Hello,

From our eventlog I can see that the DatePicker control is occasionnally generating the following error. Do you have any idea about what might cause this error ?

Best Regards,
Alexis

Yes. That occurs when the page is accessed by a web site crawer that pretended to be Mozilla/FireFox but does not specify the version number in their agent string. When our code tries to parse the version number, it throws out this error. It should not occur when the website is accessed by a real browser.

Is this the case of Googlebot ? If so, does it mean that the bot will receive an error and will not index the site ?
anyway, it would be nice if you could "catch" this error in a future release, so that these bots have no problem and that we do not receive the errors in the eventlog anymore ... any chance it will be ? When ?

No. I don't think it's Googlebot or any big search engines. Our own website is being crawered by those big search englines often and we do not see this error. We first noticed this error a while ago and we already wrapped the code around against that particular crawers. We will look into it and see if we can expand the catch block further.
