PDF not displayed in Firefox 2.0 because of a popup

Hello,
we use NetWeaver 2004s SP9 and WebDynpro for ABAP 2004s SP 9.
In case of using Browser Firefox 2.0, we detected a problem with popups and Adobe Interactive Forms Integration.
The problem - described in a simplified form - occurs as follows:
There are two screens: screen A and screen B. Screen A contains some input fields.
Screen B shows a PDF via the Adobe Interactive Forms Integration, which contains data of screen A.
The navigation is screen A --> screen B.
Basically, this scenario works fine in Firefox 2.0. The PDF is displayed correctly on View B.
But, if a popup is shown before navigation form screen A to screen B, the PDF
(and the Adobe Plugin as well) is not displayed on screen B.
In this case the navigation is screen A --> Popup (screen A in background) --> screen B.
This problem exists only in Firefox, not in Internet Explorer.
Do you have any ideas how to solve this problem?
Best regards
Daniel

Hi Heidi,
thank you for your reply!
I have implemented note 1001411.
But the problem still exists...
Best regards
Daniel

RH8 WebHelp not displaying in Firefox

We have just upgraded to RH8 (from RH6) and one of our WebHelp projects that is available on our website will not display in Firefox. It is OK in IE and Safari. All we see is ï»¿ . We can view individual pages using the page url but not the project as a whole.
WebHelp that was generated using RH6 and is still on our website is still displayed correctly.
Has anyone got any suggestions. Obviously we cannot roll back to RH6.
Thanks
Pauline

I experienced the same problem. It is because your server is not configured to handle UTF 8 encoding. Once my webhost fixed that, it was OK.
This is what he advised me
I would therefore conclude that the solution to this problem (on Linux systems running Apache) is to add the AddDefaultCharset utf-8 directive to either the Apache config or the site .htaccess file. The advantage of the latter is that it only affects individual sites. The default Apache character set is taken from the locale file on Linux and defaults to iso-8859-1. It is the conflict between the Apache header with iso-8859-1 and the page character set of utf-8 that obviously causes Firefox a problem.
In a forum post Chrissy_Tissy added
My machine is Windows, but this fix still worked - some notes about making the fix visible:
1. Do the fix itself (httpd.conf: AddDefaultCharset utf-8).
2. Restart the box to apply the fix.
3. Once the box is restarted, clear your cache in FireFox to make sure you don't continue to see the cached file.
Once all this is done you will see the output content as expected.

My Social Media Icon are not displaying within FireFox

My Social Media Icon are not displaying within FireFox. And all other browser your able to view Icons - For some reason is now displaying in FireFox.
Can someone help me with this issue? I have alot of clients that view our website using firefox browser.
Domain Name: ForemostFitness.com

Do you use any extensions that block ads? That occurs to me because the service you're using for social icons (addthis) has "ad" in its name and perhaps they are getting filtered that way.
To determine whether an extension is a likely culprit, you could disable that one temporarily, or you could disable them all by testing the page in Firefox's Safe Mode. That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled ''(Flash and other plugins still run)''
In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
Any difference?

Newly created images will not display in Firefox 8 for Mac. Same images appear in other browsers. Why?

1. Specific new images are uploaded but will not display in Firefox 8 on my Mac with OS 10.6.8. (Does appear in other browsers, e.g., Chrome and Opera, and appears on Firefox 8 for PC.) Also, other images on the page display.
2. I have cleared cache, cookies, etc., in Recent History, and restarted both application and computer.
3. I've tried creating GIF, JPG and PNG, but none show on the page in Firefox on my Mac. I can see the offending image in other browsers such as Chrome on the same computer, and on Firefox on PC. Offending pages are in both PHP and HTML: http://www.brookfieldcivic.org/advertisers.php and http://www.brookfieldcivic.org/advertising_freedom_montessori.html
Image links: http://www.brookfieldcivic.org/images/advertisers/freedom.png and http://www.brookfieldcivic.org/images/advertisers/Freedom_Montessori_bizcard.jpg

You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
*Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
*Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
*Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
*Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
*Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
*If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

Airtight Gallery Not Displaying in Firefox

I am using Lightroom to generate the Autoview gallery from Airtight and the Lightroom export facility to drop it into my Dreamweaver defined site. The gallery works fine in Internet Explorer but does not display in Firefox. I have tried hardcoding the entire url and file structure string into the param name field of the object clause - didn't fix it. I'm using most if not all of the defaults for the Dreamweaver and Lightroom paramaters. I have found very few postings on this in any of the Adobe, Airtight, and Firefox forums I have checked. There were a few that referenced making sure that hot links were not turned on at the web service. In my case, they are not - that is not the problem. Can anyone offer any help?

