Remove error message "Uncaught fieldName not defined in message" in Browser console

[sypets]

Summary / Description

In the developer tools of the browser, the error message "Uncaught fieldName not defined in message" (in file paste-reference.js line no 215) is displayed. This occurs in the TYPO3 backend.

code (in version 3.0.2):

214 if (typeof evt.data.fieldName === 'undefined') {
215       throw 'fieldName not defined in message';
216 }

in latest version of main, this is line:240

Version

• paste_reference: 3.0.2
• TYPO3 12.4.25
• PHP 8.2

Steps to reproduce

1. Go to TYPO3 Backend
2. Open Developer Tools (e.g. F12 in Firefox or Chrome)
3. switch to tab "Console"
4. in page module, reload a page (can be empty, can contain textmedia elements)
5. Check to see if there are messages in the Console

Expected behaviour

In normal behaviour, I would not expect these messages to occur. It clutters up the console when you are testing something else.

Actual behavior

Several error messages are shown

Possible fix

I don't know why the fieldName is not set here, but if we are listening for a "message", perhaps they don't always have data.fieldname. I would gracefully exit in that case.

Thanks for reporting the issue.
I'll think about the messages.
If the message is shown, a bit more context would be helpful, but dropping it is possible too perhaps.

Might be an issue in v4 too, and should be solved simultaneously.
