Bugzilla – Bug 2810
web interface playlist doesn't refresh properly when changing players
Last modified: 2008-09-15 14:38:10 UTC
I have two slimmp3 players. When I load up the web interface, it shows what's playing on the first one correctly. However, when I change it to show the details of the other client, the current song in the top right changes, but the actual playlist below does not. What's interesting is it works correctly with IE. I emailed support and Kevin Pearsall noted it may be a javascript problem, which rings true. This is the third place where I've noticed javascript just doesn't run the same in firefox as it does in IE. Any thoughts? Thanks.

please provide the version of slimserver that you are running.
Version 6.2.1 build 5194.
is there anything in the javascript console when loading the page, or refreshing when this problem occurs?
There are no errors in the javascript console. Note that it works the second time for that instance of the browser. That is, if I don't have firefox open, it exhibits the behavior described in this bug the first time I open it. But, from there I can click "player 2", then "player 1" again and it'll refresh correctly, and will work from that point forward, until I close all instances of Firefox. This could easily be a firefox bug.

If it helps any, I'm having this same problem (Bug 2034) with 6.5b1, and viewing the HTTP GET event in my HTTP proxy, I can see that status_header.html is requesting the correct player MAC, but playlist.html isn't for whatever reason.
this should be fixed in recent 6.2.2 and 6.5 builds.
Closing per kdf. Please reopen if you still have this problem. Thanks.
