Stuck loading

[Ivan Wilson]

One of our DFFS forms is not loading for certain records. It’s affecting the View and Edit forms. We don’t get any errors, but the form never gets past the “loading” screen.

I’ve tried debugging the code. It looks like it is getting stuck in the spjs.dffs.init function from DFFS_frontend.min.js. Any time I pause the debugger, this is where it takes me to.

Here is the subset of the code that it breaks on

        if (!spjs.dffs.error) {
            if (spjs.dffs.data.isSP10 || spjs.dffs.data.isSP13) {
                ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(function() {
                    spjs.dffs.loadConfig()
                }, "sp.js")
            } else {
                spjs.dffs.loadConfig()
            }
            setInterval(function() {
                // This is the line it breaks on
                jQspjs(".dffs-readonly").each(function(i, a) {
                    b = jQspjs(a).find("td.ms-formbody:first");
                    nTd = jQspjs(b).next();
                    e = b.find("span.ms-formvalidation");
                    c = nTd.find("span.ms-formvalidation");
                    if (e.length > 0 && c.length === 0) {
                        jQspjs.each(e, function(j, s) {
                            if (jQspjs.trim(jQspjs(s).text()) !== "") {
                                jQspjs(s).clone().appendTo(nTd)
                            }
                        })
                    }
                })
            }, 2500)
        }

Any idea why this would happen?

I have seen some strange issues when someone have cut and pasted the HTML code for an entire DFFS form inside a rich text field in the form. I have made some changes to prevent this in v4.4.5.27. If you use an older version you can try updating your DFFS version.

Thanks Alexander, the issue was with HTML in a rich text field. I tried v4.4.5.30, but we got the same issue. We have switched the field to plain text.

I’m glad you got it sorted out. What kind of HTML code was put in the field? – I tried to prevent this problem as mentioned, but it might have been another issue I didn’t foresee.

Here’s the HTML. Nothing stands out to me as an obvious issue

Thanks, the problem with this HTML is that it contains the class ms-formtable – this made a function in my code a bit confused… I’ll make a little change in the next release to prevent this from causing this error.
