645504 - google.com/maps does not load/hangs NS_ERROR_DOM_SECURITY_ERR window.localStorage

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[bugreporter33]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US) AppleWebKit/534.16 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/10.0.648.204 Safari/534.16
Build Identifier: 


www.googlemaps.com. Page appears with North America but no other actions occur.  Get slow/ not loading message when click on map.  The apparently new control on right side of map that starts out with "traffic" for me (in other browsers) and has drop downs is blank and can't get a drop down so I'm guessing there is a bug/interaction with that control that is hanging the page.  Maps that don't contain that control (like from other site mashups) work fine.  

The bug also prevents the google copyright notice and terms of use link from appearing, bottom right of map 3/26/11

What version of SeaMonkey are you using?

Go to about:config
Filter for dom.storage.enabled
make sure that this preference is enabled.

Comment 2

[bugreporter33]

Seamonkey 2.0.13
dom.storage.enabled = true

I also removed all plugins to test.  And if memory serves, perhaps this started with an update in the last week or so (?)

Ah in that case please retest with SeaMonkey in -safe-mode.
Instructions here:

Comment 4

[bugreporter33]

safe mode yields same results.

Comment 5

[Philip Chee]

when SeaMonkey 2.1 comes out (Some time in April/May) please retest. SeaMonkey 2.0 uses the Firefox 3.5 gecko engine and may be a bit too old to support dom storage properly.

Comment 6

What browser are you using?

WFM.

Not seeing any issue on my end.
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.20pre) Gecko/20110514 SeaMonkey/2.0.15pre

With the North America map displaying, I can double-click (or use the mouse wheel) to zoom in to a particular region.  The zoom-bar & other displayed options work likewise.

Again no problem here.

If I enter '650 Castro Street, Mountain View, CA' as a search selection, select street view, I find a nondescript building with a bunch of jalopies parked in front?
