Someone want to verify this is evang? I can log in here with IE, not with
Mozilla or Netscape 6.2.
This is Oracles fairly large ASP-type thingy for small business
services...previous to their "upgrade" last week, I could log in, but some of
the JS on the time entry page didn't allow me to submit. Now I can't even log
in. I can "submit", but it comes up with the invalid email/password page. IE
logs in fine. Is it doing something stupid with javascript? I don't get how a
form doesn't even work.
This is the ONLY site I still need IE for :(. And I need it every day.

We've got a number of things going on here, none of which have to do
with JS Engine proper. Take a look at this line from the HTML source:
<form method="post" action="/pages/nllogin.jsp"
onsubmit="return (checkemail(email,false,true) &&
checknotempty(document.forms[0].password,'Password'))">
The onsubmit attribute looks like it has a mistake:
checkemail(email,false,true)
This doesn't make sense to me, because |email| is not properly identified.
Shouldn't it be |document.forms[0].email|,
just like |document.forms[0].password| ?
Indeed, load the given URL, enter a valid-looking email address such as
"aaa@bbb.com" into the email textbox, and then key this into the URL bar:
javascript: alert(checkemail(document.forms[0].email,false,true))
You will get "true" in Mozilla. If you alter the email to an invalid
format such as "aaa@bbb" or "aaabbb.com", you will get false. Everything
is working fine! (Note: I'm using Mozilla binary 20011030xx on WinNT).
But if you key this into the URL bar:
javascript: alert(checkemail(email,false,true))
you don't get any return, only an error in the JavaScript Console:
Error: email is not defined
Same problem in NN4.7. I tried to check this in IE, but the latest
version I have is IE4, and I can't even get the URL to load with it.

I'm going to reassign this to Evangelism, because I think the HTML
is invalid. When they refer to |email| in the script, then the DOM
will try to resolve that as |window.email|, which doesn't exist.
It should be properly qualified as |document.forms[0].email|.
Note the action attribute of the <form> points us to the "Invalid login" page,
https://system.oraclesmallbusiness.com/pages/nllogin.jsp
I think the JavaScript error is causing the <form> to default to
its action attribute, which is the error page.
cc'ing Vlad to see if that's right -

When I log in with IE5/5.5/6, it goes through the nllogin page. Seems to do a 0
second refresh, or maybe a redirect. Kind of a lame set up. I couldn't even find
any contact information when I tried to contact someone about Netscape 6.x
support. When I told my boss to bitch at them, he told me to just use IE.
I hate javascript =/

Jeremy: with IE5/5.5/6, what happens if you go to the site and try the
experiment at 2001-11-01 23:26 above? I assume that as in Mozilla,
if you key in "aaa@bbb.com" into the email field, and then enter
javascript: alert(checkemail(document.forms[0].email,false,true))
into the URL bar, you will get "true". But what happens if you enter
javascript: alert(checkemail(email,false,true))
Do you still get "true" in IE5/5.5/6? Or do you get an error?

IE6 says:
Line: 1
Error: 'email' is undefined
Code: 0
It logs in fine, though. I stoped it at nllogin, and did a view source:
<html><head><meta http-equiv='Content-Type' content='text/html; charset=iso-
8859-1'></head><body onload="if (document.forms[0].x.value=='g'){document.forms
[0].x.value='b';document.location='/pages/home/myroles.nl';} else if
(document.forms[0].x.value=='b') {document.forms[0].x.value='f';history.back();}
else {document.forms[0].x.value='b';history.forward();}"><form><input
type='hidden' name='x' value='g'></form></body></html>

they issued a new release on 12/27/2001 and you can sign in now. We are working
with them to improve the support. See bug 109146 for another issue.

Linux 2002011008, still can't log in. Invalid password/email, though IE works fine.
No JS errors, just 30 or so warnings (reassignment and undeclared).
Can someone double check here and reopen?

Jeremy,
Is your account a test account? Test accounts expire after a certain period (14
days?).
Also, do you have strict warnings turned on in JS? That can cause exceptions to
be thrown in circumstances that are not technically errors. I just logged in an
account I created a few days ago using Mozilla 2002 01 11/Win2k with no warning
in the JS console (without strict turned on).

It was a real account, but we have since stoped our use of OSB for other issues
with the interface (even in IE), so I can't VERIFY this. Ignore comment 8. Thanks.
