Web console and firefox

Hi there,

I'm just evaluating the web console under Firefox 2.x. After logging in (which works well) none of the menu points is working. It happens nothing.
When I look into the error console a can see messages like:

Error: window.showModalDialog is not a function
Source: http://mysql.dilloncs.de:8080/jwi24x7/menu.jsp
Line: 19

In IE everthing works fine. Are you aware about this incompatibility? Do you know a solution how it works with Firefox?

Regards

It should be possible to use the console with FireFox too. There is really nothing special in the console code that makes it browser dependent. The server generates standard HTML and JavaScript code.

Please verify that JavaScript options are enabled in the browser and the version of JavaScript version is not very old.

By the way, which FireFox version are you running?

I'm using Firefox in the latest version (2.0.0.4)
For testing purposes I just installed Opera 9.21 (of course java script is enabled by default) the error console
shows up the following messages. This examples appears when clicking on the "Tools" menu.
Neither Firefox nor Opera pops up the expected Window - IE 6.0 does.

Opera's error console:

Event thread: click
Error:
name: TypeError
message: Statement on line 66: Type mismatch (usually a non-object value used where an object is required)
Backtrace:
Line 66 of inline#1 script in http://mysql.dilloncs.de:8080/jwi24x7/menu.jsp
var RetValue = window.showModalDialog("md_container.jsp?title=Tools%20Menu&url=tools_menu.jsp", window, Props);
Line 1 of script
CallTools();
At unknown location
[statement source code not available]

Any more hints?
Thanks a lot!

It appears that showModalDialog method is not currently supported in FireFox and Opera. Sorry.

OK. Thanks for the info.
