Getting warning message when javascript is not enabled in browser.
« on: July 08, 2009, 07:38:48 AM »
When javascript is disabled I'm getting the following message when going to the login page of dns-323:

Quote
Backup your files before proceeding!

To stabilize operation, please login and select TOOLS ---> RAID to reformat your device with an EXT2 file system.
Which is followed by OK button.

Firmware: 1.06

I'm not sure if this is counted as a bug, but at least it is something that I think should not happen. I do not dare to check what that OK button does if I is pressed. ;D

I haven't tested if this still happens with 1.08, could someone test this?

I think the proper way would be to tell user that he needs to enable javascript instead of this warning message.

What browser?  Try IE if you are having trouble.

The problem is not in the browser. You can get the same thing with for example IE8 if you disable scripting.

Tools->Internet Options->Security->Custom level... And from there Scripting->Activate scripting and set is Disable.

I encountered this problem as my browser's javascript was turned off and was very scared about that ATTENTION box that was under the login box.

This is not a serious bug, as most of the users have the java script enabled most of the time. But when java script is disabled and you do not know that it is, that warning will most probably scare you.
