Amazon.com product image magnification does not work

Post by pangy »

Clicking the product image to magnify it does not work for Amazon.com. I verified it with only Adblock Plus for Chrome enabled. ABP for firefox does not have this issue. Could you please kindly take a look at this?

I would suspect en/known-issues-chrome#dynamicimages once again but for me it seems to work. Can you give us a link to the particular product where it doesn't work?

Having to add Amazon to the list of exceptions would be pretty bad...

@Tropa: The strange thing is that it works fine for me. So far I had no problem reproducing any of the WebKit bug 45586 issues.

Could you tell me which Chrome version you are using and which operating it is in that screenshot? Also, could you try temporarily disabling all extensions but Adblock Plus?

The System Operating is Windows 7 64x, but in Windows XP 32 bits occurs the same problem.

I disable all extensions except Adblock Plus and still the problem.

I disable Adblock Plus and don't have the problem

Chrome version: 9.0.597.86 beta

Now I finally understood the issue. You click the product image to open the larger version - and then you click it again for magnification. I can reproduce the issue, also verified that it is the WebKit bug I suspected (en/known-issues-chrome#dynamicimages).

The question now is what to do about it. Disabling blocking on Amazon sounds like a pretty bad solution.

I attempted to find a work-around and what I got sort of worked - not good enough for Amazon however, this didn't fix the issue :-(
We really need this to be fixed in WebKit...

The problem also exists in other pages!

for example studivz.net

@Steve: I am certain that the issue affects more websites, that's why I added it to the "Known issues" page. If you want a particular website to be fixed you need to provide better instructions - on which page do I find the issue and what should I do there?

This is the same issue as on advanceautoparts.com. Here is the thread I posted before - forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=7348

Hallo, ich habe das gleiche Problem. Wenn ich das Bild vergrößern will und den Ausschnitt mit dem Mauszeiger verschieben will wird das vergrößerte Bild nur unten rechts angezeigt. Dann kann ich meistens nur einen ganz kleinen Teil des Bildes sehen. Mit ABP bei Firefox geht es ohne Probleme. Wenn ich ABP in Chrome deaktiviere geht es auch. Ausnahme hinzufügen bringt aber auch nix...

Bitte auf Chrome 16 aktualisieren - das Problem wurde dort bereits gelöst.
