Problem with Firefox. about writecapture

[iamnoah]

Hmmm, so I don't think we can really say that it works in all other browsers. In Safari, FF and Chrome at least, 2 document.write calls are getting through, so I'd be surprised if the ads actually work like this.

Out of curiosity, what are you trying to do here? Why are you loading Google ads this way?

[bbaruela]

We do this way because we have a tag manager where we can choose which ads or tags are going to be loaded to the browser.

Do you have a public URL where I can view the ads as they're supposed to work and one replicating the problem? I don't see the same errors as you.

[bbaruela]

Yes. You may try this:
http://qatracking.clanteam.com/test_pages/browser/ads/tn_browser_ads_dc_publisher.php

Open that link to a Firefox with firebug installed for you to see the error message. And if you want to see what it will display when it has no error, open it to another browser such as chrome.

I'm not getting the same results as you.

So in Chrome, I see the table but nothing happens. In Firefox, I see the table and an adsense add underneath. In Safari, the page is overwritten by the ad. There is too much going on here, can you simplify the page down to a minimal HTML file with only the bare minimum JS needed?

Also, what version of Firefox is this in?

[bbaruela]

I made this html page that contains online the writeCapture call and includes the jquery and writeCapture js file.

Here is the link: http://animalianz.com/tntest.html

I'm using Firefox 3.6.8 with firebug installed. And to see the ad display, I'm using Chrome 4.0.249.43.

Hope this help you.

I really need help.I'm stock to this. Thank You.

It's actually not working in Chrome either. The ad is overwritting the whole page. You see the ad, but all other content is wiped out. It looks like the latest Firefox has a problem with the script, which is why you see an error, but it's not working in any case.

Unfortunately, the adsense code is heavily obfuscated, so debugging this isn't really feasible. writeCapture can't be 100% compatible with everything out there, and it's possible that the Adsense code is specifically designed to prevent dynamic loading like this.

I've added a section to the README entitled "What to try when writeCapture fails". I think the iframe approach might work for what you're trying to do. If you do find a way to make writeCapture work, please let me know.
