When I want to add or then remove broker link, I get following warning (yes/no) after pressing submit in IE8 (Server2003): Stop running this script? A script on this page is causing Internet Explorer to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer might become unresponsive. YES NO cumin-0.1.4746-1.el5 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. In IE8: Messaging -> broker -> Broker Links -> Broker Link Add 2. add some valid broker name, then press Submit Actual results: The above-reprinted warning shows and the only help is to press Yes. Then I am immediately transferred where I should normally (seeing "Add broker link: OK" in yellow box, the Operational link in the list). Expected results: The underlying scripts should not make IE8 think there is something wrong.
The same happens when I submit a new Submission from Grid -> Submissions -> Submit job The full error which follows right after clicking on the "Yes" button (as to not continue running the slow script): ---------------------------------------- User Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.2; Trident/4.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729) Timestamp: Thu, 12 May 2011 18:13:41 UTC Message: Syntax error Line: 138 Char: 1 Code: 0 URI: http://cumin-host/index.html?frame=main.grid;main.m=grid;main.grid.id=1;main.grid.view.body.m=pool_submissions ----------------------------------------
The same error: Messaging -> amqp broker -> Add queue
Fix available in revision 4763 (or via the attached patch to mootools.js). See the note for the attachment for details of the patch.
Technical note added. If any revisions are required, please edit the "Technical Notes" field accordingly. All revisions will be proofread by the Engineering Content Services team. New Contents: Cause: The version of the mootools.js library that we are using is rather old (1.2.4) and has a bug that affects IE8. Consequence: IE8 complains about "slow running script" and performs badly when submitting forms (or potentially exiting any page where we use the <object> tag) Fix: We have patched the mootools.js library to address this specific problem without upgrading to the latest version to avoid introducing a great deal of work at this time. Result: IE8 no longer complains about long-running scripts.
