Research direction

Reproduce the error at the proposals view URL, then inspect proposals-controller.js around line 22 and caps-controller.js around line 60, where the stack trace points. Identify why React receives a target that is not a DOM element, and verify that the proposal view no longer logs the error in the JavaScript console.

Description

Questo errore viene visualizzato nella console anche se non sembra avere conseguenze negative:

jquery.js?1157:4059 Uncaught Error: Target container is not a DOM element.
    at Object.render (react-dom.development.js?61bb:26091:1)
    at CapsProposalsController.view (proposals-controller.js?74a2:22:9)
    at HTMLDocument.eval (caps-controller.js?99fb:60:21)
    at mightThrow (jquery.js?1157:3766:1)
    at process (jquery.js?1157:3834:1)

ad esempio: https://develop.caps.dm.unipi.it/proposals/view/1748 (ma l'errore è minificato)
