417962 - [IE7] JavaScript error switching to non-summary graph view

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

Error: 'plotSelection.summary.downloads.availableDates' is null or not an object

I'm sorry that IE doesn't provide the source file for the error, but it shouldn't be hard to figure out from the error. 

The drop-down works (although it's not horizontally aligned correctly) but upon selecting any item other than "Summary", you get the above error (with slightly different names in the middle part).

Indeed, some debugging puts the error at:

https://preview.addons.mozilla.org/js/stats/plots.js @ line 236/238

The problem is that plotSelection.summary.downloads and plotSelection.summary.updatepings are undefined. If I set both to {} at the point the error occurs, the graph then appears to function happily for the most part.

It actually looks like plotSelection.* are all broken when it arrives there, as each property seems to be an object (e.g. plotSelection.summary is an object) but none of them have any (enumerable) properties.

I got a bit lost in the code, though, and didn't find where, when or why they have no data. :(
