ID: 64873 Updated by: [email protected] Reported by: php dot net at wfredk dot com Summary: Comment voting buttons do not work on Booleans page -Status: Open +Status: Closed Type: Bug Package: Website problem Operating System: Windows, probably irrelevant PHP Version: Irrelevant -Assigned To: +Assigned To: googleguy Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Alright, there doesn't appear to be anything on this side that would have caused the error. There are some javascript bugs (in strict mode you get an origin error because of the way the mirrors are setup), but unless the problem persists this should only be a one off issue for most people. Feel free to reopen the bug if the issue crops up again. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-05-18 02:06:10] php dot net at wfredk dot com I'm not sure how to identify what mirror I was on - I copied the URL from Firefox's address bar into the bug report and thought that would identify the page adequately. I did see something in the lower right corner of the page saying "This mirror generously provided by Yahoo" if that helps... I was connected to the site from my office at MIT when I observed the problem. I won't be back there until Monday morning. I tried to vote today, I did not vote on May 14. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-05-18 01:35:18] [email protected] Can you tell me which mirror you were using when this error occurred. The link http://php.net/manual/en/language.types.boolean.php should redirect you to one of the local mirrors like us1.php.net or ca1.php.net or just the www.php.net. I can tell you that there is no obvious cause for why this error would have occurred today. Voting does not require that you sign in to any system, but there are certain restrictions on voting based on IP, mirrors, and number of incoming votes. I can see that on 2013-05-14 around the same time two votes were indeed placed on those two user contributed notes originating from the same IP address and mirror. They were both counted. Did you place the vote today or on the 14th? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-05-17 21:28:03] php dot net at wfredk dot com Description: ------------ On the page at http://php.net/manual/en/language.types.boolean.php I wanted to "vote up" the comment by "Steve" that "PHP does not break any rules with the values of true and false" and to vote down the comment by "geza at turigeza dot com" whose comment ignores the fact a non-empty string is TRUE. However, in each case when I pressed the "up" or "down" button, a red "X" was displayed with a tooltip that says "Error :(" I have not tried voting on any other pages, I don't know if this is a common problem. If a person has to be logged in or something to vote on comments, there should be annotations about that condition somewhere near the voting buttons. Otherwise, there should be useful error messages if something goes wrong. Test script: --------------- navigate to http://php.net/manual/en/language.types.boolean.php press an up or down vote button Expected result: ---------------- vote status changed Actual result: -------------- red "x" displayed with "Error :(" in a tooltip when the mouse hovers over the "x" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=64873&edit=1 -- PHP Webmaster List Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
