127682 - signa.com - Can't enter the website

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English Other, defect)

Description

[Graham]

The front page at www.signa.com contains two links that should allow entrance to
the website: "Flash-Enhanced" and "Non-Flash". In Mozilla, clicking either link
has no effect. (I've been seeing this problem for months -- at the moment I am
using build 2002021006.)

I am setting OS = All because (at least for me) Mozilla exhibits the same
behaviour under Win95.

The page does work in IE5 under Win32.

However, I just tried it with Konqueror 2.2.2, and I can't enter the site with
that either. I expect the problem is in the website, not the browser. --> Tech
Evangelism, right?

I have already sent an email to [e-mail], complaining that their site
doesn't work with my favourite browser...

Confirmed

Script uses document.layers/improper browser sniffing:
    ns = (document.layers)? true:false;
    ie = (document.all)   ? true:false;

    function GoFlash()
    {
      if (ns)
      {
       
document.location="http://www.signa.com/Store/M_Home-SignaSpotLight.asp?cFL=1&Browser=NS";
      }
      if (ie)
      {
       
document.location="http://www.signa.com/Store/M_Home-SignaSpotLight.asp?cFL=1&Browser=IE";
      }
    }

      function GoFlashless()
    {
      if (ns)
      {
       
document.location="http://www.signa.com/Store/M_Home-SignaSpotLight.asp?cFL=0&Browser=NS";
      }
      if (ie)
      {
       
document.location="http://www.signa.com/Store/M_Home-SignaSpotLight.asp?cFL=0&Browser=IE";
      }
