    JavaScript Problem within 3.3.3 - "B.selectNodes is not a function"

    rsoika

      Hi,

       

      I have a strange problem with my RichFaces Web app after I upgraded from Version 3.2.1 to RichFaces 3.3.3CR1 (also 3.3.2.GA).

       

      The application seems to work well. So on a first look there seems to be no error.
      But when I run the JavaScript Debugger from my FireBug in Firefox 3.5.9 (Linux) I receive all times a Script error like the following one:

      (The error differs but it is always a "... is not a function" error)

       

       


      B.selectNodes is not a function  

       

      CODE Line 7010 (framework.pack.js.jsf):
      ....
      if(!window._RICH_FACES_SKINNING_ADDED_TO_BODY){var getElementByTagName=function(B,A){var E;
      try{E=B.selectNodes('.//*[local-name()="'+A+'"]')
      }catch(C){try{E=B.getElementsByTagName(A)
      }catch(D){}}return E
      };
      .....

       

      I think you can reproduce this error because we are running an open internet application. Try:

       

      http://www.shareyourwork.org/syw/

       

      When I switch back to RichFaces Version 3.2.1.GA the error is gone.

      From my web.xml configuration I tried different settings. Currently I am running with the following settings

       

      web.xml

       

      ...

              <dispatcher>ERROR</dispatcher>
          </filter-mapping>
      ....

       

      Has anybody seen similar problems?

      Should I provide you with more informations?

       

      thanks for help
