It would've been nice to know there was an update coming, instead of having the last 20 minutes of work wiped out when it dropped my session and undid several file operations.  The new cPanel itself is pretty sloppy too as the code editor is now garbled in Safari, it won't even logon in older versions of Firefox, and IE support hasn't improved either.

It's probably just the automated cPanel update process that did the upgrades.  They released 11.32 last night to the RELEASE tier according to the email I got from cPanel themselves.

I would not call a garbled code editor and being totally inaccessible from Firefox an upgrade.  This is the first major update since the good file manager got moved to legacy status.  Somebody, at cPanel and ASO, should've done some testing before rolling it out.

Edit: wow, real professional cPanel, I have to put "Javascript:window.document.getElementById('login_form').submit();" in the address bar just to get your login page to work...just how many Indian copypastas did it take to break a simple form with a submit button?  And once you get into either editor, they won't resize or save because Javascript is throwing "W[p] is not a function" exceptions all over the place.

I agree.

I'm seeing some weird stuff on pera with the default root theme.  

All my shortcuts seem to show a T in front of them.. weird as my own personal install doesn't show this.

Yeah, there was a really brief period maybe two weeks ago where instead of showing "Code Editor" it would show "FileMan-EditCode" and so on that went away as suddenly as it appeared and it's back now...

I agree it would have been nice to know this update is coming! The New Newsletter you send out we opted Into would have been a perfect forum for that.  If something is new and we don't know about it, The first thing is I am thinging is ASO or my site has been hacked! Proactive communication would have been prefered than morning scramble to see what happened.    Can someone from ASO confim that there Indeed was a CPanal change.

cPanel is working fine here in FF 3.6.28. Code editor is working fine here as well in the same browser.

Hmmm, the only sub-10 version of Firefox still in support status, what a coincidence :P

About 1/3 of the icons on my main page (after having to manually submit the login form) now show weird prefixes (T, MENU, Nav, INDX).  Pretty much every exception is coming out of a folder called "cPanel_magic_revision_1333591679" though there is one on the main page pointing to what I presume is an older "cPanel_magic_revision_1333591677" folder.  Names like that are never a good sign!  It looks like somebody took some syntax shortcuts and the minified Javascript isn't being parsed correctly, causing Javascript execution to stop completely.  Practically nothing works in the "new" file manager either (it's got FM prefixes some places too) with the same root error causing it.  I'm not sure what's wrong with the login page though.  Not only do I not get anything in my error console, it's a submit button so it should work even if client-side scripting is turned off.

looks other hosts see this issue as well

I have a couple of older versions available, will check them alter. From the above link at the cpanel forums it looks like it may vary from server to server so it's possible mine just isn't affected. Does seem to be a widespread problem though.
