I was browsing http://drupal.org/comment/reply/1891706 and I clicked "Follow". The display of the number of followers switched from 5 to "NaN followers". After page reload, it says 6 followers, so this seems to be a purely AJAX issue.

Moving over to what I *think* is the correct queue.

It's not even AJAX, it's just JS incrementing the local value by one (or decrementing if you unfollow). Aside from it being vastly simpler to implement that way, we thought it'd be less confusing that follow/unfollow always just does that, even if other people have followed in the meantime and there are actually more followers at the moment the AJAX call would return an answer.

Anyway, what browser are you using? If it's a JS-only thing, it's presumably browser-specific. I've never seen it on my Mac with Chrome or FF, nor my iPhone with Safari. I think the only way to debug this would be if it's reproducible on a given browser configuration.

Thanks,

I'm using the stock Firefox 18.0.1 on Ubuntu 12.04. I don't know how reproducible it is going to be since I've never seen the bug before...

Okay, sounds like a minor bug that we'll probably never be able to fix, but we'll see what happens. ;)

Thanks,

Drupal.org has had a couple problems with Chrome's regular releases and Firefox pre-releases. There is a decent chance this is a browser bug that will be corrected in the next release.
