"Instructions" grid does not display in Edge browser

[Raceous]

The latest 1Across grid, "Instructions", does not display in Microsoft Edge or Internet Explorer on Windows 10. Here is a screenshot from Edge. (Enlarging the Edge window does not help.) The appearance in IE is similar.

Hmm, I have zero access right now to a Windows machine, unfortunately.

If you can bring up the JavaScript console and see if there are any error messages, that might help.

Another useful piece of info would be whether some older grid works (to identify if the issue is limited to the current puzzle or to some recent core software change)

The previous 3 grids have also stopped working. LP.html and NJC.html appear the same as above. WH.html (Wormholes) appears as a completely blank page. Screenshots of console output follow. (Let me know if you would prefer these as text)

Looks like the error thrown at exolve-m.js:610 is the/a core problem. This code was indeed added when I added non-English support recently.

try { languageScript = 'Devanagari' scriptRE = new RegExp('\p{Script=' + languageScript + '}', 'u') scriptLowerCaseRE = new RegExp('\p{Lowercase}', 'u') } catch { }

Can you please type these lines in the browser's JavaScript console, one at a time, and let me know what error messages pop up, when you get the chance. I'm expecting some syntax errors. And then I want to check if the syntax errors go away with some easy fixes.

Reopened In.html and copied the whole code fragment:

OK, thanks! Sorry, but we'll have to drill down a bit more. Here are variants aht ablate various aspects of the above. Please try them separately.

1. try { languageScript = 'Devanagari' catch { }

2. scriptLowerCaseRE = new RegExp('\p{Lowercase}', 'u')

3. scriptRE = new RegExp('test1', 'u')

4. scriptRE = new RegExp('\test2', 'u')

5. try { scriptRE = new RegExp('test1', 'u') catch { }

6. try { scriptRE = new RegExp('\test1', 'u') catch { }

Or anything that useful variation can think of :-). Thanks!

Debugged through discussion, thanks!

Fixed with v0.73.

Verified that the grid can now be viewed in Edge.
