862090 - Javascript Errors due to Optimizely being broken

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English Other, defect)

Description

[Darryn]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_8_3) AppleWebKit/537.31 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/26.0.1410.65 Safari/537.31

Steps to reproduce:

Nothing


Actual results:

Basically, on our client's website whiskygalore.co.nz some of the javascript files aren't being read:

[09:56:53.275] TypeError: C.style is undefined @ http://cdn.optimizely.com/js/107286790.js:43
[09:56:53.347] TypeError: m.style is undefined @ http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0098/6782/t/10/assets/modernizr.js?2124:4
[09:56:53.501] TypeError: invalid 'in' operand style @ http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0098/6782/t/10/assets/jquery-1.9.1.js?2124:6643

Which is causing the Flexslider jquery to break. I tested on pretty much every other browser but FF20 (and FF21b) is the only browser it breaks in.


Expected results:

The slider should work and the javascript files shouldn't through errors.

Darryn, optimizely does browser-sniffing and runs code only in Firefox that happens to be broken.  Please do contact them and ask them to fix it.  They claimed they had done so, but clearly that's not the case.  :(

And in particular, see analysis in bug 824301.
