Uncaught exception thrown when grid accessed in Firefox

Hi karl,

Please let me know what is your email address at riendy@intersoftpt.com? I will send you the nightly build 431.

In my sample with build 431, there is no Exception error. In error console, I got a warning in style which will be ignored by the browser. Is this the uncaught exception which you meant ?

Regards.

A few things:

1) Can you tell me how to obtain the nightly builds?

2) We are using version 7.0.7200.430

3) I may have been a little unclear about the issue in the original post: the grid appears to load without any problems but because the exception is uncaught, none of the rest of the javascript on the page that happens to be after the grid initialization will be excecuted. You can determine whether or not the uncaught exception is thrown by opening the Error Console in Firefox and checking for that specific error after navigating to your test page.

Hi Karl,

I tested a WebGrid sample using nightly build version 7.0.7200.431 in Firefox 5.0 and it runs well on my end. Is it possible for you to apply this nightly build to your project ?
If the error still occur, please let me know the scenario of your WebGrid. It is help me to trace down the issue.

Thank you.

We are trying to add support for non-IE browsers to our application, but when we open a page in Firefox 5.0 with WebGrid version 7.0.7200.430 on it, the following uncaught exception is thrown in IEMozBridge.js:Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "The container of an boundary-point of a range is being set to either a node of an invalid type or a node with an ancestor of an invalid type." code: "2" nsresult: "0x805c0002 (NS_ERROR_DOM_RANGE_INVALID_NODE_TYPE_ERR)" location: "http://localhost/EncompassWebLayer/ISRes.axd?F/IEMozBridge.js/305000771 Line: 7"]

This uncaught exception derails the remaining javascript on the page, rendering the page unusable in Firefox.

Using the non-embedded version of the script, we tracked the issue down to the following line of code:

vb2782.setStartBefore(this);

In order to fix this problem, we changed the following 3 lines of code from:

vb2782.setStartBefore(this);
var v16a1 =vb2782.createContextualFragment(v8c099);
this.parentNode.replaceChild(v16a1,this);

to:

try {vb2782.setStartBefore(this);} catch(ex) {};
var v16a1 =vb2782.createContextualFragment(v8c099);
if (this.parentNode) {this.parentNode.replaceChild(v16a1,this)};

Can this fix please be included in the next release?
