I recently found out that in Internet Explorer (v9 at least), the "Pin it" button for Pinterest is breaking 'back' functionality in the browser. Right-clicking on it shows an entry like 'http://assets.pinterest.com/pidget.html' as the previous page.
Looks like Pinterest is adding an iFrame and IE is adding its address to the history. Clicking 'back' doesn't do anything. Is this a known issue and is there a fix for this?
well, as a temporary solution (other than removing the 'pin it' button), from reading their code, I believe (not tested) that you could add a part to the <script> call to disable logging, like this ...
<script type="text/javascript" src="//assets.pinterest.com/js/pinit.js" data-pin-do-not-log="true"></script>
This works but doesn't apply for me because I load the script asynchronously and I use a load command, so what I did was I copied the pinit.js file locally to the server, and changed the part that says
if(a.v.config["do-not-log"]||a.a.doNotLog===true)
to
if(a.v.config["do-not-log"]||a.a.doNotLog===true||true)
looks like it's doing some sort of log in an iframe.
I was having the same problem. I added the website to my list of restricted sites by going to "Tools", then "Internet options", then "Security". It seems to have solved the problem.
I've raised it with PInterest here https://help.pinterest.com/requests/884162
Thier response. Pretty much a brush off.
Hi ,
Information on how to add the Pin It button to your website or product pages is available here:
http://pinterest.com/about/goodies/
More advanced documentation is available here:
https://help.pinterest.com/entries/21101982
We regret that we're unable to provide coding support. Because issues with adding the Pin It button can be caused by conflicts with different parts of your setup it is usually best when someone that is familiar with your setup troubleshoots it. You may also want to try searching the web to see if others have had similar issues especially people that are using a similar site platform or language.
We request that you use our help articles to get the information you need as quickly as possible. If there’s additional information you’d like our team to know, you can reply to this message.
Thanks for writing and happy pinning!
The Pinterest Team
This was a temporary bug when we first pushed the new Pin It button and should no longer be an issue, since we removed the logging frame shortly after it was reported. Sorry for the trouble!

I just re-did a site, when I check it for broken links (using brokenlinkcheck), it comes up with 73 broken links that are all like this: www.example.com/site/numbers are here/${href}. Support over there tells me that (this quote is from one rep who got 'news' from another):
QUOTE: "did not find an issue. They had mentioned that the examples I showed were referring to tags with an attribute data-href that have the broken url. There type of links are not clickable and can not be visited and are mistakenly recognized by the tool as broken links. The link checker mistakenly alerts for 'data-href=...' (its not an href attribute)." END QUOTE
BUT, seeing the link in my email to them, I CAN click on it (why are they saying it's not clickable???). My main question is: will Google see this as broken links? Support is telling me there's no issue. But it looks like an issue to me. I cannot go in and fix myself, I would need specific wording to try and convince support to fix it. So, if you DO believe it is a problem, could you suggest how I word that in an email to support, who seems to think it is fine? Thanks so much for your help.
Without a URL to check it, or a sample of the html code, it is hard to say for sure. What the rep said does make sense, it is possible for the broken addresses to only be present in a data- attribute and therefor not to be clickable, Google would also not take these URLs into account while crawling the site.
Yes if you take the URL out of the data- attribute and paste it into an email it will be clickable but not clickable on your site. Again without a link to the site hard to say for sure.
Can you by clicking around your site get to and click the broken link? If not then it may just be a problem of the tool you are using.
i've been plagued by a problem that seem to started since Youtube's last
layout change this year.
I have for months put up and tried to ignore the freezing that happens
everytime I open a link within youtube such as an channel, an video, the homepage, etc.
I'm using Chrome version 31.0.1650.63 and I have already tested youtube without any
extensions, cookies, cache, etc but it still affects me to this day and maybe some
of you out there.
I searched every where for the solution and couldn't find any anywhere.
I did a bit of digging and testing to see what is the root of the problem and
while i'm no expertise on code or Java...I did found something.
Every time I reload a page on youtube, with it finishing loading up...this happens:
http://i.imgur.com/K9Z3vJ1.png
See that?
The purple-colored rendering, that's the cause of the lag every time I load
up something on youtube!
I notice that it repeats the same thing over and over again for like 5-15 or so
seconds before it starts loading up the thumbnails of the videos.
