Bindows 4.1.1
Ran posted in Bindows Clients, Developing in Bindows on March 20th, 2012
Due to changes introduced in Firefox 11 we created a quick update version of Bindows - version 4.1.1
Customers with an active maintenance plan will get the updated retail version directly from us.
The apps on the Bindows site are already updated.

Are the free gauges concerned by these Firefox 11 changes ?

The free gauges will be updated to support Firefox 11 in the future.
We do not have a release date yet.

Hello
I Have been working with bindows gauges for a couple of weeks and I really like the simplicity for create them, also I have the problem with firefox and I started debugging gauge2.js file and I found the problem line :
noNativeOuterHTML: typeof HTMLElement != “undefined” && typeof HTMLElement.prototype.outerHTML == “undefined”,
(The problem is to ask for the property HTMLElement.prototype.outerHTML)
I just change it for
noNativeOuterHTML: typeof HTMLElement != “undefined” && false,
and now it is working fine in firefox 11 and 12
Thanks!

Hello Jorge,
The fix is not correct. It might work for a particular case but will break other browsers.
That fix disables the feature detection, and it will break older FF browsers.
Sorry.

How about this fix then ?
replace
noNativeOuterHTML: typeof HTMLElement != “undefined” && typeof HTMLElement.prototype.outerHTML == “undefined”,
with
noNativeOuterHTML: typeof HTMLElement != “undefined” && !(”outerHTML” in HTMLElement.prototype),

Hans,
The fix is also not correct. It might work for a particular case but will break other browsers.
That fix disables the feature detection, and it will break older FF browsers.
In few days we are going to release a retail version of the gauges that is based on the latest Bindows library (and will work fine in FF11,12,13).
The free gauges package will be updated later on (no release date yet).

strange, from what I understand from the code my fix does exactly the same as the original code. I’ve so far tested in chrome, IE8 and 9, FF 11, 12 and 3.6 and they all seem to work. I’ll try to test some more versions.
In any case, with the newer FF having this auto update feature I prefer it to work in newer versions instead of trying to support ancient browsers.
Thank you for a great library which with this fix is usable again in most browsers!
