imagedrawer: Web preview hangs on IE8

[Paul Everitt]

On IE8, we get into conditions where the throbber throbs and almost nothing can clear it:

In the first, I got it into that state previously and even F5 full refresh didn't clear it. I had to close the browser. On the second, it took a while but I got it at the end to make the browser get stuck.

Take a look at everything assigned to you and see if you got LP emails for everything.

Balazs, what is the status on this?

[Balazs Ree (ree)]

Closing this bug since I have reason to believe that my previous commit fixed it.

If the problem still exists please reopen the bug.

[Paul Everitt (paul-agendaless)]

Broken again on IE8. Throbber shows up and never goes away.

[Paul Everitt (paul-agendaless)]

Raising the importance of this, since imagedrawer is about to go out the door.

I thought it was fixed but i was in IE7 in IE8 it is hanging again.

[Paul Everitt (paul-agendaless)]

I'll see if I can confirm it as broken, then try something like Yugma where Balazs can take over my system.

[Paul Everitt (paul-agendaless)]

Jim, I can make it hang on IE8 but I can't make it hang on IE7. Can you try again?

If it actually works ok on IE7 we can lower the priority.

I can only get it to fail on ie8...Ie 7 appears to be working.

I'm going to lower the priority on this and move it to the next milestone. We need to roll out fixes for the bugs that are coming in.

[Paul Everitt (paul-agendaless)]

JimP, can you see if this is still a problem (your comment #10)?

[JimPGlenn (jpglenn09)]

I cannot get the throbber to hang under IE7 or IE8.

[Paul Everitt (paul-agendaless)]

Per Jim, this is no longer a problem.
