hey,

have you tried out meteor in chrome?
it works, but it shows an hourglass icon and a rotating circle on the
tab.
This makes the user think that the website is still loading, so they
might sit their and wait, or give up and think something is broken.
Do you know of anyway to get it to stop doing that?

thanks.

Hello,

I can confirm this problem as well. It is also apparent on the
meteorserver.org website itself. I suspect it's a Javascript client
issue, and defaulting to a different transport may help.

Any meteord hackers have any suggestions about how to solve this
problem?

I had the same problem and I found a hack. I think the problem arises
when the xhr communication is initiated before all resources are
loaded. Basically the stream.html file must wait before initialising
the xhr connection. So replacing startstream(); by setTimeout
(startstream, 1); fixes the issue. I am not sure it is the cleanest
solution, but it works. If anyone has a better understanding of the
problem, I'll be happy to hear it.

That hack works. I also figured that out just today.
