The error console spews lots of:

Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Could not convert JavaScript argument arg 0 [nsIXSLTProcessor.transformToFragment]"  nsresult: "0x80570009 (NS_ERROR_XPC_BAD_CONVERT_JS)"  location: "JS frame :: http://eu.wowarmory.com/_js/armory.js :: anonymous :: line 783"  data: no]

xeromorph, When did you start noticing this? Does this happen with an earlier version of trunk?

Comment 3

[xeromorph]

all the way from approximately 4.0b3 or so. Just didn't have much time to submit

Rescinding blocking request. It's not a recent regression. We'll see if someone can evaluate the error message here for severity.

I think this is Site issue,

Clear Cache (Tools > Options > > Advanced > General > Clear Now)
And UA spoofing as follows  solves the issue.

Create "general.useragent.override" and set it to
"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:2.0b5pre) Gecko/20100826 Firefox/3.6.13"

Re-clearing nom, I suspect Alice renom'd accidentally. 

Juan, given that UA spoofing fixes things, this might be INVALID?

Comment 7

[juan becerra [:juanb]]

Resolving as invalid. There seems to be a problem with the site itself.

Comment 8

[Brendan Eich [:brendan]]

Shouldn't this bug reopen and morph into a TE bug? Else file one?

Filed bug 610059 in the Tech Evangelism product.

Comment 10

[juan becerra [:juanb]]

Re-opening. I don't know how often tech evangelism bugs get triaged.

Comment 11

[Brendan Eich [:brendan]]

If there's no bug in our code, this is INVALID and the TE bug is valid. That's why it is ok to morph when we prove a bug filed against our code turns out to be due to a website content mistake. But since you filed the new bug, may as well let this one rest in peace as INVALID.
