218934 - Many items on eBay have clickable thumbnails images that don't work under Mozilla.

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Thomas Wolf]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5b) Gecko/20030910
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5b) Gecko/20030910

On eBay, thumbnail images of an item can be clicked to see a larger version of
the image without reloading the page.  This hasn't worked for weeks in Mozilla
(or ever? I can't be certain) - no Javascript errors or anything obvious -
clicking on the clickable image (the cursor does change to indicate that it's a
hyperlink) just doesn't appear to do anything.  It works under Netscape 4.7 and
IE 6.0.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Just go to above link
2. Click on one of the smaller images on that page


Actual Results:  
nothing

Expected Results:  
Replace the large image with the smaller one that you clicked on.

When I click on the thumbnail there is a small delay while the big image is
fetched, then the big image is shown (Win98 Mozilla 1.5b build).

It works for me in the 9/10 build on Win XP.  You are aware it is not a pop-up
image you should expect?  It just changes the image in the large box next to the
thumbnails.

wfm with win2k build 20030911..

This is odd that it works for you guys.  I just went back to the URL and it
definitely doesn't work for me - I'm running build 2003091004 on win2k.  It also
doesn't work at home, where I'm running WinXP (also a recent build - I think the
official 1.5beta load.)
Is there some security option that might be set incorrectly?  I looked under the
privacy/security tab on the browser but didn't see anything obvious (e.g. I
allow all image loading and "unwanted popups"; javascript is enabled for the
browser...)

I guess I'll next try totally uninstalling/re-installing Mozilla.  Maybe it's some
corruption from overlaying versions.

Do you allow changing images under "Preferences > Advanced > Scripts & Plugins"?

Oh boy, do I feel stupid now.  You're right!  Sorry everyone for filing this
"bug".  Changing bug status to invalid.
