Tracker, please see the sample issue report linked below for an example of
a well reported issue)
Sample issue report:
http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/wiki/IssueReportSample

Found in GWT Release (e.g. 1.5.3, 1.6 RC):
gwt 2.0.3

Encountered on OS / Browser (e.g. WinXP, IE6-7, FF3):
IE6 only, it works fine on IE7, Firefox and chrome

Detailed description (please be as specific as possible):
Its just a harmless code, i dont know why a label cannot be initialised in
this context.
I have stripped down the project code to the point of error, which I am suprised is
merely a new Label being created.

Line 17 in Link.java is the line: "Label linkText = new Label(text);"

Here is stack trace for reference:

Shortest code snippet which demonstrates issue (please indicate where
actual result differs from expected result):

//-- Entry point class:
public class TestProject implements EntryPoint 
{
    public void onModuleLoad() {
        Link test =  new Link("something");     
        RootPanel.get().add(test);
    }
}

//-- Custom widget class:
public class Link extends Composite 
{
    private SimplePanel container = new SimplePanel();

    public Link(String text) {
        super();
        initWidget(container);

        HorizontalPanel horizontalPanel = new HorizontalPanel();        
        Label linkText = new Label(text);
        horizontalPanel.add(linkText);

        container.setWidget(horizontalPanel);
    }
}

Other browsers run without any issues and show the text "something" on screen.
I cant tell my users to stop using ie6. Its an old browser but many people still use
it nevertheless.

Please suggest a workaround for this issue.

4 days and no comments :(
on my end, i tried a lot of things, but i guess that wreched label does not wish to
render itself. Maybe a try-catch block could come to my rescue, but showing a user
a blank portion instead of a Label isnt a viable option,

This bug is indeed a show stopper for me.

The same issue we have in IE7 and IE8 (GWT 2.1.0) on window refresh (F5). In Firefox
and Chrome works fine.
The stack trace is a little bit different (I mean another line in BrowserChannelServer.java,
but it might differ because of GWT version):

I got a similar exception (description: Unspecified error.) with GWT 2.1.0 on IE8 when
adding an Image to a FlowPanel. When the FlowPanel is first displayed there is no problem,
but if it gets unloaded an loaded again - I get the exception. Digging into the call
trace I saw something about Image$State, so I replaced the Image with an HTML and it
solved my problem.

Any chance you've hard coded the user.agent selection property to compile only for a
single browser?

I'm getting the same exception on IE7: 

com.google.gwt.core.client.JavaScriptException: (Error): Unspecified error. number:
-2147467259 description: Unspecified error. 

If I disable the images with the IE developer toolbar, the exception isn't thrown anymore,
what kind of details would you like Fred ?

Reported by diaz.salvador on 2011-01-20 12:15:40

[dankurka]

More details:
* I can now say with certainty that some images are throwing the exceptions. Each one
of these exception-throwing images is placed in a cell of a ScrollTable (the incubator
version) ie: 
scrollTable.getDataTable().setWidget(rowIdx, colIdx, new Image(imgUrl))
* Each one of the above described Images throws the exception (apparently as soon as
IE has finished loading the images, whether from cache or from the remote server)
* The full layout of the Composite in which the images are shown is pretty complicated,
but 
* I found a workaround: instead of using Image widgets, I just use ImageElement instead
and this effectively stops the exceptions. Maybe it has something to do with the LoadEvent
handling in the IE permutations ? I remember there was a bug prior to GWT 2.1 that
caused the LoadEvents to misfire sometimes...

Anyway, IE can't die soon enough :(

I get the same exception on ie6, ie7 and ie8, in two different and independent cases
(let's call them A and B).

Case B may involve an Image as in comment #9, but case A clearly doesn't.

I have a really hard time getting a nice stack trace or any context really, IE only
gives me "Anonymous function" (the one returned by entry_0()) and their tools really
suck, even on ie8. Stepping over a JS statement can take around 1 minute in some cases,
with the UI frozen...).

