Gmail to Salesforce Browser Button for Firefox 1.2

Gmail just launched their upgraded version -- unfortunately it's now causing my Gmail to Salesforce button to malfunction. Every time I click on it now, it doesn't recognize that I'm about to send a message and it pops up the "what's this" message about gmail. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I rely on this every day.

 

Bottom line - Gmail 2.0
- limited testing: Firefox, IE 7 (only some users)
- new JavaScript architecture
- look for: permalinks, new contact manager, photo picker, mail prefetching
- there aren't many new features, but I think these are the first steps for the social Gmail

Hi

 

I've got the same problem.  I copied out the javascript from the button and had a look at it in notepad.  See below.  I'm not a javascript guru so I'm kind of stuck at this point.  Anyone got any suggestions?

 

My biggest concern is that the bcc address variable doesn't seem to get used anywhere.  But I'm awfully rusty and may be overlooking something.  Second issue I can see is that the quotes aren't closed for the cs variable.

 

...I'm amazed it ever worked!  Please contribute ideas...

javascript:

var g_bccAddress='emailtosalesforce@q-5ew4tp2whvwkjriu8lty5vle1.in.salesforce.com';
var n=new Date();
var t=n.getTime();

function l(u){
  var d=document;
  var h=d.getElementsByTagName('head')[0];
  var s=d.createElement('script');

  s.id='FB_loader';
  s.type='text/javascript';
  s.setAttribute('src', u);
  h.appendChild(s);
}

l('https://emea.salesforce.com/servlet/servlet.gmailjs?
il=1
&
nc='+t+'
&
cs='+(document.charset?document.charset:document.characterset)
);
