Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 133214

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: Hebrew, defect)

Description

[rn23]

Rolling JavaScript in ynet.co.il on top right, just under the banner, isn't shown.
Compare with IE {4|5|5.5|6} or Netscape {4.*}.

Can't see where this comes from exactly, but site uses many document.all
As this is a Tech Evangelism, it might be either dupe of bug 122565 or depend on
it ?

I understand what 122565 is about. Although it's the same page, I am not sure 
it's related. The problem there, is that messages are not opened when clicked. 
The forum page there holds all the message headers+text, but the text is 
hidden until clicked, and is shown using JS. The problem here, is that the 
whole application doesn't work. It might be related, but I guess it needs 
further investigation as for the actual cause.

As for me, the JS isn't write for Mozilla... Probably based on poor old dynduo.

The changing text at the top is not created by JavaScript;
it is a Shockwave Flash movie. I get this error in 

  Mozilla > Tools > Web Development > JavaScript Console:

Error: flashObj has no properties
Source File:
http://pbid.pro-market.net/engine?site=317+space=86+page='8'+size=68+position=m+
distinct+rnd=(2498811807105269779)+linktarget='_blank'
Line: 28


Amazingly, the Flash movie shows perfectly if we open the site
in the Mozilla DOM Inspector! Just try it:

    Tools > Web Development > DOM Inspector

(Assuming you have the Flash plug-in installed)

Oops, you meant the scrolling text in the upper-right,
UNDER the banner ad; let me look at that now - 

Comment 7

[Phil Schwartau]

The "missing" part of the page is an <iframe> which has this as a SRC:
http://www.ynet.co.il/Ext/Comp/Ticker/Dhtml_Ticker/0,10016,184,00.html

Load this in IE6 and it works fine (look to the right to see the text).
But it doesn't work in Mozilla. The reason: 

if (document.all)
{
  document.write('<marquee direction=up scrollAmount=1   
                   style=width:115;height:126><table

                        etc. etc.  

                 </marquee>')
}



I don't see any codepath for Mozilla; that's why nothing shows up
Reassigning to Tech Evangelism -
