CFGRID outputs EMBED tag in IE 6

Weird problem: On my production machine ColdFusion outputs an
OBJECT tag for the CFGRID generated applet and everything works
fine. On my dev machine (same OS (Windows 2003, patch level, CF 5
service pack, same code) for some reason ColdFusion outputs an
EMBED tag for the CFGRID generated applet ... and the applet
doesn't work or show up. I applied all patches and fixes for CF 5.
I'm using XP and IE 6 against these two systems. It has to be a
ColdFusion or server setting somewhere. I've tried it on a number
of machines and the Java VM version of the requesting machine
doesn't seem to matter.
Thanks!

thanks for responding. Yep, tried that also but I am still getting the same "uknown plugin" message on Firefox. Did you try that and it worked? It used to work for me when it was 1.5 but when I change it to 1.6, no go.
I was at Java One and meant to go to the Deployment BOF to ask the team but didn't manage to get there.
Thanks!

Embed tag is not working with Mozilla Firefox 23, 24 and 25

Requirement:
While loading the java applet on a page, if the user system do not have plugin loaded then our code should redirect the user to get Java 1.6 plugin.
At present I am using below two URL for automatically JRE6 download
• IE : https://java.sun.com/update/1.6.0/jinstall-6-windows-i586.cab#Version=1,6,0,31 
[When user tries to access the applet page from IE browser then he/she is getting pop-up message for JRE6 installation, provided that the user system don’t have any JRE installed]. This scenario is working IE8,9,10 
• Mozilla family : https://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/AutoDL?BundleId=60336
Below is the used script for ‘Object’ and ‘embed’ tag:
<pre><nowiki><script language="javascript" >
<OBJECT classid="clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93" name="OrderApplet"';

User is getting pop-up message for JRE6 installation with browser IE8, 9, and 10 and also with Mozilla Firefox 22, but it’s failing with latest version of Mozilla Firefox23,24 and 25.
I have gone through so many sites but could find any reason for this behavior.
I have provided JRE6 32-bit version download URL, here I don’t think so I’m doing any version incompatibility because both the JRE6 and Mozilla Firefox are 32-bit version. And 64 bit Firefox version is not available for windows.
I’m not sure why the code is working with Firefox 22 and its lower version but
doesn’t work with higher version than firefox22….like 23,24,25
Can anyone help to sort out this issue?
Thanks, 
Sumit

Sorry for the delay in getting an answer, yesterday was a holiday in the USA.
This forum is for Firefox user support, not for web developer support. My rough guess is that since Mozilla has blocked all but the most recent update for Java 7 Plugins - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/blocked/ - and Firefox 23 brought in a new '''Simplified interface for notifications of plugin installation''' - http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/23.0/releasenotes/ - that is probably why you're having a problem with versions of Firefox after Firefox 22.
Try posting at the Web Development / Standards Evangelism forum at MozillaZine. The helpers over there are more knowledgeable about web page development issues with Firefox.

Embed tag and validation

I am using Dreamweaver to place .swf into my page. It
generates an embed tag which never passes W3C validation. How do I
place a .swf and still be compliant with the standards?

Embed tag always caling QT

Hello
I placed a simple embed tag in a page and it always calls for
the Apple QuickTime player for what is only an mp3 file. I have
(Windoze) configured to use the Windows Media Player for any mp3,
but it still uses the QT. This is totally outside of the expected.
How do I make sure it used the installed player for that file type.
tia

I don’t know of any way to do that.

Deprecated embed tag issues

I have been using the embed tag to play media like:
embed src="audio/song1.mp3" width="200" height="18" ...... /embed
It seems that it has become deprecated in some uses
I'm looking for some kind of universal tag to play mp3's or .mov files
Any idea what replaces it for basic use?

so what's the best bet overall for maximum compatibility ?
Use both <object> and <embed> tags. Embed tag was never valid W3C code. Nevertheless, some browsers require it.

Embed Tag Problem

Hi;
I have the following code:
<body topmargin='0' leftmargin='0' marginheight='0' marginwidth='0'>
<object classid='clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000' width='100%' height='100%' id='seaFlightPreloader' name='seaFlightPreloader'>

which produces 100% width but only about 10% height! See here: http://seaflightvi.com/
What do?

