56466 - passo.de - show|hide layer functions not working

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: German, defect, P3)

Description

[Andreas Buschka]

Navigate to

http://www.passo.de

Netscape 4.7 and IE display the start page correctly, while Mozilla claims that
there is an infinite loop condition.

Seeing this with Mac OS 9.0.4, Moz trunk build 2000101215.  Initial page does
*not* load, reload will miss the apparent splash page.

After entering the above URL in the address bar, Mozilla went to:
file:///Macintosh%20HD/Test/mozilla-mac-Mtrunk/chrome/packages/core/redirect_loop.xul

and locked that browser window up.  Oddly enough, I could still command-N to
open another browser window to report this bug.

*whoops*

initial browser window did *not*, repeat *not* lock up, Mozilla merely displayed
above local file as a blank page.  Sorry for the confusion factor.

[Blake Ross]

-> [e-mail] for my evangelism bugs.

removing the now-depreciated evangelism-related keywords.

setting platform to All.

Comment 6

[Péter Bajusz]

Anyone knows why this bug marked [LAYER] and put on evangelism?
Layer tags are the cause of "infinite loop detected"?????
It must be a mistake...
If I load the page in Nav4 it redirects to a page, that DOES render in mozilla.
(It looks bad because of layers, but that's NOT what this bug was about.)

I have another URL that generates "infinite loop detected".
It is http://www.ebolt.hu/
That site has no layers.
Should I file another bug for it?

Comment 7

[Zach Lipton [:zach]]

This needs a testcase! If we can make the error happen without layer or 
other junk, then it it is bug.

Comment 8

[Andreas M. "Clarence" Schneider]

Works for me. 2001-04-15-20, Win NT.

[Blake Ross]

Reassigning evangelism bugs to [e-mail].

Comment 12

[z-aillon.c-obsolete2]

Moving to new component "West Europe".  European component is being removed. 
See bug 95808 for details.

Comment 13

[Doron Rosenberg (IBM)]

They use serverside sniffing and give us layers

Comment 14

[Kai Lahmann (is there, where MNG is)]

no visible problem. Paged changed since it's now Vodafone I guess

Comment 15

[Doron Rosenberg (IBM)]

please compare to IE or 4.x :)

havefix :
- fist they need to send gecko browser the IE version, not the NS4 one.
- then they need to modify their scripts to be dom-compliant.
im attaching a script.js file with fixes for each function.

Comment 17

[Mathieu Pillard [:mat]]

here is the fix :

function updateActiveArea(name)
{
	if (document.all)
	{
		for (flag = 0; flag < itemLength; flag++)
		{
			id = "div" + flag; 
			document.all[id].style.visibility = "hidden";
		}
		document.all["div"+name].style.visibility = "visible";
	}
	else if (document.layers)
	{
		for (flag = 0; flag < itemLength; flag++)
		{
			document.layers["container"].document.layers[flag].visibility = "hide";
		}
		document.layers["container"].document.layers[name].visibility = "show";
	}
	else if (document.getElementById)
	{
		for (flag = 0; flag < itemLength; flag++)
		{
			id = "div" + flag;
			document.getElementById(id).style.visibility = "hidden";
		}
		document.getElementById("div" + name).style.visibility = "visible";
	}
	return true;
}


/* ......... */

if (document.all) 
	document.all["div0"].style.visibility = "visible";
else if (document.getElementById)
	document.getElementById("div0").style.visibility = "visible";
