35718 - lokigames.com - [LAYER] JavaScript fails to display page (javaScript.showLayer())

Status: VERIFIED WONTFIX

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English US, defect, P3)

Description

[LinuxLover]

Go to LoKi website.  Click on 'Products' link (top right).  M14 will take you to
their products page (I believe it is www.lokigames.com/products).  But BuildID
[20000041205] only shows a blank page.

I have experienced other weired JavaScript errors too.  But this is by far the
most reproducable one.

Site relies on document.layers, document.all, or fails to detect client
correctly. See http://sites.netscape.net/ekrock/standards.html for details on
standards-compliance in Mozilla, and which proprietary features of NS 4.x and IE
will not be supported. 

Marking INVALID as per http://www.mozilla.org/newlayout/bugathon.html#layerbugs

[ekrock's old account (dead)]

Moving all [LAYER] bugs to Evangelism component for tracking and open-source
evangelism by mozilla community members of sites that need to upgrade to support 
web standards such as HTML 4.0 (instead of LAYER/ILAYER) and the W3C DOM
(instead of Nav4 document.layers[] or IE document.all()). Sites should be
lobbied to do the upgrade using the email templates that are linked to from
http://www.mozilla.org/newlayout/bugathon.html#layerbugs . When a site's owner
has confirmed receipt of the message requesting an upgrade, the bug should be
marked with the keyword evangelized to indicate that evangelism for that bug is
complete. When the site finishes the upgrade and supports standards, the bug
should be closed.

Reassigning Evangelism bugs to me, the component's new owner.  I would like to 
take this opportunity to thank [e-mail] for all of his dedication, 
contributions, and hard work, and wish him luck at his new job.  Thanks, nobody.

well, the pgae (http://www.lokigames.com) works with Mozilla 0.6 (win/linux).
Don't know if the page was recoded or Mozilla came to understand it..  A good
thing (TM) anyway :-)

So should I close the bug?

Comment 11

[Richard Zach]

This still uses document.layers--but at least it's usable now.
