Just upgraded to 5.40, why I can edit a block with IE but not Firefox?

Permalink
Every time I edit a block and click on update in FIREFOX, will have this error message

{"aID":"11","arHandle":"Main","cID":"1","error":false,"bID":"249"}

But I can successfully update it with IE..
Could someone help me?
Thanks!

clear your cache in firefox

I have just run into this issue today. I have cleared cache, restarted FF twice now (just to make sure). I am still getting the errors.

Thought it might be an upgraded browser, but an earlier install is working just fine.

By any chance did you install any funky addons to firefox? I know for a fact that one addon actually caused a few problems on my mac (browser related).

Hope that helps...

The issue I'm having appears to be Windows specific.
I have multiple installations running locally on my Windows (Vista) machine for development.
2 are working fine, but the one I just installed is giving me the errors. All 3 are the same version, so I really don't understand what is going on with this latest one.
I did a test install, no additions, default everything, and it is still occurring. The 'error' doesn't tell me what the error is.
I installed on a production system last night, and did not encounter any problems.
I will be trying to troubleshoot this issue today, and will post my findings when I have some.

I hate it when I do stupid things...
Problem was a GreaseMonkey script that I didn't realize was failing in the background. (That shouldn't have been running in the first place.)

Probably a javascript error, not a cache issue. Seehttp://www.concrete5.org/index.php?cID=102783#104756...

It sounds like a caching issue.

This thread is old so I'm sure the OP has moved on. But just for the sake of posterity -- I have run into a few of these errors recently, and while it's possible that it's a cache issue, every instance I've run into has turned out to be a javascript error (unfortunately an error that isn't outputted to the Firebug console for some reason).

In one instance it was that a block was including the jquery.form.js file, which was also included by Concrete5 so there was a conflict there. In another instance, I had an error in my auto.js validation code -- referencing a variable that hadn't been declared. In the latter case, it's entirely possible that it would work in one browser but not another, because each browser's javascript interpreter is *slightly* different, and it makes sense that some browsers would outright fail on an undeclared variable while other browsers would just move along and continue executing code.

BTW, the way I tracked down this variable reference error was by stepping through the submit code in Firebug and seeing what line it failed on. Then I stepped through again, and just before it called the function it was failing on, I copied that function call and pasted it into the Firebug console -- calling it there then showed me what the error was (not sure why it didn't show me otherwise, but there you go).
