Description

Hi all,

I'm hoping that you can see something blatantly obvious that I've done wrong or missed.

Had Gadgets working in kune_0.2.0+b34_all.deb, after compiling and packaging kune_0.3.0+b23_all.deb from trunk, they all fail.

Did a clean install and clean database, nothing changed.

Google chrome's console shows that it's not able to talk to the cross-domain frame of the widget:

  JS Error - Uncaught TypeError: Object #<HTMLIFrameElement> has no method 'postMessage' [wave-rpc.js:601]

Firefox does the same thing:

Error: TypeError: i.postMessage is not a function
Source File: http://live.brizmun.org:8888/others/splash/js/wave-rpc.js
Line: 601

I'm not sure what else to check - comparing against what's served by kune.cc, I can't spot the difference.

Any ideas?

Whoops - here's a better link:
http://live.brizmun.org:8888/#!sandbox.docs.29.11

Did some more digging to try understand what it's doing. For some reason, gadgets.rpc._getTargetWin() is returning an iframe rather than a window object. Everything else (message, target origin) seems to match.

/* h = "wgadget_iframe_0" */

/* returns an iframe object, where .postMessage is useless */
i = gadgets.rpc._getTargetWin(h);
i.postMessage('{"not","a","real"}', 'http://message.net'');   // postMessage is not a valid function

/* returns a window object, where .postMessage is valid */
i = window.frames[h];
i.postMessage('{"not","a","real"}', 'http://message.net'');   // postMessage is a valid function

  • Status changed from New to Rejected
  • Resolution set to worksforme

We were/are using gadget without major problems in all of our releases.

Some comments:
1) Why do you compile yourself? Can you try with one of our provided packets?
ftp://ftp.ourproject.org/pub/kune/debian/unstable/
2) The only issue I remeber was something introduced with gadget height with this issue:
https://reviews.apache.org/r/8008/
but it was reverted in our last packages.
3) Can you test your gadgets in kune.cc (that are using the previous packages).

So a "works for me". Please feel free to reopen this.

PS: By the way your links are not working... I hope is something temporally ;-)
