• DWA cannot address messages in Firefox under certain conditions

    By Josef Prusa 2 decades ago

    Hello,



    there is a bug in DWA7 which got carried over to Openntf_DWA7. When one of your addressbooks title contains XML-invalid characters (like "&") you cannot access the addressing dialogue anymore. That is because Firefox is a bit picky about correct XML syntax (or there is a different code for IE).

    It did work just fine in 1.7 (and DWA6/ iNotes) so this is brand new problem.

    I registered a bug with IBM and they can hopefully fix it but it will take some time (my take: at least a year). I need some solution since I cannot change the DB title since we replicate it and have just reader access . And I really do not want to recommend using IE.
