Applets for IE and Mozilla

Its been a while since ive deployed an applet to a web page, the last time i simply used the <applet> tag. Now im trying to deploy an applet into an enviroment that inlcudes IE users on XP and Mozilla, Opera and Firefox users.
I was looking at this document
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/plugin/developer_guide/using_tags.html
Initially I was going to use both <embed> and <object> tags, but it I then found this document
http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Using_the_Right_Markup_to_Invoke_Plugins
So now Im just using the <object> tag for all. If they dont have a plugin, i prompt the user to either upgrade their browser or install the plugin
comments ?

Specificity also covers the scenario of "the rule closest to
the element
being styled" no?

  • How can I sign My applet for IE and Netscape without JavaPlugIn?

    I think we can sign our applets with Javasigner.exe but this certificate is not being
    supported by IE and Netscape. If you want to use this certificate with IE and Nets.
    you must install JavaPlugIn to all users. I dont want to choose this way.
    I think we have one alternative for this purpose.
    For Netscape: Signing Tool
    For IE: The program that included SDK-Java
    But I could not find SDK-Java any where.
    I think Microsoft have gave up to support the Java certification...
    I am not sure.
    How can I prepare signed applet that can be run on IE and Netscape?
    This applet will have some permissions.

    The tool you need for signing cab files for the MS JVM is signtool.exe. I beleive that the .NET version of this tool can be used, as the signing process was not Java specific. You do need certificates in a different format than for jarsigner or the netscape signing tool. Verisign will happily sell you two different certificates, but there is probably a way to convert between formats using openssl or similar.
    You'll also need to package your files in a cab instead of a jar. cabarc.exe is what we use here. Again, it does not seem to be Java specific, so you can probably still find it despite Microsoft no longer making their Java tools available.

  • Java applet for Facebook and similar

    Hi there,
    I have downloaded the latest version of Java available for my OS 10.4.8, it seems to be running ok (if a bit slow) when I try to upload batches of pictures, but after some time it says the upload failed.
    the same happens when I try to use similar Java uploaders for other website, which is a real pain as I then have to upload my pics one by one!
    Has anybody got any heads-up on this?
    thanks

    Ok,
    I have done both verifications, and a longish list of permissions seem to differ from the original. Here's an example:
    Verify permissions for “ Dani's HD”
    Determining correct file permissions.
    User differs on ./Applications/.localized, should be 0, owner is 501
    User differs on ./Applications/Address Book.app/Contents/MacOS, should be 0, owner is 501
    Permissions differ on ./System/Library/CoreServices/Dock.app/Contents/Resources/Widgets.wdgt/Images/s crollbartop.png, should be -rwxr-xr-x , they are -rw-r--r--
    User differs on ./Users/Shared/SC Info, should be 0, owner is 501
    Group differs on ./private/etc/authorization, should be 80, group is 0
    Permissions differ on ./private/var/log/secure.log, should be -rw------- , they are -rw-r-----
    Permissions verification complete
    The privileges have been verified or repaired on the selected volume
    Shall I repair the volume now?

  • Why does my Firefox say my java applet is corruped and will,not download for my game

    I play a lot of games on POGO and they tell me that I have to have JAVA and Mozilla Fire Fox for my browser. I have 1 game that I get kicked off of each time I try to play it. I get a notice telling me that my browser says my applet from Java is corrupted and will not download. I have done everything they suggest and nothing works. Mozilla seems to be a terriable choice for me as a browser I have a lot of ppproblems with them getting me to my web pages.. help!!

    Hi,
    Have you tried deleting the Java applet cache from the '''Java Control Panel''' > '''Temporary Internet Files''' > '''Settings''' > '''Delete Files...'''?

  • Embed applet for all 'big' browsers IE, NS & Mozilla ?

    Hi.
    I've got the problem with embedding an Applet. I've been looking around for sime time now and finally found a workaround to embed my Applet in both IE and Mozilla in the form of:<OBJECT classid="clsid:<somedata>" [..]>
        <PARAM NAME="codebase" VALUE=".">
        // some other params
        <COMMENT>
            <APPLET type="application/x-java-applet;version=1.3" width="100%" height="400" [..]>
                  <PARAM NAME="scriptable" VALUE="true" />
                  // again the other params
                  No Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition v 1.3 support for Applet!
            </applet>
        </COMMENT>
    </object>This should work since NS/Mozilla both ignore the <object>-tag and IE ignores all code between the <comment>-tags. This works fine when I test my Applet locally (from the filesystem) with IE & Mozilla.
    Nevertheless, when I try running my Applet via HTTP (Apache web-server) Mozilla works fine but IE says 'loading Applet ..' but never gets finished loading it. No error message, no complaints - but no Applet either.
    Any ideas? I'd really appreciate if someone could shed some light on this issue for me.
    cheers,
    kelysar

    Yes, I know what you're talking about. This would look like:<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
        var _info = navigator.userAgent;
        var _ns = false;
        var _ie = (_info.indexOf("MSIE") > 0 && _info.indexOf("Win") > 0 &&
                  _info.indexOf("Windows 3.1") < 0);
    </script>
    <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.1">
        var _ns = (navigator.appName.indexOf("Netscape") >= 0 &&
                  ((_info.indexOf("Win") > 0 && _info.indexOf("Win16") < 0 &&
                  java.lang.System.getProperty("os.version").indexOf("3.5") < 0) ||
                  (_info.indexOf("Sun") > 0) || (_info.indexOf("Linux") > 0)));
    </script>
    <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
        if      (_ie == true) document.writeln('<OBJECT [..]><NOEMBED><XMP>');
        else if (_ns == true) document.writeln('<EMBED [..]><NOEMBED><XMP>');
    </script>
    <APPLET [..]></xmp>
         <param>
            // other parameters
    </applet>
    </noembed></embed></object>The only problem with that is, that the HTML-code is not well-formed anymore. I'm using a proprietary content management system which transforms XML-content with XSL-stylesheets with a php-module. In order for the transformation to work the XML-data has to be alright - which it isn't when using the above way.
    BTW: I've found this JavaScript-code somewhere on Sun's website - so it's their official way.

