• Component: DOM
• Status: CLOSED FIXED

[Krishna]

Steps to reproduce:
1. Load the URL
2. In 'Create your own trip' section, Select 'cars only' option OR select the car image. Enter "Bos" as the pickup location. Enter appropriate pickup and drop-off date and time. Now Select the 'Search for car' link.
3. Verify that the corresponding page is displayed with all available full size rental cars.
Expected Result:
Result page is loaded completely and and user is able to view the details and select the first car
Actual Result:
Result page is partially loaded and user is not able to view the details and select the first car

I can't reproduce this bug with Version 2.0.3 (418.3).

Page seems to full load in TOT, but nothing happens when I select the first car. Changed Version to reflect that this is also a problem in TOT.

Expedia populates car rental entries by replacing comments in HTML with actual data. In the S60 browser code base,comment nodes are not created when <!--c--> is encountered. 

Here is piece of HTML that causes the problem on the S60 browser:
function writeCarRow2(s, c, v)
{
s = s.replace(/<!--C-->/,c.carccart);
....
}

For the Safari browser, Expedia sends out "&lt;!--c--&gt;" instead of "<!--c-->" and thats why the string replace works fine.

This would work on the S60 HW if fix for #5312 is available.

Given previous comment, should the PlatformOnly keyword be added to this bug?

I filed Bug 9165 to cover the ToT (tip-of-tree) WebKit issue, so I'm adding PlatformOnly to this bug and changing Version back to 312.x.

This search results page for Expedia seems to do some user-agent sniffing.  This is HIGHLY SPECULATIVE, but the issue MIGHT be a server-side issue where the page might hang because it doesn't know what to output given the user agent string.  (Note that this is easily testable--just fake a user agent string to see the content change.)

I haven't completed testing on Bug 9165 yet (see Bug 9165 Comment #4), but it looks like if a WebKit-esque user agent string is sent, you will get the desired "<!--c-->" output on the page.

S60 Bug 9189 may also be related (or may cause similar problems to be exhibited as Bug 9165).

Fix taken from Tiger branch (see comments)

- documentElement optimization should be like in tot
- no need to change tokenizer constructor defaults, just change it where it is constructed
- check if parser change in tot needs to be brought in as well
