303304 - javascript error when clicking submit button

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect)

Description

[R.K.Aa.]

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050803
SeaMonkey/1.0a

Search buttons at vg.no no longer work.
Works OK in trunk Mozilla suite 2005070205

To reproduce:

Go to http://vg.no/
Top right there are two buttons below eachother, labeled "søk"
They normally submit the search term
(The search engine itself is down today due to problems after a power outage
some days agi, but that is irrelevant - just means the search will spin forever
without error message)
Enter some search term, hit "søk" button:

Result: Nada - just an error message:

Error: sok is not defined
Source File: javascript:sok.submit()
Line: 1

I reinstalled trunk 2005070205 to see if it worked there today, and it submitted
 OK. Installed Seamonkey 20050803 again and it fails again.

Regression between 2005073013 and 2005073111.

The only relevant checkin in that window was for bug 296639.

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

Regressions should block the bug that caused them, not depend on it.

Comment 4

[Johnny Stenback (:jst)]

Works in todays nightly build. Marking WORKSFORME.

Comment 5

[shutdown]

FYI, this bug is fixed by bug 303420.
