I don't like being stuck on a web page. Only someone that hates me will lock any possible action.

But whenever I try visit any specific hat on the main Winter Bash page by a direct URL - that hat will do exactly this: (example)

See this little pink X? It won't budge. It ignores my clicks. I am forever stuck with that popover until I close the web page or manually change the URL. (clicking outside the box also won't close it, guess by design)

It happens with all hats, here is another one for you.

Reproduced with:

  • Chrome 31.0.1650.63 m
  • Internet Explorer 11
  • Firefox 25.0.1

(under Windows 7)

  • I think it may just be browser specific. I had this bug with Chrome, but on IE9 didn't have it.

  • @hichris123 happens with IE11 and Firefox 25. IE9 only code isn't very good.

  • @ShadowWizard are you sure that its isn't a Z-Indexing issue? that would explain quite a bit ;)

  • @ehime it's fixed now and no, it wasn't z-index issue. As balpha said, the click was ignored in the specific case of directly browsing to a hat.

I'm working around an issue with Chrome's history API (using this hack), and I missed one place where I have to do some special handling. Fixed now.

  • Cool, weird that I didn't see any JS error though.

  • The click was just ignored, there was no error.