If you want a closer inspection of the code, here's the raw data from the timeline (that you can load up in chrome's dev timeline window):
Youtube Lag JSON Timeline file
I don't what to do with this problem and I believe it affects
me in Firefox as well but to an lesser extent then chrome.
Do any of you guys know how to resolve this problem?
Honestly I doubt that the youtube devs will fix this problem since they're the ones who caused it in the first place. (Like not being able to subscribe to some people when i'm not even at my sub limit.)
I'm sorry if you don't want to help but I don't know who else to look to besides
the experts that y'all are when it comes to web coding. If anything, I believe a userscript or something similar could help with this but how...I don't know.
I'm new to this and I apologize if the question i'm asking isn't suited for this site.
Still, thanks for reading and if you can...please reply.
That is all and thanks again.
Well I was fiddling around and looking at the source code
with chromes timeline devtools and well...
I found a temporary solution to the problem which seems to have
fixed and ended the freezing on youtube! yay~
But some things don't work with this solution and i'm at
a fault with this issue after some hours trying to figure out
how to stop the problem.
Anyways I used adblock, an extension that I have on Google Chrome, to deal
with this issue and was able to get everything fixed and working!
What I did was, in the custom filters section (check options in your
adblock extension, you should have it.) and added the following then did
some testing to see if it fixed the problem which it did!
Here are the filters I used to fix it!

Yeah, that's the temporary solution as it fixes the problems but it causes the following...
You can't open the menu which contains links to your playlists, user settings, channel, etc when you click your username or profile
picture on top right of youtube.
The "..." mini-menu that you usually find on the right of a video section (to hide, subscribe, etc.) doesn't appear anymore.
Youtube's quick menu button doesn't work, however the menu is still open but you won't be able to close it. That or it's close and you
won't be able to open it...I guess.
Those are the problems I found with this temporarily solution to the freezing problem.
Yeah...but I hope this helps anyone who's having this problem somewhat well.
But it would be nice if someone has an better solution then mine hehe!
Thanks for reading and if you have a better solution, don't feel afraid to
tell! ^_^
I'll be awaiting other answers, for now...I hope this helps y'all well
in some ways hehe! =D
This certainly isn't javascript, but substituting the normal EasyList in ABP for EasyList without element hiding will fix the issue. There are downsides to this as well but for now seems to be the better solution.
I have no idea why this happened, but I am no longer able to copy text on my website (in Wordpress), kinda. I can paste text, but not copy text. And I can go to any other website and copy and paste text, but just not on my own. Both methods of copying (right click copy or control + C on windows) does not work on my website. But anyways, this problem applies only within text fields, like the style editor, header editor, the "quickpress" text field on the dashboard and even on the search field of my website. So I tried the following to fix this issue:
1) Disable my keyboard driver and restart my computer
2) Uninstall and reinstall my internet browser - Google Chrome
None of the above worked. But just recently, I I was able to copy and paste <script> text bit in my header.php file. I couldn't copy any other text but this and a few other snippets of code... which is very weird. But anyways, here is a code/text I copied and also what I get once I paste the code:
Original text that I copied:
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.0-min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
Text I get when I paste original above text:
See more at: http://www.mywebsite.com/wp-admin/theme-editor.php?file=header.php&theme=mytheme2%2Fthemez2#sthash.WVvNmB7H.dpuf
Could this be a potential hacker or intruder into my website? I can't see any other explanation for this very strange error at this point. If anyone could help fix the copy and paste abilities for my website or come up with an explanation to this odd problem, it would really mean a lot.
Update:
This problem only persists in Google Chrome and Safari... not Mozilla or IE. And I stripped all of my java code and the problem still remains Hope that helps.
