NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR with XHTML mime type

Description

In safari 3.1 on Mac I get the following error:

Error: NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: DOM Exception 7

This occurs when using SimpleModal 1.1.1 (googling the error shows it happening with multiple plugins, though). Example of code usage can be found at http://www.nationalscholastic.org/headcount/meet/41 (although currently I've reverted the mime type to text to prevent this error)

This only started to happen once I changed the mime type for my pages to application/xhtml+xml. It seems to be caused by "div.innerHTML=wrap[1]+elem+wrap[2];" on line 22 (of the minified code). My assumption is that it doesn't like using innerHTML.

A bit more playing around and it seems the error is caused by Safari trying to validate the innerHTML content (which makes sense since the page is being sent as XML and that should be valid). SimpleModal was trying to set the innerHTML to "<div>" first, and then to the actual content in a second call. Setting it to "<div>" is what was failing since the closing tag was missing. Not sure where the fault lies here, JQuery or SimpleModal.

In the SimpleModal source, try changing instances of:

$('<div>')

with:

$('<div/>')

component: core → plugin
keywords: → simplemodal
resolution: → invalid
status: new → closed

It's logical that xml pages require correct html strings.

I'll close now, please let the owner of SimpleModal know about this so it can be fixed.

Replying to [ticket:3071 parrots]:

In safari 3.1 on Mac I get the following error: Error: NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: DOM Exception 7 This occurs when using SimpleModal 1.1.1 (googling the error shows it happening with multiple plugins, though).

I am getting a similar error:

The following contents saved as somepage.xhtml

will throw

jquery-1.6.2.js:6111 NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: DOM Exception 7: An attempt was made to modify an object where modifications are not allowed.

in safari.

which is line

div.innerHTML = wrap[1] + elem + wrap[2];

in the jquery-1.6.2.js

Thanks
