iOS 6 and web interface

Hi,

I'm using transmission 2.60 with the web interface (+ daemon).
I have an iPad and after the update to iOS6 the interface is not working anymore:
- if you try to stop resume a torrent or all torrents nothing seem to happen (actually it does get stopped/resumed but the interface isn't refreshed)
The most wired thing is that inspector is working, but not updated as well, everything is freezed. I have to clean the cache and reload the page to get update info, then it freezes again.

I suspect it to be a safari bug since the interface is working flawlessly with every other browser and it was working with iOS 5.1 yesterday, I just want a feedback from you to file a bug to apple, if it is even possible.
Let me know, thank you!

I'm seeing this as well. Could you file a bug report with Apple and open one on our bug-tracking site (trac.transmissionbt.com)?

Of course I will open the bug in your tracking system.
What stopped me from doing that is that I have no idea of where this bug is, I'm not going to tell apple that transmission web interface is not working on their device because I think they can't care less of that. I need instead a specific function/code portion that is not behaving as expected, so I can point it out and they have to fix it :) hope that makes sense.
I wanted to isolate it also but I have a Linux laptop only and the web debugger that come with this version of iOS works only with a mac :shock:

Edit: ticket submitted hth
Edit2: it turns out that you need to be an apple developer to file a bug https://developer.apple.com/bugreporter/ I'm not even going to comment that
Edit3: as a workaround you may install chrome browser app in your iPad. With chrome transmission web interface is working as expected. So it's definitively a safari issue.

Could it be iOS 6 AJAX issues with Safari?

I believe bobnose is correct. This is a Safari bug.

This is correct:

For those that need a workaround in the meantime, strangely Google Chrome on iOS (which uses iOS WebKit) WORKS.

It's horrible at scrolling, but it does work on iOS 6.

I'm experiencing the same problem on my iPad 3 ios6, the client doesn't refresh the display and show changes in data. I use Atomic Web browser so it appears the problem isn't limited to just Safari.

Unfortunately, they didn't address this in 6.01 update. I have a feeling that it may never be addressed.

Web interface is working again in iOS 6.1 beta. Yay!
