Yes, I get the same error, too. When I use the opensocial.requestSendMessage method and send an email (or cancel the box), Orkut always redirects me to the Profile View. I got this error in sandbox.orkut.com and I don't know if It happens in production. Can You fix It? Thanks.

refresh/redirect happens on IE and FF when the user clicks post on activity dialog. It is orkut issue, it worked fine yesterday.

btw, production is fine and doesn't have this issue however I would strongly advice not to push the current sandbox code into production. any clarifications? thanks On Mar 16, 3:50 am, anatoly anato...@gmail.com wrote: refresh/redirect happens on IE and FF when the user clicks post on activity dialog.