  • I am trying to use an education program that needs Java applets to install and use and it will not use Safari. When I download IE from the web it will not install. How can I get a browser that will work on my MacAir for travel use of this program?

    I am trying to use and education program that needs Java applets and it will not run on Safari. IE will not install from the web. How do I get a browser that will work to install so I can use this program when I travel.

    Try using FireFox. IE will only run on a Mac if you run Windows on the Mac.
    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
    Install the Apple Boot Camp software.  Purchase Windows 7 or Windows 8.  Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows.  Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
    Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows.  The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
    VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.  It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
    Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc.  There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization.  The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. A more recent comparison of Parallels, VM Fusion, and Virtual Box is found at Virtualization Benchmarks- Parallels 10 vs. Fusion 7 vs. VirtualBox. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard and later. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
    You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

  • I've been using Mozilla for months and now when I click on icon nothing happens. How do I correct this?

    I can't get Mozilla to open in order to connect to the internet. I've been using it for months and just yesterday it wouldn't open. I tried to uninstall it to reinstall it but that didn't work. First it kept telling me that Moozilla was still open so I shutdown the computer. I was able to download the latest version, however, it still will not open a web page once clicked upon.

    Hi dmra1964,
    You might want to take a look at [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]] and [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox-not-start Firefox won't start]. Both of those articles provide a lot of good troubleshooting information.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Is there any other solution for Adobe Flash plugin crashing than the posted one about updating Flash and Mozilla? I cannot open any PDF files online and updated both Mozilla and Flash player to most recent with no change in the crashing.

    I was able to open PDFs online until version 8. Since upgrading to version 9 and now 10, I have crashes every time I try to open a PDF online and can see the form briefly for about two seconds before the plugin crashes. I followed instructions on the solution to update Adobe Flash and Mozilla, and they are both to the most recent version and it still crashes every time, no dent in the symptoms with the upgrades. I tried also downgrading to version 3, and it sill crashes. Although in some cases I can get around by saving the PDFs for reading them through Acrobat on my PC, it is a hassle as I do not want to save everything to my drive just to see what it is, plus sometimes forms are generated on a click and I cannot see these forms at all.
    I had to migrate to Chrome as I needed the PDFs and could not wait any longer - any suggestions to make Mozilla work again would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    Please check if this happens in [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe%20Mode Safe Mode] after enabling only the PDF plugin in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons''' > '''Plugins'''. You can also '''Disable''' the PDF plugin and try an alternative, for eg. [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/pdfjs/?src=cb-dl-created pdf.js]. Please also go through the add-on reviews, ratings, help and FAQ.

    Hi userwhat,
    Your personal data should have been saved, and you can try to follow these steps to fix your problem.
    *First, you should report that to the developer of the add-on the troubles that you are experiencing.
    * Then, you can try [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/ The Add-on Compatibility Reporter], which allows you to use add-ons that haven't yet been explicitly updated to work with Firefox 5, and lets you report the results of compatibility.
    * For add-ons that do not work with The Add-on Compatibility Reporter, you can still downgrade to the previously maintained version, which is Firefox 3.6 that you can download here: [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html]

  • Strange username and password in Mozilla saved passwords for chrome://weave (Mozilla Services Encryption Passphrase)

    What is chrome://weave (Mozilla Services Encryption Passphrase) ?
    I checked my saved password list in Mozilla Firefox and I found two strange usernames for site: chrome://weave (Mozilla Services Encryption Passphrase) and chrome:weave (Mozilla Services Password). Is this username randomly generated or is it possible that some addin/application/malware automatically generates this username and password.
    The username for both is "gjqsnhtjmmojlnmtepcdbiccdfrrerid"
    Password for chrome:weave (Mozilla Services Password) is a password I use commonly so seems to be provided by me but the password for : chrome://weave (Mozilla Services Encryption Passphrase) is a combination of random letters(just like the username)
    My issue is only that it should not be the work of any malicious content lying in my system which has reached my Mozilla Saved Passwords

    chrome://weave (Mozilla Services Encryption Passphrase is the sync key that is used to locally encrypt your data before sending it to the Sync server.<br />
    That key is automatically generated and changing the sync key will wipe all data stored on the sync server.<br />
    It is good practice to have a backup copy of the sync key.<br />
    The user name stored in the password manager is also generated, but you can always use the email address to get access to your sync account.

    I know c,c++ and java language ! and i want to contribute for development of mozilla products ! any idea where i can find beginner level projects ! so that i can hone some real development skills too :)

    You could also try jumping in on some of the Mozilla IRC chat channels as was suggested to someone else in another thread.
    Also you could also try the [/forums/buddies new contributors forum], it does now have an Admin monitoring and replying. (At the time of the quoted post Admins were almost impossible to get hold of for forum matters )

    Sorry I didn't see this earlier. :)
    I know just the places where I think you'd fit in best. To make sure, just join us in #sumodev and #mozwebqa and #communityit at irc://irc.mozilla.org
    I think your skills in php, javascript, python and server admin-y stuff will come in real handy at these places. :D
    For example, some help is needed here to fix these tests after a new theme was added to wiki.mozilla.org and they are in python. https://github.com/mozilla/wiki-tests - more info in #mozwebqa
    And maybe some help with perl might be needed with firebot, a irc bot written in perl. Channel #firebot for that.
    And #communityit (for server admin stuff) and #sumodev could use some help as well, just pop in and ask. :)
