Javascript error on "Share this on Twitter" page - twitter

I have noticed a Javascript error in IE off of everyone's "Tweet this" button. I mean, everyone has the problem - and it occurs on twitter's popup window.
To reproduce, find a site with "Tweet this" button: http://cavekitchen.com is an example - with sharing buttons at the end of blog posts. Click "t". A popup window shows, asking you to log in - with a javascript error. I have not found any sites that failed to have the problem.
Does twitter know? Is there anything we can do as developers to get around it?
Thanks!
Kate

If the error is not inhibiting any functionality, I would not worry about it. It is probably a feature unsupported in IE.

Intercom icon does not appear after login (Intercom-rails)

I am trying to use 'intercom-rails' in my app. I followed the installation from here : https://github.com/intercom/intercom-rails. Now Im able to see the chat icon and chat.
However, if I login, the chat icon disappears. It does not appear even after logging out.
Any help ?
It probably means something is causing the Intercom JavaScript code to crash or not report the needed information to be activated.
First, check your browser JavaScript console for errors. If there is something wrong when rendering the Intercom widget, it will show up there.
Then, I suggest that you look into your HTML code using the "View Source" function on your browser and take a look at how the Intercom Javascript code is being rendered when the chat icon does not appear.
You should see something like this:

Thanks in advance!

Goto your app's "App Details" settings in the App Dashboard:
https://developers.facebook.com/apps/YOURAPPID/appdetails
Under the Contact Info part of that page, there is an 'App Page' field, with a button to create an App Page. You should click on this and create the Facebook Page that way. Once you do, there will be a button on the Page that will either say "Go to App" or "Play Game" depending on how your Facebook app is categorised.
I searched a little bit more, and I've found an answer to my own question.
In this link, you have to give your app id, and the link to your app.
Then a facebook popup comes, and asks you on which page you want to add this app.

Twitter button replacing every link on the page in Internet Explorer 8

Twitter button is replacing every link on the page in Internet Explorer 8
I just copied and pasted the code from Twitter.
It only does it in IE8, however, in other browsers it shows the button count as #undefined, although it works.
It must be a conflict with other javascript files. I just wanted to see if someone else has had this problem before.
Thanks
Sadly it's a Twitter Issue you can follow the updates here: https://dev.twitter.com/issues/486

Add Page Tab dialog no longer working

I used to have my users add my app by clicking a link that was emailed to them, or by using the add page tab dialog. Both are described here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/appsonfacebook/pagetabs/
As of Friday (3-Aug-2012) neither of these seem to be working. The user simply sees a page that says, "An error occurred. Please try again later." with no further explanation. Even clicking the example URL on the above mentioned page produces the same error. I get this error for any app, while signed on with any facebook profile.
Has anyone experienced this, and if so, do you know what needs to be changed so that it will work again?
This commonly happens when your app is missing settings in the Page Tab section of the Basic (Page Tab URL, Secure Page Tab URL) settings.
It will also happen if your app has Sandbox mode enabled.
I've filed a ticket to get the example link on that documentation page corrected (thanks).
