on-line page not working with Windows Vista + IE 7.0.6001
« on: September 01, 2009, 06:45:11 AM »
On http://passwordmaker.org/passwordmaker.html

IE displays the page but does not generate a password.

The error reported is

   Line 440 Char 1
   Error: 'AddEventListener' is undefined
   Code: 0

Any clue as how to make it work ?

Thank you in anticipation.

IE hasn't been supported for a long time.

Use Firefox.

Sometimes one may be forced to use IE, e.g. at work or more likely at an internet access terminal in a library where you can't even get to a desktop, never mind add a widget / add-on.

I suppose the mobile version still works, but that sends your password across the net.

Also, from the on-line PasswordMaker page:

Ooops... my bad, I though you were talking about the extension/addon...

So this was with IE7? or 8?

The line number tells me IE 6 or 7 (I just tried all three, and none works)

I wonder how long that's been broken? VERY simple fix however. I'll update everything shortly.

Great, thanks!  I'm sure the OP will be pleased too.

The fix has been committed (thanks, Miquel). Did you have a chance to move it out to the sourceforge site?

It's on the main wiki site now. I think I have the sourceforge site redirecting it to the wiki version as well.

But yea, it's up.
