Summary: If login required to read, IE7 throws JS error when not
logged in
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.15.1
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: trivial
Priority: Normal
Component: User interface
AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: c...@web-factory.de
If $wgGroupPermissions['*']['read'] is set to 'false', then the call to
/wiki/index.php?title=-&action=raw&smaxage=0&gen=js&useskin=myskin outputs not
a javascript file, nor nothing, but the quite normal HTML page with the message
about not being logged in. IE7 says this is not valid JS, and it does have a
point there. This problem probably also exists for IE6 and IE8.
On my local installation, since we have a project-specific default skin, I
patched it like so:
if($this->data['loggedin' ] == '') {
$this->data['jsvarurl' ] = '';
}
But a better solution would be setting jsvarurl to nothing if the user must log
in to read before this point, or just outputting nothing for action=raw.
