227066 - latinchat.com - Enter key does not work on a chat site

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: Spanish, defect)

Description

[Francisco León]

This is probably a badly coded webpage.

Go to latinchat.com

Choose any country on the right (paises y ciudades)

Then choose any nick in "escribe tu nickname" and choose any country, and hit
"entrar"

Make sure you aren't blocking popups.

The page will load telling "por favor espere" (please wait) and it should load a
new window with the chat in (an orange window)

The chat page loads and looks fine, but the enter key does not work.

I get javascript errors:

Error: s is not defined
Source File: http://login.latinchat.com/chatclient
Line: 18

Error: document.all has no properties
Source File: http://disp04.latinchat.com/img/funcions.js
Line: 411

That linea reads:

function selectClass()
{
	if(document.all['UserPrefs'].name)
	{
        	document.all['UserPrefs'].className = "UserPrefsIE";
	}

}

So i guess this is bad code.

The next one when pressing enter or clicking the "enviar" button:
Error: parent.tabs_frame.tabs_applet has no properties

Francisco is correct; the site is using IE-only syntax.
