Description

I was testing bug 60816 by creating a post with bad HTML. When I clicked Preview the errorbox shows only

An unexpected error occurred.

clicking Reply gives a more helpful

An error occurred.
The error message received was: Exception Caught: ID searchbox already defined

So exception reporting is inconsistent between preview and reply. I would lean towards providing more information.

The particular exception from bug 60816 should be fixed by 1.23wmf13, after that you'll have to find a different post error to reproduce this bug.

Version: master
Severity: minor

• bzimport raised the priority of this task from to Low.Nov 22 2014, 2:55 AM

• bzimport set Reference to bz60853.

• bzimport added a subscriber: Unknown Object (MLST).

The frontend-rewrite changes how this works, so closing this as INVALID.
