I've been testing this fix on Firefox 3. 0. 6 on both Windows XP and Mandriva Linix 2009. 0 and it does not seem to work. I have cleared my caches and double-checked the changes but to no avail. I've also used FireBug to inspect the Live object and verify tht is in fact using fallback mode.
What I'm finding is that none of the pages which need to automatically refresh themselves do not work. If I log in as an Admin user in Firefox, the Monitor window does not auto-update. However, by forcng the frame to reload I can view new chat requests, etc. Similarly, when in a chat window I can reload the chat text frame to view new messages.
However, as Visit in Firefox the Initiating chat window does not function when reloaded in this fashion and hence I can not pursue any chats.

I have replaced this.fallback = false;
to if (navigator.appName == 'Microsoft Internet Explorer') {
this.fallback = false;
} else {
this.fallback = true;
}
In the class/js/aardvark. php to fix firefox issue and keep default setting for IE. Also, now helpcenterlive works fine in Opera browser too. This option works fine in IE 7 and FireFox 3. 0. 7. Thanks. |

Am I missing something in this? Where in class/js/aardvark. php am I supposed to find the this. fallback = false; to replace. I found it in the class/js/normal/aardvark. php file. . .

Never mind. I knew as soon as I asked I'd figure that out.
Now firefox loads the chat, but won't send or receive messages. Nor will it load the back end. . .

I have tried everything to make this work. Can someone please give more detailed instructions on how to fix this. Line number of the instances that need to be changes would be good. hcl/class/js/aardvark. php Is the suggested change on line 28 or line 29 or both  hcl/class/js/normal/aardvark. php Is the change change line 49, line 105 or both, from this. fallback = false; to this fallback = true; Any help is greatly appreciated |

You need to change out the code in the first instance in each file.
1. from class/js/normal/aardvark. php
Change the Boolean below to look like this:
// Boolean whether to use the fallback method instead of XMLHttpRequest
if (navigator. appName == 'Microsoft Internet Explorer') {this. fallback = false;} else {this. fallback = true;}
2.
from class/js/aardvark. php
place this code into the first section that has the this. fallback = false
it should look as the others have stated and as i have below.
if (navigator. appName == 'Microsoft Internet Explorer') {this. fallback = false;} else {this. fallback = true;};
Here is the section as i have it coded on my server- for reference in finding it:
function Aardvark(object) { this. object = object; this. xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest(); this. mac = navigator. platform. indexOf('Mac'); this. msie = navigator. userAgent. indexOf("MSIE"); this. image = new Image(); if (navigator. appName == 'Microsoft Internet Explorer') {this. fallback = false;} else {this. fallback = true;}; this. url = ''; this. variables = new Array(); this. vars = new Array(); this. connect_host = ''; this. install_host = ''; this. initiated = false; this. url_built = false; this. response = ''; this. gc = 'reset'; this. validateurl = function()
{ this. connect_host = this. url; this. install_host = document. location. toString(); this. connect_host = this. connect_host. replace(/(. *?)\/\/(. *?)\/(. *)/i, "$1//$2"); this. install_host = this. install_host. replace(/(. *?)\/\/(. *?)\/(. *)/i, "$1//$2"); this. connect_host = this. connect_host. replace(/(. *?)\/\/(. *?)/i, "$2"); this. install_host = this. install_host. replace(/(. *?)\/\/(. *?)/i, "$2"); if (this. connect_host !== this. install_host) { this. fallback = true;}
This worked for me on Google chrome, firefox and IE- I'm still trying to get it to work on the Mac. -If anyone figures that out please post.

I have done above changes but
It is not working for me in ff3. .
as OOPMan mentioned in top reply

However, by forcng the frame to reload I can view new chat requests, etc. Similarly, when in a chat window I can reload the chat text frame to view new messages.

There are many aardvark. php.
1. - class
2. - class\js
3. - class\js\normal
In which one of those we have to change the 'boolean value' (false -> true)?

As some already mentioned, every page that needs auto-refresh does not work. Has anyone come up with a fix for this part?
My environment:
Windows Vista
Firefox 3. 0. 11
Internet Explorer 7
I made the mentioned fix on both files
The problem only occurs on Firefox, IE works just fine

Open Source is great and thanks to all the people who work on it. However you need to assess how important is your time in figuring out and configuring all of this when you can just pay for chat that works great and does not need any time spent digging thru files and configurations.
I used to use help center live but it became hours of configuring and lost client chats, as a professional I opted for provide support . com. It works great. And for only $60.
I kept checking back here to see when the "new" that is old now, version was to come out.
Ok just wanted to help those struggling day after day to get this working

I agree to some extent. It is not always worth the time that it takes to get it working, and in this case, I feel that there are too many bugs and it would be better to just pay for an alternative, or build a basic system of your own like I did. On the bright side though, I have been informed that v3 will be under heavy development and tweaking in the next few months and should be out soon

I've been trying to hunt down this bug, and found this:
Firefox stops working, even with the true/false edit because is unable to find the Set-Cookie headers from the XMLHttpRequest (if used) or the Image() class [Yes, Firefox 3. 0. 11 supports XMLHttpRequest]. Running a custom AJAX request, then checking for some cookies, the right values are found inside document. cookie instead of xmlhttp. getRequestHeader() (as HCL tries to find it).
There's a part of the code inside class/js/aardvark. php (JavaScript file) where the cookie values are retrieved, and processed. The headers variable must be set to continue, but since Firefox does not read any cookie vars, headers is undefined, generates an error, and rest of JavaScript stops working for that page.
Tested an addition to the file, checking if the headers variable was empty, try to retrieve the cookies from document. cookie but this approach failed as opposed to the independent AJAX test.
Last try was to include a custom header inside the returning page (request. php if I remember well) with same values as the cookies sent to the HCL script, then changing class/js/aardvark. php to read Custom-header instead of Set-Cookie, and it worked fine [code to be included later, it's in a different computer].
The tests were run on a Laptop, Windows Vista, Firefox 3. 0. 11, Internet Explorer 7. Obviously IE worked fine, as the operator.

Any further word on this fix? I would love to use this program but currently it's useless if it doesn't support FF. Thanks in advance; Allen. |
