733447 - groups.google.com (mobile) - "Show quoted text" links on threads do not expand the hidden text

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Web Compatibility :: Site Reports, defect)

Description

[Ed Morley [:emorley]]

Galaxy S2, Android 2.3.4, Fennec Native Nightly 13.0a1 2012-03-06

1) Go to https://groups.google.com/forum/m/#!topic/mozilla.dev.tree-management/oPLq7LW9iQw
2) Tap on the "show quoted text" link to expand the hidden text.

Expected Results:
Hidden text is shown, like on desktop.

Actual Results:
Tapping does nothing, no visible change to page.

Not sure if tech evang or a Fennec Native issue, filing in general for now.

Note:

Directly opening the step #1 URL seems to not work sometimes, in which case going to https://groups.google.com/forum/m/#!forum/mozilla.dev.tree-management and then clicking the thread from there is necessary. Make sure to pick a thread that has multiple posts, so that the "show quoted text" link is shown.

I can reproduce on desktop Nightly too.

Comment 3

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

Given the url in comment 0, I can also reproduce the "clicking does nothing" behavior in Chrome, Safari, and Opera.

As far as I can tell, the website is just broken.  Am I missing something?

Comment 4

[Ed Morley [:emorley]]

Ah, true. Sorry, should have checked the mobile site on desktop browsers too.

Moving to TE.

Well - equally broken in all browsers? :-)
I don't think we have the resources to be a general Web QA department.. But I pinged a person who might pass on information about this problem anyway:

I'd like to close it as invalid to get it out of our stats though. If anyone disagrees, please feel free to re-open.
