navigator.taintEnabled

[anonymous]

We are removing navigator.taintEnabled from Gecko/Firefox. It seems jquery is using this non-standard property for feature detection.

Can you provide a link to where you see this being used? I don't see it in any jQuery core files.

IMO, Telling that this was reported by Anon. AIUI its not present in any *current* jQuery version.

Mozilla has had this listed in bugzilla and reports for a while, and is considering reversing the decision for now. Since more than jQuery have used it for browser detection [1]

It was present in 1.6.2 though. [2]

I suggest the ticket owner upgrade the jQuery version in their installation

(Note: Incase someone not involved in jQuery or Mozilla dev comes across this bug, please leave evang discussion out of the Mozilla Bug database, thanks)