I would check the differences between the version that targets IE browsers versus all other browsers since dreamweaver uses code that targets one or the other, and make sure they have the appropriate information for both. Next I would check the css for that area.

Flash files not displaying in Firefox, Safari, and Opera. Most recent Shockwave installed, private browsing active in Firefox? Works perfectly in Chrome and Internet Explorer. HELP!!!!

I suppose it would have helped if you knew what it was supposed to look like! I'm using Shockwave Flash 11.7.700.169 and the version of Firefox I'm on is 20.0
When you see it in Firefox - do the thumbnail populate the grid? See attached populated and un-populated.
Populated grid is with Chrome.
Thanks!
Thanks in advance!

I uploaded a new font and it does not display in firefox

I have a website that uses a font that is not a standard "Microsoft" font - I uploaded the font to my computer and it displays just fine in Word and Open Office, but my website does not display it. How do I get FireFox to read the font file I just uploaded? I made certain that it IS available in the Windows\Fonts directory.

Well, browsers only display "system fonts" unless, in Html 5 you establish the CSS @font to use other fonts.
But, you are sounding like you are not doing that. When you design a webpage on YOUR PC *your* systems fonts will show properly ON YOUR PC because they are *your system* fonts that the browser can find... on *your* machine only.
BUT, all other PCs/Macs/etc. probably do not have your font installed on their machines and the browser on their machines cannot find the named font, so it substitutes best guesses at it from the normally available generally available system fonts. So, when you create a webpage on *your* machine you WILL see what you are creating because THAT font is available to the browser... but only on YOUR machine.
**** Only Solution **** is to use Html-5 @fonts CSS definitions BUT that too is tricky but works. Otherwise you get standard system fonts whether *your* machine displays properly or not.
Hope this helps

Charts in Apex 3.2 demo application do not display in Firefox browser

Hi,
just installed Apex 3.2 and launched the demo application using Firefox 3.5.7
The charts are not displayed. Switching to MS Internet Explorer everything works fine.
Is Firefox not supported or any idea what's missing to display the charts ? Adobe flashplayer 10 plugin and Adobe SVG 3.0 are installed on
my WIN XP client.
Regards, Werner

It kept bugging me .. so I worked on it a bit.
The charts actually show, then get hidden by the noplugin funciton.
The problem is in Firefox ( the (ns || mo || !win) branch) the plugin check does not work.
When I use either this, the check for SVG feature:
function supportsSvg() {
return document.implementation.hasFeature("http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/feature#Shape", "1.0")
and
hasSVGSupport = supportsSvg();
or a check by mime types , like this:
var hasSVGSupport = false;
if (navigator.mimeTypes != null && navigator.mimeTypes.length > 0) {
if (navigator.mimeTypes["image/svg-xml"] != null)
hasSVGSupport = true;
I get the correct result and the charts display (remain displayed).
I simply modified plugins.js and use my modified version instead.
if (ns || mo || !win) {
if (hasSVGSupport) {
null;
} else {
noPlugin('svgRegion');
Hope this helps,
K

Pdf not displayed correctly in preview

We have a new A) scanner (colortrac Ci40) and when we scan a pdf it is displayed in preview as if it is all wrinkled up.
Only in prewiew and if imorted in vectorworks. (on both OSX 10.5 and 10.6)
The same problem appears on a iPad.
It is not displayed correctly.
In all other programms I tried it is displayed properly.
We also have a small a4/a3 scanner from konica minolta and these scans display corectly in preview.
Is this only a preview problem and should I ignore it?

