NS_ERROR_DOM_SECURITY_ERR about dom-monster HOT 9 CLOSED

Seems like you're on some older version of Firefox? I've tried with Firefox 3.6.13 Gecko/20101203 and all works good. Is this reproducible?

I am no longer at the workstation this occurred on, but it is doing the same thing on my home computer which has that same version of Firefox you used.

Did you try analyzing the same website, http://www.web.com?

looks like another occurence:
Error [Exception... "Security error" code: "1000" nsresult: "0x805303e8 (NS_ERROR_DOM_SECURITY_ERR)" location: "http://mir.aculo.us/dom-monster/dommonster.js?14991 Line: 252"] while analyzing page.
(not sure about the 14991)

the page was http://www.gmx.net/

(I have a lot of plugins installed...)

The same page with Google Chrome 8.0.552.237 brings up another result:
Error TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of null while analyzing page.

With Opera 11 alias
Opera/9.80 (Windows NT 5.1; U; de) Presto/2.7.62 Version/11.00
the problem is yet another:
Error ReferenceError: Security error: attempted to read protected variable while analyzing page.

Hope it helps, cool bookmarklet, keep going

When I tried the version I forked today I do not see this error. The version on http://mir.aculo.us/dom-monster/ still has the error.

Seems we might be a bit out of luck, at least on Firefox. http://www.mrclay.org/2008/09/06/case-of-the-ns_error_dom_security_err/

from dom-monster.

How about a try/catch to insulate this issue to allow the code to keep working instead of the nasty error?

I can update my fork and send you an update if you'd like.

Charles: but that's exactly what we do, we wrap everything in a try/catch and just let the specific error fail, continuing on with others. :) of course, welcome any patches!
