same blank page for all of the channels. Looks like it's something we are doing differently as the latest Chrome browser loads the same link without any problems.

STR:

- open the above link in any of the fx fennec channels (Nightly, Aurora, Release)
- you'll get a completely blank page with no content visible
- open the same link via Chrome and the website loads without any issues

The link opens to a blank page in Desktop Firefox too. I wonder what's going on?

Mike - Any thoughts?

This looks like an old jQuery bug: http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/8763 which throws "TypeError: c.defaultView.getComputedStyle(...) is null" if there's a hidden iframe.

The fix was included in 1.6.1 (I think): https://github.com/jquery/jquery/commit/304dd618b7aa17158446bedd80af330375d8d4d4/

I can see jQuery 1.7.1 (in libraries.js), but the type error is linking to a jQuery 1.5.2-min.js. Need to look closer to see when and where that is coming in (and if changing that to an 1.7.1 fixes the problem)--I don't see it anywhere so it's possibly being loaded in by a 3rd party script.
