ID: 31452 Updated by: jed@php.net Reported By: c dot d at earthlink dot net Status: Feedback Bug Type: Website problem Operating System: Mac OS X 10.3.7 PHP Version: Irrelevant Assigned To: goba New Comment: Thumbs up on that. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-10 18:51:33] goba@php.net Could everyone reading this bug report please find an uptodate mirror and see if the search suggestion works on the search page? One of the updated mirrors now is http://hu2.php.net/search.php If the function suggestions are working fine on this page, then we can deploy them again on all php.net pages again. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-10 14:39:32] goba@php.net It is not obfuscated, but rather compressed. We also link to the original uncompressed files on our search page, so you can get the source if you want. The script would be more than double its size, if it would not be compressed. It is done to get the script to our users as quickly as possible and use less bandwidth. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-10 14:10:28] mufus69 at yahoo dot co dot uk This problem is not restricted to WinXP/Opera. The .js code itself has all the hallmark of an exploit script, inefficiently attempting to obfuscate the code rather than normal "readable" javascript. The error, as reported by Mozilla 1.7.3 (Win32) is: Error: dcp is not defined Source File: http://www.php.net/functions.js Line: 2 Of course, "line 2" is of no use as the code is all on one or two lines... The issue only appears after a search has been performed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-10 13:20:34] paul dot php dot net at fuelmono dot net Up until about ten minutes ago, I was having this problem in Firefox 1.0 on Windows. I disabled JavaScript, and the page worked. I re-enabled JavaScript, its working again. I presume something has been changed, hooray! :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-10 11:43:39] virtualphtn at gmail dot com I think the problem occurs because the file http://www.php.net/functions.js uses the document.write() method after the page has finished loading, but it never calls document.close(). So the browser just sits there waiting. document.write(), if called after the document finishes loading, erases the contents of the document and replaces them, so that's probably not what you want anyway. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
