Error console popup (potential bug)

Post by hceylan »

Hello,

we're about to launch our new site. However one problem with firefox keeps us from launching it yet.

We have a calendar on the home page. As you navigate to different months, firefox automatically pops up error console.

Can someone comment on the issue?

Not without seeing the code and if Firefox is showing an error console your may very well be doing something wrong.

Do you have the Web Developers Tools?

I'm using javascript to update a div from a jsp. Error console is poping up but not displaying any new error. Errors are the ones that are created from css.

you may try to see it for yourself.

go to www2.biletix.com. in the homepage navigate to a different month from the calendar.

By the way I do have webdeveloper extension. Do you ask to use it to diagnose the problem? Or do you think iwebdeveloper causes to console popup? If later, errror console pops up on installations where there is no extensions as well..

Yes the webdeveloper extension has an option to automatically popup the JavaScript Error Console in case of an error.
You can check that setting by clicking the options button on the toolbar:
Toolbar: Options > Miscellaneous

Hello dickvl,

Sorry, then I don't know what is causing it.

That's because of this code:

Code: Select all

<a href="javascript:" onclick="gostertakvim(10)">

You (or the web coder) specified both "href" and "onclick", and moreover... the href link is just a plain "javascript:" which cause the console window opened up.

Edit: code not displayed correctly
