IE is buggy when using
innerHTML
to access a node element's content, resulting inundefined
. Furthermorechildren
does not work consistently as well, again returningundefined
. This two IE bugs cause uploads to fail when using AWS S3 Upload as the response from AWS cannot be parsed correctly.The workaround replaces all affected occurrences of
children[0]
byfirstChild.firstChild
innerHTML
bytextContent
(which is also more appropriate as we do not want to parse HTML and is thereby faster)Those two functions are very well supported across all browsers as
firstChild
is part of the ancient DOM-Level 1 specification andtextContent
is supported since IE9.This fixes #325 and probably makes PR #462 and #332 unnecessary.