Embed tag for Fonts in AS3 "exception during transcoding"

Hi,
I have the following problem, I am embeding a font in a project with the embed tag and I get the following error "exception during transcoding".
[Embed(source="D:/repo/docs/fonts/FreeSans.ttf", fontFamily="Free Sans", fontWeight = 'regular', mimeType = 'application/x-font')] public var auxFont:String;
I had this same error in Flex but I found that adding "-managers flash.fonts.AFEFontManager" in the properties of the project, ActionScript compiler, Additional compiler arguments took care of it.
I need to compile this project with the Flash compiler and not Flex is there any place in Flash that I can add that argument?
Thanks,
Ana

Try this:
          [Embed(source="D:/repo/docs/fonts/FreeSans.ttf", fontFamily="FreeSans")]
          private var freeSans:Class;
Than, you can use the embedded font via font property of TextFormat class:     myTextFormat.font = "FreeSans";

Youtube Videos not working through embed tag

I just purchased a 13" Mid 2012 MB Pro, first time on YouTube, the videos would not play, google "Adobe Flash", download and install the player and you should be good.

Choosing JRE used by Plug-in in OBJECT OR EMBED tags

I have successfully used the type attribute of the EMBED tag to choose the Plug-in version with fire fox and used the clsid of the OBJECT tag to choose the Plug-in version used by IE to run an applet.
Is there a way in the OBJECT or EMBED tags to force the selected plug-in to use a specific JRE that is known to be installed?

http://www.mozilla.org/docs/web-developer/upgrade_2.html
some text from this site:
APPLET
The APPLET element has been deprecated in HTML 4.01 in favor of OBJECT.

<applet code="HelloWorldApplet.class" height="200" width="350"></applet>
can be converted to:

<object classid="clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93"
codebase=
"http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/autodl/jinstall-1_4_2-windows-i586.cab#Version=1,4,2,0"
codetype="application/java" standby="Loading of applet in progress..."
height="200" width="350">
<param name="code" value="HelloWorldApplet.class">

 <object classid="java:HelloWorldApplet.class"
 standby="Loading of applet in progress..."
 height="200" width="350">
 Your browser does not seem to have java support enabled
 or it does not have a Java Plug-in. 
 <a href="http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp">You can download
 the latest Java Plug-in here. (free download; 15MB)</a>
 </object>

</object>
The above code will work for MSIE 6, Mozilla-based browsers and other standards-based browsers; also, it will validate in either HTML 4.01 transitional or HTML 4.01 strict.
Explanations on the code:
According to HTML 4.01 recommendation, when an <object> is not rendered (because its content type is unsupported or because it does not support ActiveX controls), then the browser should render its contents instead: here, it is another <object>, an alternate <object>. Here, the inner <object> will be rendered by browsers not supporting java plug-in triggered by an ActiveX.
classid="clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93":
this clsid value will make the MSIE 6 browser use the highest possible version (installed on the user's machine) of JRE. Sometimes, MSIE 6 users have several JRE plug-in versions installed.
codebase=
"http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/autodl/jinstall-1_4_2-windows-i586.cab#Version=1,4,2,0":
the codebase defines the minimum version for the JRE; here it is 1.4.2. In case the browser does not have a java plug-in or if its version is earlier than 1.4.2, then an automatic download of the latest 1.4.2 version will start. This may be a debatable choice: on one hand, the latest available JRE plug-in has several security patches and bug fixes, on the other hand, forcing a 15MB download without a prior explicit consent of the user can not be best.

When will firefox be able to support html files in embed tags again?

A previous question was answered here that stated that firefox did not work with html files in embed tags. Is this a problem that is currently being worked on, or does Firefox just no longer support this?

hello, a html file is no suitable content for an <embed>-tag. you'll have to use ''iframe ''or ''object ''for it instead...

How to set src attribute of embed tag to a swf in resource ?

Hi all,
I'm working on a C++ project that uses Internet Explorer engine (through Microsoft Web Browser component) to render HTML pages.
All HTML and images files are in the project resource, and the final artifact is a standalone*.exe.
I have an embed tag like this to add the *.swf
<object classid='clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000' width="314" height="64" id='player1' name='player1'>
 <param name='movie' value="res://appName.exe\res\torreVermelha.swf">
 <param name='allowfullscreen' value='true'>
 <param name='allowscriptaccess' value='always'>
 <embed id='player1'
 name='player1'
 src='res://appName.exe\res\torreVermelha.swf'
 width="314" height="64"
 allowscriptaccess='always'
 allowfullscreen='false'/>
</object>
The file torreVermelha.swf is also inside the resource, but I can't access it from HTML.
So, how can I embed a *.swf from resource?

Obviously because I've misplaced it.
My bad.
