Hi 👋

Can you provide more details about what is happening in prototype.js on and before line 828?

#

What are you trying to do on the line where the error is thrown?

smoky mist Feb 12, 2025, 5:48 PM

#

i'm not trying to do anything, this is your library failing to initialize

Can you share what you are doing in prototype.js on line 838?

smoky mist Feb 12, 2025, 5:50 PM

#

#

How/where are you instantiating Stripe.js?

smoky mist Feb 12, 2025, 5:50 PM

#

just loading the file and this happens

#

i get Uncaught ReferenceError: Stripe is not defined if i try to use it

rapid whale Feb 12, 2025, 5:52 PM

#

The request to https://js.stripe.com/v3/ is returned with a 200 status and the Stripe.js code.

#

How are you loading it on your site?

smoky mist Feb 12, 2025, 5:52 PM

#

rapid whale Feb 12, 2025, 5:53 PM

#

And you get an error when you attempt to run

var stripe = Stripe('pk_XXXXX');

smoky mist Feb 12, 2025, 5:53 PM

#

correct

#

no

#

the original error is when loading the lib

#

if i try to initialize i get Uncaught ReferenceError: Stripe is not defined

rapid whale Feb 12, 2025, 5:55 PM

#

The resource is being returned correctly. You can see that in the Networks tab.

#

Are you using some web framework that might be attempting to use Stripe.js before the DOM has loaded?

smoky mist Feb 12, 2025, 5:57 PM

#

idk

#

why would it fail afterwards?

rapid whale Feb 12, 2025, 5:58 PM

#

What do you mean?

smoky mist Feb 12, 2025, 5:58 PM

#

why no Stripe const?

#

thats suppose to be standalone

rapid whale Feb 12, 2025, 5:58 PM

#

I am saying I suspect that you are attempting to load/use Stripe.js before Stripe.js has been loaded by your site

#

If you are using a framework that performs some operations server-side, before the client loads, that might cause an error like this

smoky mist Feb 12, 2025, 6:01 PM

#

i dont understand why anything server side would affect a js library being loaded in the browser

rapid whale Feb 12, 2025, 6:01 PM

#

I don't think it is. The JS library is loading fine.

#

That is not what I'm saying

smoky mist Feb 12, 2025, 6:01 PM

#

but why no Stripe available?

rapid whale Feb 12, 2025, 6:01 PM

#

I am saying, I think your site is attempting to use it before it's loaded in the browser

#

Basically, I know loading Stripe.jS from the <script src="https://js.stripe.com/v3/"></script> tag works just fine. I've loaded over 20 sites that use it while we've had this chat.

#

What I am attempting to determine, based mostly on guesses, is what might result in you attempting to use it without having it correctly loaded in your JS runtime environment.

#

So far, you have not provided much information about how your site is built and what frameworks you are using

#

That would be helpful

smoky mist Feb 12, 2025, 6:04 PM

#

i know it works, i also have deployed a lot of sites. we make a plugin for magento that integrates stripe connect. there is a problem with this particular one

#

what i dont understand is why would the init of the Stripe lib fails

#

since that i presume is a standalone lib

#

the file loads

#

but the init fails with that error

#

even if i try using the lib when still not ready, it should work afterwards

#

the lib loads but yet: Uncaught ReferenceError: Stripe is not defined

rapid whale Feb 12, 2025, 6:07 PM

#

Where are you attempting to perform the initialization?

smoky mist Feb 12, 2025, 6:08 PM

#

if you go to https://www.electricmotormarket.co.uk/ open a console and type "Stripe" you can test by yourself

rapid whale Feb 12, 2025, 6:09 PM

#

Hmm...definitely not loaded. Neither Stripe nor window.Stripe

#

And, if you look at the v3/ network response payload, you can see its an IIFE that returns the Stripe lib

smoky mist Feb 12, 2025, 6:14 PM

#

yeah, idk why it doesn't initialize

#

only happening on this site but i have no idea why

rapid whale Feb 12, 2025, 6:16 PM

#

Yeah that's why I'm wondering what about this site might be causing the issues. Something in the architecture.
