Date Popup causes JavaScript error on IE8/9

So the report in English run through Google translate:

I created a web form that includes a date field with Date Popup. When you click the Date Popup form is automatically sent instead of showing the calendar. This happens in IE8 and IE9. In Firefox no problem. I appreciate any suggestions to correct this problem. Greetings from Guatemala.

I noticed that the webform version 7.x-3.11-no problem with IE. From the webform version 7.x-3.12-is the problem.

May respond in English, no problem, I translate.

The source of the problem is probably that you are getting a JavaScript error on the page in IE8 and IE9. If there are any errors the JavaScript won't work and you'll get the problem you're describing.

Hello, i have the same problem. On IE8 appears the following error in webform.js (console is not defined at line 24). Any help will be very apreciated. Thanks

On IE8 appears the following error in webform.js (console is not defined at line 24).

Oh yikes! Looks like we have a line of debugging code in webform.js!

Line 24 of webform.js is this:

console.log(startDate);

The quick fix for this is just to remove that line. We should remove that line and get a new release out quickly, a blatant JavaScript error like that is going to cause all kinds of havoc. Thanks for the report guys.

Note that the debugging is not only on line 24, but also 39 and 40.

This was also preventing jquery accordion from working on a page with webform block. Commenting out the debugging lines fixed it!

Now works, just remove the lines 24, 39 and 40, thanks to the great community

This works great thanks for the translation and the fix.

Thanks for that, here's a patch that does the job.

The issue was prematurely closed in #7 (above).

Removing these three lines from webform.js does the trick. Can we get this committed?

please apply patch works as expected

Thanks guys. Sorry I've been busy with lots of personal, work, and other contrib modules. Finally committed to the 7.x-3.x branch. 6.x-3.x was unaffected but I added the extra new-line to webform.js (per the patch in #10) in that branch too.

Reopening. Same problem as #3 this time with version 7.3.15
Upon clicking the calendar popup button the web form is sent. I disabled several modules without effect. Can't exactly tell since when this happens. Can anyone reproduce this?

I'm guessing that this may be a separate issue. Turn off JavaScript aggregation on your site and then check the error console in your browser for JavaScript errors. That should identify which JavaScript file is causing the problem.

I disabled most modules and set the theme to Garland
Only on webform nodes I get this error, also on a webform without date popup.

Do you understand what's going wrong?

Looks like the error is coming from collapse.js, the core JS file for creating collapsible fieldsets. Do you have any collapsed fieldsets on the page?

I get this error, also on a webform without date popup.

If you would be so kind, please re-close this issue and open a new issue, describing it from the beginning. If it's not related to this old bug (which has been fixed) it should be a new issue.

Hello.

Reopening. Same problem as jestrada2011 but in firefox. More precisely, in a form loaded in overlay using the colorbox module.

The form is submited when i click on the popup buttom...

I dont know if this is a problem from Webform, o from Colorbox...

Thanks...

This particular bug has been fixed already. Please open a new issue, as this problem was specific to IE.

I commented those 3 lines. Still having the same problem. Do we need to do anything to apply the change or simply save the webform.js file and refresh the page on IE. I am using IE 9
