Do we know if this is just user-agent sniffing?

Try going into about:config and changing

general.useragent.extra.firefox

to

Firefox/3.0.10

and see if it works then?

Comment 2

[amir.spamable]

No it doesnt work even if we change the useragent to Firefox/3.0.10

Comment 3

[Mike Beltzner [:beltzner, not reading bugmail]]

Any errors in the error console or indication what, specifically isn't working? If you set javascript.options.jit.content to false does it work?

(I don't have accounts so I can't check for you)

and naturally setting the jit to false doesnt make any diffrence. If i check logs/scraps with firefox 3.0.10 there are no errors on console

--> Core::JavaScript Engine with associated blocking nomination carried over.

When I try this (on orkut, don't have a deployed Google App Engine app) this is what happens:

1. Go to http://www.orkut.com
2. Login
3. Click on "Scrapbook" across the top

 - no page content
 - error console shows

4. Refresh page

 - content shows up
 - error console shows

Error: c[if_Fa] is not a function
Source File: http://static3.orkut.com/js/gen/gtalk_client022.js
Line: 25

Error: Permission denied for <http://talkgadget.google.com> to call method Location.toString on <http://www.orkut.com>.

Looks like there's some permission error when it's trying to instantiate the Google Talk object?

Amir: does content show up on the Google App Engine page if you refresh, as well?

Comment 6

[amir.spamable]

Hey Mike!

You are right, refreshing the orkut page shows scraps...but this should be
fixed i suppose.


With App eninge, refreshing has no effect. The tree node is not oppened even
after F5(Refresh)

Comment 7

[Mike Shaver (:shaver emeritus)]

Does it work with b3? Can we get a regression range on 1.9.1, and then ideally on tm?

Comment 8

[amir.spamable]

As long as i remember it never worked with 3.1 branch..... hence 1.9.1 is to be blame probably......

Comment 9

[Mike Shaver (:shaver emeritus)]

Boy, we sure do need a regression range here...

Comment 10

[(mostly gone) XtC4UaLL [:xtc4uall]]

- i can reproduce the blank orkut scrapbook page with Fx 3.5b4 release only, not with latest 1.9.1 branch nor trunk nightly
- for the "Error: c[if_Fa] is not a function" (what you also get on http://www.orkut.com/Main#Home.aspx) the regrange is:

http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/pushloghtml?startdate=2008-07-21+03%3A00&enddate=2008-07-22+03%3A00

with
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1a1pre) Gecko/2008072103 Minefield/3.1a1pre ID:2008072103
only producing
Error: Permission denied to call method Location.toString

and 
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1a1pre) Gecko/2008072203 Minefield/3.1a1pre ID:2008072203
producing
Error: Permission denied to call method Location.toString
Error: c[if_Fa] is not a function
Source file: http://static3.orkut.com/js/gen/gtalk_client022.js
Line: 25

still searching for the range of the other errors mentioned in comment 4 & comment 5 ...

Comment 11

[(mostly gone) XtC4UaLL [:xtc4uall]]

ok, if you set
- general.useragent.extra.firefox to Firefox/3.0.10
in
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1a1pre) Gecko/2008072203 Minefield/3.1a1pre ID:2008072203
- login to orkut (-> http://www.orkut.com/Main#Home.aspx)
- do a search in the top right search box
- then click on the "Scrapbook" link at the very top
you get all the errors mentioned in comment 4/comment 5.

with 2008072103 you just get the permission message (what you get on 1.9.0 branch as well).

so the regrange is the one from comment 10 and there's seems to some user agent sniffing thingy going on...

Comment 12

[(mostly gone) XtC4UaLL [:xtc4uall]]

@reporter: can you please verify the regrange using google apps engine dashboard by testing
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/2008/07/2008-07-21-03-mozilla-central/
and
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/2008/07/2008-07-22-03-mozilla-central/

Comment 13

[amir.spamable]

Just tested it with the above, app eninge dashboard logs works perfectly fine. There is not error on console.....

Comment 14

[Robert Sayre]

Could really use some QA help here, to see whether it works.

Comment 15

[Robert Sayre]

and

Comment 16

[(mostly gone) XtC4UaLL [:xtc4uall]]

well, if you set general.useragent.extra.firefox to "Firefox/3.5" (the UA of the final release) using Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1b5pre) Gecko/20090519 Shiretoko/3.5b5pre ID:20090519043912 and the steps from comment 11 it's still there => TE bug? orkut is quite popular in brasil.

