Safari Diigolet 3.1b506 Bookmark title bug resolved

    Diigolet in 3.1.2 (5525.20.1) on Mac OS X 10.5.5.

    Issue is most noticeable when bookmarking content from older Plone servers.

    Example: try using Diigolet to bookmark
    http://plone.org/documentation/how-to/cookie-duration

    In the source of that page I note,



    ----

    At a glance:

    * the issue does not affect Diigo 3.1.6.5 in Firefox 3.0.3

    * the issue does not affect sites running version 3.x of Plone, for example I can use Diigolet | Bookmark OK on http://centrim.mis.brighton.ac.uk/Members/gjp4/2008/11/2008-11-10-oa

    Postscript: you can't see the HTML in this forum but you can see it if you visit the pages :)

    Since opening this topic I noticed a few other pages/sites that don't work with Diigolet, my most recent example:

    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Approving+articles+and+edits

    Suggested priority for this issue: very low.

    Workarounds include:

    * view HTML source of page, copy the text within the 'title' tags, if necessary edit the text in an external editor, paste into Diigolet bookmark dialogue

    * more simply :) use something other than Diigolet, although that's an annoyance :(

    Best,
    Graham

    In Safari?

    Experimenting with a URL not previously bookmarked by me:

    http://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/

    [x] Diigolet 3.1b506 in Safari 3.2.1 (5525.27.1): bugged
    [√] Diigolet 3.1b506 in Firefox 3.0.5: not bugged

    [√] Diigolet 3.1b506 in WebKit-SVN-r39474 (2008-12-26): not bugged :)

    All on Mac OS X 10.5.6, Intel.

    [ ] Diigolet in Chrome: not tested, should I do so?

    [x] Diigolet 3.1b506 in Chrome 1.0.154.36, Windows XP: bugged

    Another example:
    http://storagemojo.com/2007/02/26/netapp-weighs-in-on-disks/

    = Workaround =

    1. present Diigolet 3.1b506

    2. do not click Bookmark

    3. highlight something

    The result of this workaround for this particular URL is demonstrated at http://www.diigo.com/04n73

    = Limitation of the workaround =

    Whilst the highlight has produced a properly titled bookmark, the Bookmark dialogue does not show the title.

    = Additional workaround =

    4. reload the page

    5. re-present Diigolet.

    Now, it's possible to use the Bookmark dialogue for tasks such as, 'Add to a List'.

    = Additional testing =

    I have not tested with bug-related URLs other than
    http://storagemojo.com/2007/02/26/netapp-weighs-in-on-disks/

    Now using Diigolet 3.1b523, I can not reproduce the bug with e.g.
    http://old.plone.org/documentation/how-to/cookie-duration

    I guess that the more recent versions of Diigolet include a fix.

    Thanks, Joel!