I work on thehollywoodreporter.com. Our editors could no longer use the Drupal 6 CMS because of this sharethis change. When they tried to copy from one field to another in the cms, it would take the string and turn it into:
See more at: <text pasted>&action=edit#sthash.mOyzIP9P.dpuf
I seriously thought our site had been hacked for like 10 minutes. Luckily, the dev community started posting about it, and pointed out it was the new CopyNShare feature sharethis added. I commented out the sharethis code, so our editors could resume publishing, and we got on the phone with our sharethis contact, and they had us change this:
<script type="text/javascript">var __st_loadLate=true;</script><script type="text/javascript" src="http://w.sharethis.com/button/buttons.js"></script>
to
<script type="text/javascript">var __st_loadLate=true;</script><script type="text/javascript" src="http://w.sharethis.com/button/buttons.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">stLight.options({publisher: "<your publisher key>", doNotHash:false, doNotCopy:true,hashAddressBar:false});</script>
Apparently, they made a change to their code so that you MUST add 'doNotCopy: true' in order for it NOT to add this hash when you cut and paste within your site! This is their new "product" CopyNShare.
I told them "I don’t think it was popular move to roll out this feature as a new default like this. I seriously thought our site had been hacked for 10-15 minutes. Not fun."
They replied: "I definitely understand your concern, as we share the same concerns on the pub services team. We will be doing a "postmortem" of sorts to ensure we change this process in the future when new product features are rolled out."
As #Punit Pandey suggested, the ShareThis plugin started doing this today (February 27th 2013) without warning. You can disable this new functionality by adding the following JavaScript after the ShareThis-code has initialized:
stLight.options({doNotCopy:true});
The description for this new functionality can be found here: ShareThis CopyNShare Settings
This is happening on my website due to ShareThis plugin. ShareThis adds this tag sthash and an identification ending with dpuf, I guess, to identify website.
The problem stemmed from a plugin within Wordpress called "Digg Digg". I simply deactivated this plugin and there was no copy and pasting issues. :)
I fixed this issue in Drupal 7 by changing modules/sharethis/sharethis.module
around line 467
// Provide the publisher ID.
$stlight = drupal_json_encode(array(
'publisher' => $data_options['publisherID'],
**'doNotCopy' => "true",**
));
there doesnt appear to be any option to turn this off in the module config page. Very annoying!
Lots of times we have to download files from the net. In IE we get to see the ugly download progress bar. In firefox we get to see a pop-up window opening etc.
However, I have never seen this being over ridden in any manner.
Until recently on the site
> **thesixtyone DOT com**
If we get to download a song free and click on the ok link to start the download we get a pop up to select location in the default style of windows. Then we see the progress bar as shown below.
Any ideas on this? I am trying to see how these guys did this.
you can see the image http://highwaves.files.wordpress.com/2010/04/61-download-bar.jpg
I think it is Flash. Cross-browser is Javascript to do not work
You will probably want either an AJAX or Flash solution for this.
AJAX* solution - provided by jQuery
The asterisk here is because AJAX is not actually used, but does something similar in jQuery
Unfortunately I don't have a handy link for a Flash solution at present...but there should be plenty of tutorials for something about writing a download manager in ActionScript :)
I am unable to replicate the problem when I want to but it seems like every now and then, my site using FCKeditor will load the interface but not the content (Clicking the buttons don't do anything). No javascript errors show and once it starts doing it, it usually is tough to get back to normal. The way I found to work best is to click the refresh button multiple times in a row, then the FCKeditor loads correctly. I have only seen this in Firefox
Has anyone else run into this problem or know a solution. It is a little annoying for me but I am afraid my client would be really confused
I have experienced the phenomenon you describe in FCKEditor's successor, CKEditor. Somehow, the IFRAME that contains the WYSIWYG content doesn't get loaded. What always helps is switching to source code view and back, but that's no solution.
I have seen the problem described on the Internet but with no solution.
Caching is not the problem, I think. Sometimes, if you press "reload" 20 times, it will break at the 21th time, and work again on the 22nd time.
What minimized the number of occurrences for me was to activate the thingy to the editor's bottom that shows the element path (body > p > span, I forgot it's name). I don't now why but since I turned it on, it very rarely breaks any more.
I have had this problem. I solved it by pre-loading FCKeditor in a hidden iframe during the login process so that when it got to the pages where it was used it was already in the cache.
i would strongly advise to upgrade to CKEditor which can not only be spelled out verbally without offending anyone, but also optimizes the loading time to minimal. I find it much more responsive than his F- friend.
I encountered this problem with firefox (not reproducible) and chrome (reproducible).
The solution that worked quite well in both cases was to wait for some milliseconds before initializing CKE :
setTimeout(function() {textarea.ckeditor({customConfig : 'custom/schnonfig.js'})} , 100);
