I recently was notified about a bug which affects the digg Integrator plugin.
This bug does not appear to be related to the digg Integrator code! It appears to be resulting from the JavaScript hosted by digg. I have not yet confirmed this but I have left a message on the "bug report" section of digg's site.
If you, or your users, are running IE6 then the JavaScript does not work properly. Rather than browsing to digg and incrementing the story's count the browser will travel to URL "javascript:null()" which does absolutely nothing.
I've confirmed that this issue exists and I've also confirmed that it has nothing to do with the digg Integrator code. If you visit other pages that use a JavaScript button, based on the digg API, the same problem arises. Things work fine in FireFox but not in IE6. I haven't checked IE7 yet but I'll be sure too soon.
If you see this, and have any suggestions or would like to contact me about it, please do so in the comments here.
