0) Enable the beta feature 1) https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Lightbox_demo#Test_Images or [[w:it:Special:Random]] 2) Click one of the thumbs, or the expand icon I. Expected: something happens. II. Observed: nothing happens. 3) Click again I. Expected: no idea. II. Observed: the file description opens. Nothing relevant can be seen in the browser console, I think, only stuff like TypeError: document.getElementById(...) is null or "TypeError: localStorage is null" [object Error] Oh, I tried again and this popped up while the file description opened: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x8000ffff (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED) [nsIPrefBranch.getCharPref]" nsresult: "0x8000ffff (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://browser/content/aboutDialog.js :: init :: line 14" data: no] Firefox 27.0.1, Linux 3.13.6-200.fc20.x86_64. On Chromium, I see that this URL is opened: <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Lightbox_demo#mediaviewer/File:Wikimedia Foundation 2013 All Hands Offsite - Day 2 - Photo 24.jpg> and a viewer is displayed.
Can't reproduce on FF 28.0/Linux. Do you have any unusual setting in Firefox? Did earlier MultimediaViewer versions work?

Confirmed in safe mode (no extensions enabled).
0. Firefox 29 on Fedora 20 1. Create new private window 2. Go to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Lightbox_demo#Test_Images (Enabling "Beta" for MMViewer not needed anymore on mw.org) No matter if logged in or not, clicking a thumbnail works for me. > "TypeError: localStorage is null" [object Error] Nemo: In Firefox' about:config, is dom.storage.enabled set to true? Still an issue?

Worked for me too as logged out just now; also as logged in, once I re-enabled MMV in preferences. Nothing changed here though (other than having 29.0 now). Oh well. > > > "TypeError: localStorage is null" [object Error] > > Nemo: In Firefox' about:config, is dom.storage.enabled set to true? > Still an issue? No, it was false, but I don't think it's related after all, or no longer: I've tried switching it on and off a few times and nothing changed. (For now I'll keep it enabled; can't remember why it was false, probably since many years ago.) The other errors are also still there (together with some new things) and appear to be unrelated as well.
Probably a duplicate of bug 64525, forgot to re-check this bug when I fixed that. localStorage seems to be null on some browsers for some privacy settings, like incognito mode.
