Why is FileReader.onerror not called in readAsArrayBuffer on NS_ERROR_FILE_ACCESS_DENIED? (Chrome does)
When reading a file via javascript readAsArrayBuffer and file is not readable, Firefox does not call "onerror" handler and instead stops the javascript with error: NS_ERROR_FILE_ACCESS_DENIED
blob = file.slice(0,1); var reader = new FileReader; reader.onerror = function(e) {
// this is called under Chrome, but not under Firefox
console.log('reader.onerror');
} reader.readAsArrayBuffer(blob); // this stops with NS_ERROR_FILE_ACCESS_DENIED
According to FileAPI it should: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/FileReader
