670086 - etsy.com uses deprecated (now removed) DOM File APIs.

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English US, defect)

Description

[Johnny Stenback (:jst)]

If you're a seller on etsy.com you won't be able to upload photos for a new listing with Firefox 7 or current trunk. This is due to us removing support for old non-standard DOM File APIs (in bug 661876). The specific APIs they seem to be using are .fileName, .fileSize, and .getAsBinary().

Unfortunately I don't know of a way to show this problem w/o having an account on etsy so that you're able to upload images to a new listing for something you're about to sell, but I believe this description is enough to track this issue with developers at etsy.com.

And for the record, the replacement for the removed non-standard APIs are as follows:

f.fileName => .name
f.fileSize => .size
f.getAsBinary() => reader = new FileReader(); reader.readAsBinary(f);
