140735 - Cannot complete the sell procedure on eBay

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 135912

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: Italian, defect)

Description

[Paolo Maero]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.0rc1)
Gecko/20020417
BuildID:    2002041712

When I try to sell something on eBay (currently on the Italian eBay site, but I
suppose that are all the same) I get stucked on the phase 3 of 5 panel, where
the "continue" button does not function at all. I can push the button but
nothing happens. The other phases (1 and 2) panels, with a similar "continue"
button work fine.
The button is connected in some way to an "...ISAPI.dll", meaning the site is
controled by a Microsoft IIS HTTP server. Does this mean that Mozilla will never
function with MS IIS sites?
This error happened from the first Mozilla version I've used, 0.9.7, up to now,
with version 1.0 RC1, the same way, without any change.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enter www.ebay.it
2. Try to sell something
3. At phase 3 of 5 panel the "continue" button never works

Actual Results:  The problem is that I have to switch to MS Internet Explorer to
sell something in eBay. I've never tested with Nestcape or Opera. I'll try to do
it with Opera asap.

Expected Results:  Handle the "continue" button correctly. This is actually the
only "blocking" problem that prevents me from deleting MS IE from my system!

You could do the following to fix this (Not the ideal solution but better than
using IE)

add to your prefs.js the following:

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.0+) Gecko/20020511 Netscape6/6.2

Sorry I forgot something, of course you have to add exactly this:

user_pref("general.useragent.override", "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US;
rv:1.0.0+) Gecko/20020511 Netscape6/6.2");

and it has to be all in one Line.