Hi there,
I have a very similar problem: a number of pdf files that I can see perfectly well in Safari/GoogleChrome do NOT show correctly in Preview or ANY iPad app I have (Notability, Adobe, PDF Expertm iAnnotate, Dropbox etc.).
The problem is that punctuation -- with the expection of periods or bolded text -- does not show properly. For example, commas and quotation marks to not show, and some numbers to not show.
Moreover, once I have annotated/viewed the problematic file on the IPad and resync to dropbox to view on Mac vis Adobe (which I do with most pdf files with no problems), I get an error message upon reopening the pdf file saying "Cannot extract the embedded font 'FAFWQV+--unknown-2--'. Some characters may not display or print correctly." (the 'quoted' text changes each time). When opening in Preview, no error message appears, though the fole is still lacking punctuation etc.
Here is a link to one problematic pdf:http://niis.cass.cn/upload/2012/12/d20121201200145301.pdf
NB: the file is in Mandarin, however I can successfully open/edit/annotate/sync other pdfs using Mandarin font so I'm not sure if the language is related to the problem.
I would be extremely grateful for some help with this please!
Thanks!

PDF not displaying properly in Acrotbat

Hi all,
I'm having an issue with a document I have created in Photoshop not displaying properly when opened in Acrobat. It is a brochure for my work, that I have worked on and printed many times. When I open it in Acrobat after creating the PDF, gaps appear and other elements are shifted out of place. When viewing it in Photoshop, those gaps are not there, even when I zoom in very close. When we open the file on other computers with Acrobat, the gaps are still there. To test the PDF further, I downloaded some free PDF viewers off the net and the document looks the way it was created, the way it should be. I don't know how to fix it and certainly don't want the gaps appearing when it goes to print. Any ideas on how to fix this? I've never previously had this problem. Thank you in advance for your help.
Leah

Without access to the files it's impossible for us to help. Acrobat will be displaying the PDF "correctly", but why the page contents are shifted is anyone's guess.
When you save as "Photoshop PDF" and choose the "Preserve Photoshop Editing Capabilities" option, it embeds a copy of the PSD file into the PDF and will open that whenever you try to open the PDF in Photoshop, which is why you don't get the import dialog. Photoshop never even reads the PDF page contents. Turn off that option, save to PDF again, and then open it in Photoshop - you'll see the true PDF page being imported as a graphic, and it'll match what Acrobat is displaying.

PDF not displaying in Portal from UWL : cl_fitv_navigation= navigate_to_object

Hi Experts,
We are using a custom webdynpro application for the approval of expense claim.If I am clicking the link from UWL, a new window is opened and it is showing a blank page and PDF is not displaying in the browser.
I have checked from application level (SE80) and it is working fine,PDF is getting displayed in browser.We have done the UWL re-registration as well.
We have used the class 'cl_fitv_navigation' and method 'navigate_to_object' to display the PDF.
Also I have debugged the same method and could found that the codes are different for calling the application from portal and for using SE80.
Kindly let me know what could be the issues or if I missed any parameters.Also please let me know if I need to check any related R/3 configs and parameters maintained in R/3.
Thanks & Regards,
Arun Narayanan.

Hi Pramod,
We are not using iFrame to display the PDF.
We are using the class and method
CALL METHOD cl_fitv_navigation=>navigate_to_object

      component           = l_api_component
      operation           = l_operation

New favicon will not display in Firefox, but does display in Safari

I am working on a new website and uploaded the favicon.ico into the root folder (Go Daddy). The favicon appears when I use Safari, not does not appear in Firefox... I have a mac OSX version 10.5 I have cleared the history and cache too. Any thoughts?

I have this problem too. I've just loaded my favicon.ico into my root folder and it shows next to the site url in latest Safari 5.0.5, but not in Firefox 3.6.17 - neither next to the site url nor on the page name tab.
Firefox also does not show the favicon in the Tools > Page Info > Media tab, although this does list just three of the many jpgs and pngs within its folders. I've just added the favicon.ico to the folder where it does see a jpg and png, but no joy, still not displayed. See attached png.
How do I overcome this problem? Is there a plugin that resolves this issue? It would be nice to have some color in the page name tabs. Many sites, such as this one, do have their favicons displayed by Firefox...
