Chrome Warning that Qualtrics using a deprecated feature: Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.

Hi everyone,

Google Chrome is saying that the one of the JS files served by Qualtrics is using an unload event listener that will soon be deprecated.

The file:

https://siteintercept.qualtrics.com/dxjsmodule/8.29a12639f19bc166d5bc.chunk.js?Q_CLIENTVERSION=2.21.0&Q_CLIENTTYPE=web&Q_BRANDID=


The offending line;

e.addEventListener ? e.addEventListener(t, n, !1) : e.attachEvent ? e.attachEvent("on" + t, n) : e["on" + this.capFirst(t)] && (e["on" + this.capFirst(t)] = n))

 

Does anyone know if Qualtrics is going to address this?   I searched for this on Google and only found one results that wasn’t really related.  I can’t believe we’re the only company on this planet with this issue.

Hi ​@aghistolz ,

I got a reply from Engineering: they made an update and confirmed that you should stop seeing the warning soon. If you are using hostedJS, please upgrade to the latest version to remove the handler usage.

We are having the same issue and had not had any luck from Qualtrics support giving any guidance.  They continue to close the tickets stating it is “out of scope”.

Hi ​@aghistolz,

I’ve escalated this issue internally and was advised to attend Office Hours to discuss with the engineers directly. I will do so next Monday, March 3rd, and post here with their response.

Apologies for the frustration this has caused.

@preichow for vis.
