Thanks for the information, Sebastian. Let's hope MySpace fixes this soon.

Reading further:

the simplest fix is probably wrapping the status read in a try-catch
.

Sounds like it is a firefox issue that Myspace simply needs to workaround in their xhtmlhttprequest handling.

This happens when you have a XMLHttpRequest onerror handler in which you tried to read the result's status (or statusText) when that value is not available, usually meaning it was broken off, or it failed in a specific way.

The W3 specs tell you that you shouldn't try to read status in the onerror handler because for some problems it may not be set, and that in this case an error must (!) be raised. This error is specific to Gecko (Firefox, Mozilla) because it adheres to those specs closer than most other browsers. The Gecko specs also tell you not to do this (...as I recall, I can't actually find it right now).

The cause is often that the browser never got a reponse with a HTTP status to parse out, for example via requests that are broken off on the client, a connection that broke because of some connectivity problem, and sometimes a (seriously) malformed server response.

The problem can also occur when AJAX is canceled by page unload, e.g. when you trigger AJAX from a form that also causes a page-reload-style submission (often a form with a submit
