579204 - Error message from Google when accessing or creating word processing google docs document

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Al Billings [:abillings - ex-MoCo]]

I have documents on Google Docs that have been created using the new version of Google's "Document" application. When trying to access them with nightly trunk builds, such as Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:2.0b2pre) Gecko/20100715 Minefield/4.0b2pre, I get an error message from Google stating:

"The bad news is that Google Docs has just encountered an error.
The good news is that you've helped us find a bug, which we are now looking into."

If I go to them in older Firefox or Chrome or Safari, I can edit the document without problems.

The same thing happens when I try to create a new document, which would be the simplest STR.

1. go to http://docs.google.com/
2. select the "create new" dropdown on the upper left
3. choose "Document"

Result: error message from Google

This also happens when opening a new Drawing.  The other products (spreadsheet, presentation, Form) seem to open just fine.

Also on Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:2.0b2pre) Gecko/20100715 Minefield/4.0b2pre.

This was a Google bug, not FF's one.

I can no longer reproduce.
