TYPO3 Core

I can't confirm that with IE6 and the latest version from CVS,
anybody else?

Do you get Javascript errors or something?

I can confirm that error in IE 6, even with the current CVS Version.
Get JavaScript error (translated from german):

Line: 134
Char: 6
Error: 'null' is Null or no object
Code: 0

related / same issue:
http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=2703

At least these two conditions must be met to reproduce the problem:
1. German BE language pack csh_de must be installed (or maybe just any other Non-English pack - not sure about that)
2. TemplaVoila 1.0.0beta must be installed (it expands the filelist context menu by one entry, which seems to lead to the problem)

Hi holdi1980 and Tobias Hövelborn, can you confirm you use some other language than English and TV installed?

Greets, Sebastian

Hello Sebastian.. yes, I'm using the csh_de and the TemplaVoila 1.0beta Extension!

H1 Sebastian, I'm using csh_de and TV 1.0beta as well.

To have all current info together in this thread, here are the relevant parts from the description in bug report 2703:
---
When JS debugger is installed in IE, it reports a JS error in Line 134 of file filelist.php:
"null" is Null or not an object
Attention: Line 134 is counted here in the HTML-Output of filelist.php, not in the original PHP file. The error takes place in the first line of JS function showClickmenu_ajax():
if (t3ajax.getElementsByTagName("data")[0]) {
Further debugging with the JS debugger shows that the variable t3ajax in the above condition is Null and thus causes the error!
...
Local System:
Win XP, SP2
IE6 SP2

Reproducable with Typo3 running either on local machine or on external server (WinXP / Win2003, Apache2, PHP4.4).

I just updated from TV0.5.0 to TV 0.6.0 - and the problem persists.

Another detail...

As said before the problem does not occur in FireFox. But FF gives a possible hint to what happens behind the scenes:
When no language pack is installed (BE is shown in English) the TemplaVoila item in Filelist's context menu is displayed as "TemplaVoilà". As soon as csh_de is installed the TV entry is displayed in FireFox as "TemplaVoil?" (accented "a" replaced by questionmark).
As csh_de (as far as I know) does not contain any TV strings, it seems that activating a language pack somehow generally changes the way accented characters in context menus are processed.

Problem persists with:

Typo3 4.0 RC1
+ new German language Pack "de.tgz"

It doesn't work under RC2 too!

Problem persists with:
Typo3 4.0 RC3

other eventhandler, same action:
also right click doesn't work in >= IE 6

Hi,
sorry, I cannot do anything about it... :/ Maybe somebody else can take it?
Greets, Sebastian

found it! :-)
the á (á) character in the clickmenu title of templavoila causes the problem.
to fix it you can install the llxml extension from TER, open the file ext/templavoila/locallang.xml and change the word "Templavoilá" to "Templavoila" (in all languages)
after saving the file it worked for me in FF and IE (6)
please confirm.

I move the bug to the templavoila project.

Hi Rupert,

IMHO your fix is a workaround, but not a solution.
I think this is not a TV bug, but a bug of the menu related AJAX routines in conjunction with non-ASCII characters in menu items.

I am afraid that this can happen again at any time with localized menus, so removing the cause and not the symptom would be advisable.

Just my 1.5 cents. ;)

Cheers,
Jörg.

I removed the accent from "TemplaVoila" but as far as I could see, the labels for the context menus should be char-converted somewhere in the core, not in the extension. I use $LANG->getLLL with the htmlspecialchar parameter set which -theoretically should also take care of the character set.

As the locallang.xml is utf-8, this problem only appears in backends not having forceCharset=utf-8.

Moving report back to core project ;-)

Just wanted to add that the problem exist too with the french language pack.

the problem does not only occur with templavoilà, but with any extension that's using ´ ` or ^ (as far as i see here).. I do not have Templavoila installed, but the same problem.

I really don´t know if that helps, but:
I had the same issue with the ext tiny_rte installed. no context menus.
i realized that in the ajax-returned xml there were a lot of linebreaks in the beginning (just before the declaration starts).
so i first converted all php-files from tiny_rte from DOS to UNIX using dos2unix. afterwards i converted everything from ISO to UTF-8 (i think this is the most important thing...).
than i found a php-file which has a couple of linebreaks after the php-closing-tag.
i erased them and -> bang! context-menus were working again!

i don´t use TV with T3 4.0 but perhaps it helps finding the gremlin here...

greetings,

niels

Hi,

i also had that problem and within the ext_localconf of ext (ext key: do_not_temp_cache) Disable Temporary Cache. There where one linebreak
before php-opening-tag and after php-closing-tag.

Hi,

i got the problem with the click-menus also. I already disabled all extensions except the system ones (cms etc).

I have the Problem only on one site. There are other sites on the same server with the same T3 version without this problem.

The Problem occures in T3-Version 4.1.1 and 4.1.2.

Does this one still occur with TYPO3 4.2.1 ?

I am closing this issue, there was no feedback in the last 18 months, and it seems that the duplicates of this bug has been resolved.
