Can load the site, but clicking the "enter store" gets me a parsing
error. I can get in with Safari and/or Opera.
I assume it's an issue with the site, as I can no longer get into it
with SM 1.1.18 either...
The Web server is sniffing for "Firefox" when it should sniff for
"Gecko" -- if sniffing is valid at all.
For an explanation of sniffing, see my
<http://www.rossde.com/internet/Webdevelopers.html#sniff>. To defeat
sniffing, use spoofing; see my
<http://www.rossde.com/internet/intr_gloss.html#spoof>. For an
explanation of why sniffing for "Firefox" is wrong, see
<http://wiki.mozilla.org/User:Sardisson/Gecko_is_Gecko>.
After I have breakfast, I'll submit a Tech Evangelism bug report against
the Web site.
I understand about sniffing - that's what I figured. What's odd is that
I've been browsing that site with SM for weeks waiting for a restock of
an item with no problem...until last night. So they must have broke it
updating the site.
...now I gotta figure out a way to get this info to the site manager.
I already sent an E-mail message to <[email protected]>, which is
the only address on the Web site and the only address in the WhoIs entry
for the spruebrothers.com domain. However, I think you too should send
a message; the more messages that are sent, the more likely corrective
action will be taken.
Read your bug report - I'll forward an excerpt from this thread to
SprueBros also.
