Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Firefox :: General, enhancement)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317 Firefox/1.0.2

In this page at www.fbclloyd.org/youth/youth.html, there should be data being
displayed in the Events category, such as the date and event.  The web page is
designed to read the data from a text file on the server.  The text files do not
appear in the Page Info.  I have programmed this page using embedded objects and
the datasrc tag, as shown on
http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/databind/data_binding.asp, as well as
pages on this site that give further information.  This coding works in Internet
Explorer.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to the website www.fbclloyd.org/youth/youth.html
2. Click on the Events tab at the top

Actual Results:  
No data was shown

Expected Results:  
It should have read from the text file, and displayed the data on the screen.

This bug still exists after playing around with the JavaScript settings in Firefox

This is IE only stuff, and not implemented in Mozilla. Therefore the broken page.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
