IE6 (very specific version) Crash on Seam Remoting Callback ----------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-3459 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-3459 Project: Seam Issue Type: Bug Components: Remoting Affects Versions: 2.0.1.GA Environment: Microsoft Windows XP - Professional IE 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_gdr.070227-2254 Intel (R) Core(TM) 2 Duo CPU (1.80Ghz) 1.99Gb of RAM Reporter: Anthony Kitchin Assignee: Shane Bryzak Fix For: 2.1.0.GA I tracked the issue down to one line of javascript code in remote.js req.onreadystatechange = function() {}; The following thread discusses the problem is with an old version of the JScript.dll 5.6.0.8820 which is the same version I've got on a laptop here. http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Web-Toolkit/browse_thread/thread/69... One solution is to upgrade JScript.dll to 5.6.0.8831 http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms06-023.mspx Or we can do what they did in GWT which is to move the req.onreadystatechange out of the scope of the current function window.setTimeout(function() { req.onreadystatechange = function() {}; }, 0 );
