JIRA 6.1-m02 Top Navigation Bar disappears when custom js is imported

[Akira Tsuchiya]

The Top Navigation Bar disappears in JIRA 6.1-m02 when the steps below are applied.
This problem does not happen in JIRA 6.0.x.

Step 1. The we resource below is defined in the atlassian-plugin.xml.

<web-resource key="issue-resources" name="Issue Resources">
<resource type="download" name="customMade.js" location="/js/customMade.js"/>
</web-resource>

Step 2. The line below is described in the target vm file.

$webResourceManager.requireResource("[atlassian plugin key]:issue-resources")

Step 3. The vm file is loaded in a browser.

I want to know the workaround.

[Akira Tsuchiya]

I do not fully understand UI-related issues in JIRA 6.x.

I found that <param name="ieonly" value="false"/> is necessary in JIRA 6.0.x.

And I am now confused about it in JIRA 6.1.

Refer to the new question below.

[Akira Tsuchiya]

In atlassian-plugin.xml, describe the we-resource like below.

<web-resource key="some-resources" name="Some Resources">
<resource type="download" name="some.js" location="/js/some.js">
<param name="ieonly" value="false"/>
</resource>
</web-resource>

Point 1.

If the some.js uses jquery.js, do NOT import jquery.js like below.

<resource type="download" name="jquery.js" location="/js/jquery.js"/>

It is because JIRA 6.x uses jquery.js by default.

Point 2.

Set the <param> attribute in your custom js as below.

<param name="ieonly" value="false"/>

This is for workarounding browser-specific bugs and the setting is effective from IE, Firefox, Chrome through Safari.

[Holger Schimanski]

You mean in Point 2, that you *have to include* the ieonly param in the atlassian-plugin.xml even if it is set to false? Sounds strange. Did you try to remove the param?

[Akira Tsuchiya]

This depends on browser type.

It is OK with Chrome.

But the problem happens with IE, Firefox, and Safari.

I think it is related to Compatibility View.
