Cannot edit text in customize journal style

[valiha]

Hi all, I just tried to edit some of the navlinks text in customize journal style (http://www.dreamwidth.org/customize/options?group=text), but navigation, entry and options aren't clickable, and neither is expand all. What might be the reason for this?

I'm looking at the edit page and it's still expanding/clicking for me, so I'm wondering what browser is being used, too--we can try debugging from there.

Latest Firefox (3.6.16), it just updated earlier this evening. I don't have any scripts affecting the site.

A couple things to try:

* Restart your browser and clear out your cache, then go back to the page and see if it works now.
* Go to Tools->Error Console, use the Errors tab, reload the customize journal page. See if any errors are coming up.

Clearing out my cache didn't make any difference, so I went ahead and used the error console, with the following result:

Error: syntax error
Source File: javascript:%20http://www.dreamwidth.org/customize/options?group=text
Line: 1, Column: 54
Source Code:
http://www.dreamwidth.org/customize/options?group=text

ETA: Well, it's definitely something with the browser on my home computer (or maybe the computer itself), because I was able to expand the sections and make the changes I wanted at a work computer. Can't figure out what to do with mine to debug it. :/

Well, that's weird. Some of the inline JavaScript appears to be giving an error to that particular browser. It's some time *after* the JavaScript that collapses the sections, since if you didn't have JS on at all, it would work just fine. But it doesn't go from there to making the expand work on collapsed sections. I'd love to replicate and fix, but, well, unfortunately it doesn't work for me. Hopefully someday we'll translate the JS over to jQuery and it will start working for you again, but that's...probably going to take some time, I'm sorry to say.

I don't mind it taking some time to fix since I can always use another computer if I really feel like making additional changes, and I'll try to figure out if I can do something from my end in the meantime. I was planning to upgrade to Firefox 4 soon, so maybe that will solve my problem. But really, it's an old computer I'm working with, and it has it's strange quirks. Thanks for the tip above, I'll try it again in case it works this time. :crosses fingers:

Yeah, if you ever find yourself in that situation, if you can temporarily disable JavaScript, you should be able to muddle through at least.
