Why Does This Code Fail for Some Users?

[cutey Love]

I have this code and it works for me all the time, but many users tell me it simply does nothing when they execute it, does anyone have any idea as to why?

 

$scope.purchase = function()
    {
        $scope.cam.ttype = "order";
        $scope.cam.price = $scope.cost;
        $scope.cam.bloggers = $scope.bloggerNumber;
        $scope.cam.name = $scope.order.name;
        $scope.cam.companyName = $scope.order.companyName;
        $scope.cam.email = $scope.order.email;
        $scope.cam.message = escape($scope.order.message.replace(":", ""));

        Order.query($scope.cam)
                .$promise.then(function(data) {
                    window.location = ("http://www.example.com/platform/server/confirm.php?order=" + data[0].hash);
                });
    };

Not sure without running it to see what it does for me, exactly, but at first glance I see that there isn't any protection around having objects that are null. Anytime I have more than 2 dots after a variable I check for null before referencing properties...

Is it possible that you have a null reference happening? Doors anything show up in the browser's console?

Yeah, I'd put a .catch on the end of that promise chain to see what the error is. My hypothesis is that Order.query is failing, but it is hard to say why. The problem with promises (and asyncs in general) is that unless you explicitly look for errors, you'll miss them.

Which is why I put an .catch (err) -> console.log err at least on all my promise chains. Or next err if we are on the node side.

Fixed, the problem was a certain character being pushed to a GET query.

Good news! Glad you figured it out.
