622217 - Extending String.prototype DNW

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 610973

(Core :: JavaScript Engine, defect)

Description

[Erik Vold]

When I use the html file here: https://gist.github.com/760601 in any browser any version, other than Minefield it works fine, when I use the file in Minefield however I get the following error:

"".erik is not a function
http://localhost:8500/mvapp-dev/testII.html
Line 8

If I then type the following code into the Firebug Console:
alert(typeof "".erik)

Then the alert is "function" which is expected.. so I'm very confused why I get the error above..

That file works fine for me.  What build are you seeing the problem in?  Do you still see the problem if you disable or uninstall Firebug?

Dup, seems to me, reopen if I marked over-hastily.
