Fishbone skin will not load in IE 5.2 on MacOS

Just hangs indefinitely. Not sure what other information you might need--just let me know.
I can't do anything to test this, as I have no access to OSX. If IE has a V6 for OSX, it might be reasonable to make that upgrade and try.

I think 5.2 is the latest version for Mac.
I dont know what else I can say. Perhaps its related to bug 308 in some way.
By going in without Fishbone, then switching to Fishbone, I was able to get a script error. The error said: 'top.document.getElementById(...)' is not an object. I think it occurred on this line: <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" onload="top.document.getElementById('home').rows = ' 0 , *';"> but I don't think it's related... I was able to get the page to load by removing the last script line in index.html--but of course, the page does not load properly. The line I removed was: parent.browser.location=getHomeCookie('SlimServer-Browserpage') +'&player='+getPlayer('SlimServer-player'); Tried wording it differently but couldn't get the page to load at all in ie 5.2 if that line was in it...
hmm...that's not the right last line. index.html was changed June 27. does this problem still occur with the latest nightly? If so, I think I might know somethig I can try that might fix it. I'm assuming this is a fresh install, too. If the cookie has not been set before, there might need to be better defaults that what is already in the nightlies.
Just tried this with the latest nightly and it still fails. And yes, that line looks different in this build... Also just tried nuking my cookies in IE and it still fails with no cookies. No new cookies were added when I attempted to load http://localhost:9000/Fishbone/
Added product version 5.3.0 and upped this to 5.3.0.
ok, well, I'm stumped. I can't test this, and I can't even say for sure that IE 5.2 properly supports javascript. Anyone else have any ideas? short of anything, I'd hate to have to specifically test for IE5.2 and bounce to a crippled page.
As a test, I have tried this with IE6.0 under Windows. Also, after removing the cookies. No cookies are created until the user makes a specific choice. Without cookies, the page returns in default mode, as I would expect. Soemthing in 5.2 for OSX must be treating it differently. The only thing I cna find in a search involves issues with 5.2 and CSS. Dean, are you able to reproduce? Can you see anything in the logs that might hint at what exactly is failing?
Created attachment 64 [details] shooting blind here is a rewrite, this time following an example instead of going with that i know. This still seems to work for firefox and IE6. Hopefully it was a document close and code framing issue.
Created attachment 65 [details] Cool!
Had trouble applying the patch until I used wget on the attachment viewing url... But once I got the patch down OK, it loads ok as per screenshot. Thanks!
cool. I'll commit tonight.
