1180155 - In Facebook busy arrow keeps running

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Moni Duettmann]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.10; rv:39.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/39.0
Build ID: 20150630154324

Steps to reproduce:

Opening Facebook and using the home button on top of the page.


Actual results:

A busy arrow (arrow with a blue rotating wheel) appears and does not go away, until you reset the page. The busy mouse arrow appears on all fields of the page except when it is hovering over links.

It only happens in Firefox, not in Safari.


Expected results:

The busy arrow should only rotate as long as the page loads. When that's finished, it should stop rotating and display a normal mouse arrow.

Confirmed on windows7, CSS cursor style is staying as "progress".

However, The following UA[1] spoofing fixes this problem.
So. I guess this is the site problem.

[1] user_pref("general.useragent.override", "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/43.0.2357.65 Safari/537.36");

I can also reproduce on Windows
would be interesting to understand which part of the code is causing that

Actually, after an hard reload of the page (or clearing cache) I don't see the problem anymore, so likely some cached entity was broken.
Please reopen if that doesn't help.
