Andy,
I am currently trying to figure out why I don't get any update on
my browser of, if any, just once.
When looking at the recv function in openair.js I see:
function recv (data) {
var response = eval("[" + data + "]");
for(var i=0; i<data.length; i++) {
eval(response[i]);
}
}
Kind of weird to me... I'd understand if it read:
function recv (data) {
var response = eval("[" + data + "]");
for(var i=0; i<response.length; i++) {
eval(response[i]);
}
}
Hmmm, if that was a typo then the loop would iterate once for each
character in the response evaluating (eventually) non-existent
responses which should be fast but... we have been wondering my the
thing was hugely slow at times, I will try this fix later.
Nice catch, Frank! (It looks like a catch to me.) btw, JS goes into
the loop even when the conditionis false initially? Hard to believe
they got that wrong. I will add a preemptive strike anyway, cannot
hurt.
Showed up in the Firebug Debugger (Firefox *really* is /the/ choice
for Web developers ...) - I will check again if this really happens -
wait a minute ... Yep - it is entering the for loop:
response.length is 0 and it executes the eval in the loop...
Cheers (that nice brown liquid right beside me is yelling "Drink me" -
well, it's been in the cask for 18 year so let's swallow it
sloooowly ... mmmmh ...)
Frank
