Google maps issue. Please help!

Thursday, October 23rd, 2008

I have a web application using google maps, specifically using infoWindows on google maps.

Whenever a user right-clicks inside the infowindow, firefox 3.0.3 on a MAC throws this error to firebug:

this.showContextMenu is not a function
http://localhost/2.12/js/ajax.js
Line 43

Now, I know this is not an ajax.js problem, and I have researched a similar problem a plugin developer had here: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=708055

If you know what this error is, or how to fix it I would love to know, as it could cause problems for my users when the software deploys.

Thanks, in advance.

Im running Firefox 3.0b5

Friday, April 25th, 2008

I started and the first thing I noticed is that this is the first time more than 75% of my Firefox plugins did not work.

Oh well, right?  Wrong!  Firebug didn’t work!!!

What am I supposed to do? Go to the official firebug website and download the unstable release of 1.2. It seems to work alright, no real problems. I will update if I find anything crazy going on!

HELP - IE7 is limiting the amount of text in a textarea

Thursday, October 4th, 2007

Have you heard of the problem where IE7 will disable the submit button of a form when the number of characters in a textarea reaches around 1800 characters?

We have a form that is online, but not publicly accessible that when users with IE7 try to access it, and put data into the textarea, the submit button will be disabled after a certain amount of text.

Also, along the same vein, IE7 will just not allow some users to enter more text. OR, IE7 will allow them to enter all the text they want, but it will not pass the entire body of text through the GET or POST request. (We tried both, despite the limitations of GET, in order to see if it was something weird).

If you have any ideas or know where I can look to solve this problem, please tell me ASAP, this is a critical issue!!!

P.S. It works JUST FINE in Firefox. I also scoured “The Google” and found only one guy who had a JS limitation on his form, which is not the case here. This is too strange…
