Active challenges current values do not appear anywhere

I go to Challengs and enter in any challenge (ex: October Ride to 400) and no value are show:

this is happening in Safari and Chrome, and in challenges like October rundown, 

  • Apart from that string problem,

    I was curious if that algorithm with separated rounding do something better in a matter of a result value.
    So I made a test loop to check random numbers in both functions.

    It compares: o.a.roundDecimal(num, true) - with - Math.ceil(nums*10)/10

    and: o.a.roundDecimal(num, false) - with - Math.floor(nums*10)/10

    and as a reference: Math.round(nume*10)/10

    There is if() check to show only not matching results, to show all it can be removed.
    It can be run in console when rounding function from the website is loaded.
    Then just enter: test(20, 100) (repeat count, max number).

    test = function(repeat=1, max_num=10)
    {
        var toNum = function(str_num)
            {   return parseFloat(str_num.slice(0,-2).replace(/[,\.]/g,'') + '.' + str_num.slice(-1)); };
    
        var num, nume, nums, i, n0, n1, n2, n3, n4;
        for(i=0; i<repeat; i++)
        {
            num = Math.random()*max_num;  nume = num+Number.EPSILON;
            nums = Math.round(nume*100)/100;
            n0 = Math.round(nume*10)/10;
            n1 = o.a.roundDecimal(num, true);  n2 = Math.ceil(nums*10)/10;
            n3 = o.a.roundDecimal(num, false); n4 = Math.floor(nums*10)/10;
            if(toNum(n1)!==n2 || toNum(n3)!==n4)
            {
                console.dir('rand:', num, 'round:', n0);
                console.dir('rDceil:', n1, 'ceil:', n2);
                console.dir('rDfloor:', n3, 'floor:', n4);
            }
        }
    }

    And if I checked correctly, there is no difference in results.
    So I would just use those build-in Math functions.
