Using top.location.search - Permission denied in IE8 #321

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Include IE8.js to a page
2. Load page in an iframe rendered in another domain using Internet Explorer 
8's IE7 browser mode

(Could not find real 7 for testing right about now, but IE9.js 2.1beta4 
includes the same test and that's used with 8 anyway)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected output would be no errors in Script console, but we get "Permission 
denied IE8.js, line 6 character 152"

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

IE: 8 (in IE7 browser mode)
IE8.js: 2.1(beta4)
Windows: XP

Please provide any additional information below.

IE8 script seems to check top.location.search for 'ie7_off' string using 
regexp. Shouldn't it use plain location.search / window.location.search instead 
since the page in question might be rendered in an iframe where the top url 
will be out of our control.

the workaround is download the file on your server, and edit it as following:
<code>if(/ie7_off/.test(top.location.search)</code>
to 
<code>if(/ie7_off/.test(location.search)</code>
