I am here to clarify an issue am facing in chrome alone and the issue is - 'I can't able to add My Site in chrome search engine via Javascript window.external.AddSearchProvider(xml_url) , However,on earlier times, it worked properly without any issues.'
I am not doing auto-adding my site to search engine with help of '<link>' tag (however, this too does not worked for me)
The 'window.external.AddSearchProvider(xml_url) works fine in firefox as earlier,,, The problem is only with the chrome, since, chrome supported earlier, and don't know the root cause of not able to add now. Please help me to figure out the issue by which i cant able to add in chrome Search Engine.
Thank you :)
Unfortunately window.external.AddSearchProvider is obsolete. It is working in Firefox but is no longer supported.
The <link> tag that you add in your site's <head> is for Autodiscovery of search plugins feature, this will list your site search engine in the configurations of the browser.
In chrome will list at chrome://settings/searchEngines
I have an issue with Firefox. In both responsive mode and Firefox Mobile to be accurate.
The touch scrolling isn't working on my website. (But the scroll with the mouse is working on Responsive mode)
It works fine on Chrome mobile & Safari mobile.
I checked online and I already tried the dom.w3c_touch_events.enabled set to 1. It was actually set to 1 by default.
I think it's an issue on the JS/CSS side but I can't see where.
I use SASS and Pleeease to compile it and it's a React app compiled with webpack.
Also I use the method fetch to call my webservices if it can have any influence but I doubt it. (and have a polyfill for it)
I tried to nuke totally my CSS and it still didn't work.
Happy to share URL if people want to see the actual problem. I just don't want to be seen as a spam. Also I will share a test server and not the live one. (problem is the same anyway)
Found the (stupid) solution and posting it as it might be helpful to someone.
I had a overflow:hidden; added by mistake in html, body { into my SASS.
For some reason the responsive mode in Firefox is still not working (bug? cache? I don't know...). But once I tried again on my Firefox mobile it was gone.
Looks like Chrome and Safari are ignoring this CSS but not Firefox.
For the record I am on last versions on all my browsers.
There is a website that I must use at work quite a bit and the only browser it works on is Internet Explorer.
I'm presuming this is because the code is outdated/incorrect and includes javascript that only IE is able to read.
This is a problem, because I want to use Firefox or Chrome, they are much better browsers.
I believe the issue is Firefox/Chrome (hereinafter referred to as foam) not being able to recognize the following "onclick" command lines. When I press these buttons, the web page does not change as it should.
<button class="MenuButton" title="Create ICL" value="ADDICL" onclick="PageJump('ICLMain.asp?From=ICLHome')">Create ICL
So.... since this is not my website, I cannot re-write all of this code to fix it. It is a corporate owned underwriter website for creating a certain document.
There must be some sort of extension that enables Firefox/Chrome to read Javascript codes like Internet Explorer so that I can use Firefox/Chrome and still use this website.
Try to use chrome extension ie tab, https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ie-tab/hehijbfgiekmjfkfjpbkbammjbdenadd?hl=es. This extension emulate The ie Explorer.
I'm also facing the same problem(Javascript broke). The solution I found is to just add https:// before the link and reload the page and everything will work fine again.
So i just finished up my website and uploaded it (New-ish web dev, please don't be to harsh). It works fine on all browsers except IE8. The website has a lot to load (images, etc.) so it is white screen for 1 - 2 seconds then fades into the actual site. On IE8 (IE9 + works just fine) the page stays on the white 'loading' screen forever. I have a lot of code here and I'm just wondering what you professional web developers here think i should do!

There is two options: forget about IE8 or make it work on IE8.
Sounds like you have a problem with your javascript. To debug javascript on IE8, read this How to debug Javascript with IE 8.
I think one of your included .js files causing the issue. Check for the compatibility of your used javascript files
You said you uploaded the site - could you post the link if its live - otherwise without seeing some code the issue if difficult
Ever since Chrome updated itself to version 32, I have been experiencing aggravating bugs. One of the worst is when editing the DOM using the Web Inspector, and Chrome will about every minute start popping up this dialog, which yanks focus from the Web Inspector:
It's complaining about the Web Inspector itself being "unresponsive", when it really isn't, and nothing's gone wrong.
This particular page I'm messing with is making use of the mutation-summary library. Perhaps the bug in Chrome that thinks stuff is unresponsive could be related to setting various continuously-running setTimeouts. I say this because I observe similar behavior in the web app we build at work where this has also started happening (and is equally annoying).
The workaround is I believe it is possible to just ignore the dialog and work can continue. I wonder if anyone else (or everyone else) has been experiencing this issue?
I started getting this problem as well.
In searching, I came accross this issue https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=335248.
As best I figured out, the bug is related to:
Windows 7/8 with Aero Theme
Scrollbars on pages (such as in the developer console)
Pages with popups (in particular Window.open() calls)
I guess they are slated to push the fix into version 33...and maybe leave the stable* 32 how it is (although I hope not).
So there are a few options:
Switch away from Aero Theme until version 33 is in stable
Upgrade to the beta channel, i.e. version 33
Click on the Wait button every 30 seconds whenever the chrome developer tools is open.
Update:
Chrome has released a hotfix into the version 32 stable channel. http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.ro/2014/01/stable-channel-update_27.html
Thanks to #probackpacker for bringing it to my attention.
I have experienced this as well on Windows, it seems that this will happen in general when using the browser (not only within the web inspector). It also seems to happen more often when loading flash content (such as a game). The browser and flash areas are responding normally, but the browser thinks that they are not for whatever reason. Pressing wait seems to hide the dialog for a few minutes until it will re-appear again.
I've read that this bug is fixed in the next beta (version 33).

I have also experienced this issue. The change of theme workaround has worked, and the Chromium team has provided the following update today:
... We understand your frustration and are actively working to resolve
it. When you add that comment, it’s confusing the comments around
whether we’re able to fully fix it on canary. If we can confirm it’s
fully fixed in canary, we can merge into the stable channel and
everyone can get the fix. So please refrain from saying thatyou’re
having this problem, too. I assure you we’re actively working on a
fix.
This statement was taken from Chromium ticket #335248.
Okay here’s the solution you can do without changing your theme, right click on my computer, go to your System Properties, and then go to "Advanced", click on "Settings" under Performance, then check the below radio button. This seems to stop it
If the aero fix isn't working for you, download Chrome Beta
I have had this same issue with Chrome 32 (there are so many problems in the dev tools...) but it ONLY happens for me when I have the dev tools detached / undocked from the main browser window.
You might be able to avoid it by re-docking the devtools if you are using them in un-docked mode.
August 6, 2014 - I solved this by installing the latest Chrome Beta https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/beta.html
You can solve this problem in Chrome by following simple steps-
1-Go to Setting
2-Go to Advance Setting
3-Uncheck the "Use Hardware Acceleration when available".
I fixed that problem by linking modem directly to my PC, didn't reinstall or change Chrome or anything. I skipped connection through my wireless router which I think was the problem from the start... now all the pages Chrome couldn't load are loading with no problem at all. Maybe it's time to by a new router...