I edited the generated JS and added code to print $location_0[] (although $stackDepth
is 0, so I'm assuming here that the content of $location_0[] is still "relevant", even
though it is technically stale). Here is what I gathered.

Case A: the exception is triggered somewhere in a call to super.onBrowserEvent(event)
in an overloaded MyTextArea.onBrowserEvent() (MyTextArea extends TextArea) (overloaded
to catch the PASTE event, not that it should matter).

Case B: right after the completion of an XHR, I believe somewhere around the call to
the xhr.onload callback. This callback triggers the replacement of an Image by another.
This is similar to comment #9 because the exception is thrown around the time an image
is reinserted after being removed. I do not use a ScrollTable, however.

The app works fine with Chrome, Firefox, Safari.

I am also getting the similar error on IE 8 and GWT 2.2.0-2.3.0. It works fine with
GWT 2.0.4. The cause of the problem is unclear in my situation. It only happens during
refresh or reloading of data. Is there any fix for this issue in GWT?

On analyzing i found that issue is due to GWT version upgrade, when you compile the
same code using GWT 2.0.3 or less versions, the issue is not reproducible. 

Reported by manoj444 on 2011-08-23 05:09:51

I was having

public class foo implements Serializable
{
    public enum RequestStatus
    {
        PROCESSING, VALIDATION_ERROR, OTHER_ERROR, DONE
    }
..
..
}

For me error is gone after making enum also Serializable

[dankurka]

according to: http://davidwalsh.name/image-load-event
we seemed to have created a workaround by first creating an Image Object (new Image()),
adding this to an component (comp.add(image)) and lastly set the src url (image.setURL(..)).

Reported by dominik.gaetjens on 2011-09-02 12:07:36

The exception occurred even when we are not using images also, kindly see the attached
simple example in description, something is changed in the GWT new versions on the
onModuleLoad() implementations, that lead to the issue :)

hey there,
the issue is coming again for some different scenario.
I already implemented this : 
   imgOpen = new Image();
   this.add(imgOpen);
   imgOpen.setUrl("discBtn_open.png");

earlier it was :
   imgOpen = new Image("discBtn_open.png");
   this.add(imgOpen);

which was throwing the exception.

The images are getting reset on --> onClick() event. There are all total 11 different
images. Earlier it was throwing 8 exceptions on single click. Now it is throwing 4
exceptions on single click. The images are getting disabled/enabled on click event.

The difference between the two scenarios:
 1. The above mentioned implementation is working fine when all the images are getting
enabled (setEnabled(true).
 2. The above mentioned implementation is not good enough to handle the exception when
only one of the 11 images is getting enabled.

Please help me out. Below is the error trace :

Hi,

You are getting this exception only after upgrading or from before itself?
If not then revert the newly added codes and check(repeat until the
exception goes)
Am sure the problem will be with our code, if find which part of creates

This exception is coming only after upgradation to GWT 2.3. Its working fine on GWT
1.7. The problem seemed to be with Image(str) implementation which i already fixed.
Now, the exception is thrown twice on one click.
Can't find, which piece of code is throwing this exception.

Thanks,
Vivek

Had the same problem here.   Finally worked around it by replacing the Image with a
Label and setting a background-image style attribute with the url of the image (and
width and height).  This totally solved the problem for us.  Adding and removing these
divs from the dom does not cause the exception in IE.  For sanity, I put the old code
with the Images back and the exceptions fire every time.

hey,
got the issue.. the problem was that if u toggle the Image enable/disable more than
once, it was throwing exception.

Had the same issue with GWT 2.3.0 and IE8.

Nothing from the things above could be reproduced at our site.

BUT, luckily: it's fixed in a newer version of GWT.

Turning Compatibility View is not permanent solution right? We can insist
all the clients to turn Compatibility view on.