Comment 17

[Robert Sayre]

yep, I see it. occurs with or without jit.

Comment 18

[Andreas Gal :gal]

upvar?

Comment 19

[(mostly gone) XtC4UaLL [:xtc4uall]]

(In reply to comment #18)
> upvar?

well, the range i got (see comment 10) implicates other causes since it's from 07/2008.

Any idea which changeset in that hook is to blame?

Comment 22

[Joel Maher ( :jmaher ) (UTC -8)]

I am not sure what we are looking for here.  I took a look at this and saw the problem in these releases:
3.1b2 - ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/3.1b2 (20081201)
3.1b2 - ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/3.1b3
3.1b4 - ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/3.1b4

I did not see the problem on the latest nightly (both mac and linux):
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9.1b5pre) Gecko/20090520 Shiretoko/3.5b5pre

I also did not see the problem in the these early 3.1 releases:
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/shiretoko/alpha1
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/shiretoko/alpha2 (20080829071937)
3.1b1 - ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/3.1b1 (20081007)


so I am seeing something between 20081007-20081201 for the regressions range which is much different than the previous comments indicate.  Something isn't lining up here.

Comment 23

[Tim Riley [:timr]]

I see the bug where the scrapbook page is empty with B4 and with the first time I used the latest nightly.  But I cannot repro this in the nightly anymore. Sometimes back button clears the error, sometime not.  reloading button always seems to clear the problem. Same errors as others:

  Error: uncaught exception: com.google.gwt.core.client.JavaScriptException:   
  (TypeError): c[if_Fa] is not a function

Bug seen here:
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9.1b4) Gecko/20090423 Firefox/3.5b4

Bug seen here once, but then not reproducible here:
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9.1b5pre) Gecko/20090520 Shiretoko/3.5b5pre

I'll be around for the next couple hours if any help is needed getting a regression range (any platform) or for help testing.

Comment 24

[Tim Riley [:timr]]

Reproducible with B4 on Win XP:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1b4) Gecko/20090423 Firefox/3.5b4

Status bar at bottom left is different every time.  First time, veeeery slow "waiting for www.orkut.com", "waiting for csi.gstatic.com", hung there.  2nd time immediately says "Done".  3rd+ time no status.  Same error every time:

  Error: uncaught exception: com.google.gwt.core.client.JavaScriptException: 
  (TypeError): c[if_Fa] is not a function

Works fine (no blank screen) on latest nightly:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1b5pre) Gecko/20090520 Shiretoko/3.5b5pre

Comment 25

[Jason Orendorff [:jorendorff]]

No blank screen, but (at least on orkut) there are still errors in the console that don't happen in 3.0.

This could be something silly.  Looking into it anyway...

Comment 26

[Mike Beltzner [:beltzner, not reading bugmail]]

Jason: if the errors are non-fatal, do we still think that this needs to block?

Comment 27

[Jason Orendorff [:jorendorff]]

Not our bug.  It's a silly bug in the script.

Comment 28

[Jason Orendorff [:jorendorff]]

Basically, the script only expects WebKit to support querySelectorAll.  Since we are a non-WebKit browser that supports querySelectorAll, we break their script.

Details: They have a function that searches the DOM; it returns either an NodeList (if querySelectorAll is supported) or a plain old Array (otherwise).  This is sound feature testing, so far so good.  But the code that calls that function depends on a vendor test rather than examining the object to see if it's an Array.  It's essentially,

  c = searchForNodes(...);
  if (isWebKit)
      ...treat c like a NodeList...
  else
      ...c[if_Fa](...)...

The variable if_Fa is "concat".  It's calling c.concat(...), assuming incorrectly that c is an Array.

given comment 28 it is Bug 416317. so comment 16 is assuming correctly that this is a TE bug & should be moved to that component (rather than just invalid)?

Comment 30

Yes, TE.

Do we have any contacts at Orkut?

Comment 32

[amir.spamable]

Does not work with the new version either(preview version 99)

Comment 33

[Brendan Eich [:brendan]]

I happened to mention this bug to Erik Arvidsson and he said it was fixed. Perhaps not yet deployed?

Comment 34

[amir.spamable]

Hey,

I recently tried out firefox 3.5 rc2 it looks quite stable and good. It seems to have resolved the issue with orkut but issue with google app engine dashboard remains. I hope it will be fixed before final release.!
