I'll try again with a brand new username - maybe I didn't click where  thought I did!

Hi Nuno,

Do you have any more info on your fix? Were you experiencing the same thing? The Doctype for the pages is:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"

      xmlns:wicket="http://wicket.apache.org/dtds.data/wicket-xhtml1.3-strict.dtd"

      xml:lang="en"

      lang="en">
but looking through Sitestats, they are also set to Strict:


<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"

    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

<html

      xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"

      xmlns:wicket="http://wicket.sourceforge.net/"

      xml:lang="en"

      lang="en">
Does SiteStats use Wicket's ModalWindows?

Adam's first issue is a new one too, very odd, considering it doesn't happen in any other browser I've tested on.

Hi!

I remember hitting a similar problem (IE hanging) when writing up StiteStats 2.0 (which is based on Wicket too).
After some days (!!!) of debugging, I realized that changing the HTML DOCTYPE fixed the issue!!! You can try changing it and check if it solves the issue!

When I clicked on add connection I briefly saw the dialogue box and then got a pop up asking me if I really wanted to navigate away from the page. I clicked ok and got put at the profile tool's first page. The second time I tried the brower hung. This with 8.0.6001.18372 on XP.

The second time around, whilst the pop up is visible I also get weird behaviour with the scroll bars on the iframe appearing and disappearing ad infinitum, this causes the debug link to wobble around the screen. Clicking cancel

let me know if you need me to do more.

Hi all,

Steve Swinsburg, Daniel Robinson and I have been working on an issue with Profile 2 where IE8 crashes when adding a connection. The strange thing is that so far only I am experiencing this problem (on multiple machines, operating systems etc). Daniel cannot reproduce it with IE8 on Sakai Nightly. Can anyone else please try against http://nightly2.sakaiproject.org:8085/portal if they can reproduce this issue?

The steps to reproduce are described in the issue: http://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/PRFL-146

You can add me (mbreuker) as a connection to test.

Thanks,

Mark
