What it looks like in Mozilla
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; da-DK; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030507

I told them, but they insist noone is using Mozilla. They check for browser
version, but only to ask people to download MSIE 6 or NN 6 - which doesn't work
either, I don't actually get that message but I see it in the source!
The source as it appears to Mozilla:

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Just click on one of the game types (i.e. "Den Lange") in the blue menu line.
2. Middle of page is blank
Actual Results:
Cannot gamble.
Expected Results:
Displayed a menu from which to place bettings. A lot of check boxes.
It used to work! Mozilla 1.3 made minor bugs though, so I told them. Maybe it's
the browser check that messes up things?
They suck.
They don't like people who doesn't use MSIE and their odds are too low!

Hey... I'm a newbie to this so please don't be harsh on me if I didn't report
this properly. I did search the bug db and the bug MAY be there allready - but
not in words I understand. Also, this MAY not be a bug, but a case of Mozilla
harassment.

Confirming bug with Mozilla 2003051508 on WinNT4.0.
Reassigning to Browser-General for greater exposure.
Benno: if I click on "Den Lange" more than once, either in IE6
or Mozilla, I see this message highlighted in red in the center:
"Der er ingen kampe i denne spillerunde, der passer til dit valg.
Vælg venligst en anden mulighed fra listen ovenfor."
What does that mean? Thanks -

The text informs there's "no active games for your choice because of your
selection" - which is very weird because the default selection is any game. They
must have a problem since you can reproduce that in MSIE. Also, it seems the
other games (i.e. "Vinderen") are somewhat working - they all produce a layout
of checkboxes using some JavaScript?!
But I just get a blank center of the page. Therefore I just reinstalled Mozilla
1.3 DK and got the red message. I installed again 1.4b and get nothing...

OK, here is the URL for the central frame. It is the white-and-orange
table in the screenshot Benno provided in Comment #2 (via IE):
https://games.tips.dk/DTCF/LNGN_getProgram.do?game=OPEN&sport=ALL
If you enter this in IE6, you see the table. But Mozilla displays
only a blank page, with these errors in the JavaScript Console:
Error: double is a reserved identifier
Source File: https://games.tips.dk/DTCF/games/LNGN/scr.js
Line: 42, Column: 6

Oops, I accidentally left out one more error:
Error: rest_m is not defined

Note: the errors involving |parent.control| are not important.
Such errors will occur whenever you load a frame independently.
The real problem is the site's use of the keyword |double|
as a variable name. That is a reserved word in JavaScript:
see http://www.mozilla.org/js/language/E262-3.pdf, Sect 7.5.3.
Mozilla correctly raises an error, and that error causes JavaScript
execution to a halt. That results in other errors afterwards, such
as this one from above:
Error: cpr is not defined
Source File: https://games.tips.dk/DTCF/LNGN_getProgram.do?game=OPEN&sport=ALL
Line: 311
The function cpr() is present in the file, but is not successfully
defined because of the |double| error that occurred earlier.
To prove this, I will attach a modified version of the central frame.
I have placed all JavaScript in-line, and replaced |double| with |doubleX|.
I also had to provide extra escaping in their debugInit() function.
That is, I changed this line:
sHtml += "</script>\n";
with: sHtml += "<\/script\>\n";
This is another mistake in the JavaScript. End-script tags must always
be escaped when they are provided via document.write(). Otherwise, the
HTML parser sees the end-script tag, ending the script block at that spot.
Finally, I removed all references to the |parent| object,
since we are loading the frame as an independent page; and I
commented out this line:
document.domain="tips.dk";
I will attach this modified file below -

SUMMARY:
Mozilla cannot load the site's central frame, given in Comment #5.
But with the |double| and "</script>" mistakes corrected, Mozilla
can load the modified file just fine.
Reassigning to Evangelism, so the site can be contacted about this -

I should note, the "</script>" error above only occurs because I placed
all the sites's JavaScript in-line in my attachment, for editing purposes.
It shouldn't be a problem in the actual site, since that line is part
of an external JS file: https://games.tips.dk/DTCF/games/LNGN/scr.js.
As such, the HTML parser shouldn't see it, so it shouldn't be a problem.
The real problem here is the site's use of a reserved word, |double|,
as a variable name. This variable is declared in the central frame,
and used in the external JS file:
https://games.tips.dk/DTCF/LNGN_getProgram.do?game=OPEN&sport=ALL
https://games.tips.dk/DTCF/games/LNGN/scr.js
That causes the principal error we saw in Comment #5 above.
Mozilla will throw an error on the use of any reserved word as
a JavaScript identifier name. The site can simply change |double|
to |_double| in both of these files, and the error will go away.
For a list of all reserved words, see the specification from ECMA:
http://www.mozilla.org/js/language/E262-3.pdf, Sections 7.5.1 - 7.5.3.

They still haven't fixed it.
Today I talked to some guy on the phone because my account was locked. This
happened because I tried to log on in IE and couldn't remember the last
character of my password - because I used Mozillas password manager when I made
my account and paid the 200 Dkr.
He told me the password remembering feature of IE is disabled on their site.
But, interestingly, not to Mozilla.

I wrote an e-mail to tips.dk about the problem.. here is the answer:
-- Danish --
Vi har løbende set en udvikling i brugen af Mozilla og er desværre godt klar
over at siden ikke kan bruges optimatlt af Mozillabrugere og at man ikke kan
spille via Mozilla.
Detrfor vil vi i efteråret med stor sandsynlighed påbegynde et
udviklingsarbejde, der sigter mod en egentlig implementering af Mozilla på
tips.dk. Dette er endnu ikke fastlagt og jeg kan derfor ikke give dig et mere
præcist svar.
-- end --
-- English translation --
We have seen a development in the use of Mozilla and know that the site can't be
viewed optimal by Mozilla users and that you can't play using Mozilla.
Because of this, we will most likely start in the fall to implement Mozilla on
tips.dk. This haven't yet been planned, so I can't give you a more precise answer.
-- End --

I havae just bought a game of Lotto with joker on tips.dk using Firefox 1.5.0.1 - so they might have fixed the problems they had. Can anyone confirm this? What about other games than Lotto?

INCOMPLETE due to lack of activity since the end of 2009.
If someone is willing to investigate the issues raised in this bug to determine whether they still exist, *and* work with the site in question to fix any existing issues, please feel free to re-open and assign to yourself.
Sorry for the bugspam; filter on "NO MORE PRE-2010 TE BUGS" to remove.
