#15191 closed defect (fixed)

[regression] dojo.query fails when passed null

Reported by: tj.vantoll Owned by: Kris Zyp
Priority: undecided Milestone: 1.7.5
Component: Query Version: 1.7.2

Description

In 1.6.1 passing null to dojo.query returned an empty array - ​http://jsbin.com/oluxaw/edit#source.

In 1.7.2 it gives a JS error of "Uncaught TypeError?: Cannot read property 'orphan' of null" - ​http://jsbin.com/iyafaf/edit#source.

I have used this to pass dojo.query the result of dojo.byId that may or may not exist. If it exists I want to attach a handler. I ran into this issue when upgrading from 1.6.1 to 1.7.2.

An empty array is also returned by jQuery - ​http://jsbin.com/ofinuk/edit#javascript,html.

Thanks.
