Problem found when using the Cisco case open tool with dynamic select boxes. Demo copy of page placed on http://www.avic.gg/mozilla/tac.html for testing purposes. Go to test page and try to select a technology (upper select box in technology field). Lower box in same field should then change from "Please select a technology from above list" to a request for specifying a sub-technology and a selection of sub-technologies should be available. This works fine with older versions of Mozilla, eg. 0.9.1, as well as the NS 6.x derivatives. IE has no problem either. However, newer Mozilla versions (tested with 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 milestones as well as a few nightly builds, including 20011023). JavaScript console displays this message: Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Failure" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: http://www.avic.gg/mozilla/tac.html :: getSubTechnologies :: line 266" data: no]

I may want to add that the same behaviour is seen under Windows 2000.

jkeiser? how's this look on your end? :)

Not JS Engine. Reassigning to HTML Form Controls for further triage -

Confirming on Win2k with build 2001102503. I know the restricted area where to find the original page (CCO required) and it exhibits the same problem.

I don't see this on Linux 2001102406, am I doing something wrong? When I click on the link (http://www.avic.gg/mozilla/tac.html) and check the JavaScript Console, I don't get any errors ...

jkeiser: Did you try selecting something in the first selection pull-down in the "Technology" field under "Describe your problem"? I am currently waiting for my pc to build the latest source I just downloaded (file dated 27 Oct 16:40 UTC). I expect this build ready when I get up in the morning, I can then give it another try.

My, my, I seem to have problems reading directions. I am getting the problem on line 332, but it looks like the same problem. Specifically, lines like "form.summary.options[psSelectLength]=null;" are not working. This is not happening until the frames have been initialized, though. I don't know if this is a dup or not. Fixed in bug 34297. Setting dependent.

Fixed with bug 34297 landing. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 104904 ***
