http://127.0.0.1:2345/Models/ScriptSyntaxTree.js:51:33: CONSOLE ERROR ReferenceError: Can't find variable: Symbol
http://127.0.0.1:2345/Views/ObjectPreviewView.js:58:18: CONSOLE ERROR ReferenceError: Can't find variable: Symbol

http://127.0.0.1:2345/Views/SourceCodeTextEditor.js:95:78: CONSOLE ERROR ReferenceError: Can't find variable: Symbol

This is because the client doesn't have the WebPreference for Symbol enabled.

Should we expose ::setJavaScriptRuntimeFlags() in the GTK WebSettings API or is this considered temporary and thus overkill to expose?

We will eventually enable Symbol again. It was disabled until more support got added, as it was breaking sites like Facebook.

Comment 3 Philippe Normand 2015-04-13 03:18:53 PDT

It was enabled again in bug 143375 so let's close this bug :)
