Firefox 4 issues with psessionid and javascript

Rhythmyx Technical Discussion
1

In FF 4, after logging into the content explorer, the applet doesn’t load the majority of times. There is a javascript error that says:

“Error: pssessionid is not defined
Source File: https://RHYTHMYXSERVER:PORT/Rhythmyx/sys_resources/js/browser.js
Line: 430”

Rhythmyx/sys_resources/js/browser.js
ln 430, change
if(pssessionid == undefined || pssessionid.length == 0)

to

if(typeof(pssessionid) == ‘undefined’ || pssessionid.length == 0)

That resolves the issue. However, note that sys_resources is commonly affected by patches and upgrades. I will file this issue with Percussion TS and report back the bug number if one is assigned.
