This is not a b2evo bug ( hence why I moved it ), it's caused by one of the scripts on your page that adds a cookie, you can test this by disabling javascript and clearing your cookies and you won't have any problems.

A good starting point is this piece of javascript :

<script type="text/javascript">
document.cookie="w=w; path";
var altastat_c="N";

Thanks! I had the same problem. All of a sudden I no longer could visit my blog via Firefox. I had to use Opera or Safari. I've deleted the cookies and now everything is okay again.

Is there a possibility to prevent these errors? Why do they happen? What are the consequences of removing the code in your reply, ¥åßßå?

Hi Nomad,
The problem in this case is that a third party javascript on the page is setting a cookie which is conflicting with one of b2evo's variables.

The only solution is to remove the script or rename the cookie variables it uses

It might be the statistic script? that's the only javascript. I've used it for over a year now and this problem has never occured before upgrading from 0.91. to Florida

This is the code

<script type="text/javascript">

<!--
var aufloesung = '';
var farbtiefe = '';
var referer = '';
var pfad = '';
var java = '';
var plugins;
var cookies;
var rnd = Math.random()*99999;
var innen_aufloesung;

if(self.innerHeight){// all except Explorer
innen_aufloesung = self.innerWidth + "x" + self.innerHeight;
}
else if(document.documentElement && document.documentElement.clientHeight){ // Explorer 6 Strict Mode
innen_aufloesung = document.documentElement.clientWidth + "x" + document.documentElement.clientHeight;
}
else if(document.body){ // other Explorers
innen_aufloesung = document.body.clientWidth + "x" + document.body.clientHeight;
}

aufloesung = screen.width+'x'+screen.height;
referer = "" + escape(top.document.referrer);
farbtiefe = screen.colorDepth;
pfad = escape(location.href);
java = navigator.javaEnabled();
cookies = navigator.cookieEnabled;
for(i=0;i<navigator.plugins.length;++i){
plugins = plugins + "|" + navigator.plugins[i].name;
}

var jetzt = new Date();
var Unterschied = jetzt.getTimezoneOffset() / 60;

document.write("<img height=0 width=0 src='http://antropologi.info/stwcounter/counter.php?stwc_cz=1&aflsg=" + aufloesung + "&innen_aufloesung=" + innen_aufloesung + "&referer=" + referer + "&farbtiefe=" + farbtiefe + "&js=yes&java=" + java + "&plugins=" + plugins + "&cookies=" + cookies + "&zzone=" + Unterschied + "&pfad=" + pfad + "&rnd=" + rnd + "'>");
//-->
</script>

I think the counter is [url=http://www.stwc-counter.de/]stwc-counter[/url]. I could only retrieve the latest version, probably not yours.

The w does exist in B2evo as $w for week (probably week number). The good news is, I couldn't find a w for cookie in the latest version of stwc, so you probably solve your conflict if you update your counter.

Good luck

My error message was a bit different, the illegal character was related to users. And it just occured once with Firefox, no I don't have any problems more.

Yes you're right it's the Stwc-counter. I use version 3.4
