fileUpload does not always complete in IE8
------------------------------------------

                 Key: RF-8536
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-8536
             Project: RichFaces
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
    Affects Versions: 3.3.2.SR1
         Environment: Windows XP IE8 - probably all versions of Windows with IE8
            Reporter: Andrew May


Using fileUpload in IE8 sometimes (perhaps 1 out of every 10 times) fails to complete uploads. The file is uploaded but the progress bar is still displayed and the onuploadcomplete event is not triggered.

The browser status bar shows
"Waiting for http://localhost:8080/finreq/purchase/edit.jsf?_richfaces_upload_uid=0.5471783827781095&purchase:attachmentUpload=purchase:attachmentUpload&_richfaces_upload_file_indicator=true&AJAXREQUEST=purchase:j_id383"

but when using Fiddler to examine the requests, this request has successfully completed.

Using the script debugger in IE8 and using "Break All" when the error occurs the method highlighted is this:

3.3.2.SR1org.ajax4jsf.javascript.PrototypeScript line 17:
return __method.apply(object,args.concat($A(arguments)))

I wonder whether this could be related to one of the IE8 incompatibilities in Prototype 1.6.0.3 that have been fixed in Prototype 1.6.1.

Testing in IE7 and IE6 there were no similar problems seen.
