Problem with entering URL

Ever since the last update or two I seem to have an irritating problem with entering URLs. If I'm navigating a site and modify the URL manually in the address field and hit enter, the URL reverts back automatically to the previous one instead of accepting the new modified entry.
For example if I'm on www.site.com/path/path and go to the URL bar and remove the last '/path' and hit enter, the browser seems to 'remember' and take me to the previous URL path, i.e. www.site.com/path/path. It doesn't matter whether the deleted text forms part of the URL path or whether its parameters after the path, or even if I modify the URL to something like www.site.com/path/anotherpath.
Once it starts 'remembering' there seems to be no way of getting around this except to close the browser down and start again. I've noticed this behavior on FF20.0.1 and also on FF21. It happens on all 3 of the PCs I use (2 at home, one at work). I'n not sure if its being caused directly by FF or the NoScript plugin (the latter seems unlikely).
Is there a setting somewhere to modify this behavior, or is it a bug?

i couldn't find any documentation for it either, however after testing it, it appears that when browser.urlbar.autoFill.typed is set to '''true''' it means that only addresses you've once typed into the url-bar manually get autofilled, when browser.urlbar.autoFill.typed is set to '''false''' then all addresses that are stored in your history no matter if you have typed them in once manually or visited them through a link on a website.
browser.urlbar.autoFill will generally switch the autocomplete feature in the address bar on or off.

  • Problem with opendoc url.

    hi experts,
    i am having a problem with opendoc url in my dashboard.my url is to open a webi report depends on two prompts given by the user.
    i am using the following url and it is working fine.
    http://sysname:port/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sType=wid&sRefresh=Y&iDocID=123456&mode=full&nbPrompts=2&lsSEnter Year=Prompt1&lsSEnter Dealer=prompt2.
    when i am entering a value for prompt2 like "krishna distributors" its working fine.but the problem here is whenever i am entering a value for the second prompt with a value like (ex:) "ravi & ravi distributors" its giving an message "NO DATA TO RETRIEVE"  because it is considering the & symbol in my prompt2 as another parameter as shown below.
    http://sysname:port/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sType=wid&sRefresh=Y&iDocID=123456&mode=full&nbPrompts=2&lsSEnter Year=Prompt1&lsSEnter Dealer=ravi & ravi distributor
    can anyone help me on this.
    thanks in advance,
    ravi kishore yarramsetti.

    Hi Ravi,
    In Excel , & considers as "Concatenation. So it will not work properly. To make this work, use Dealer Number instead of Dealer name in ur example.
    Eg:
    Dealer Name                           Dealer Number
    ravi & ravi distributors            D10001
    krishna distributors                 D10002
    If you use Dealer Number "D10001" you can get "ravi & ravi distributors " Information. In ur Dashboard Design, if the user clicks "ravi & ravi distributors" then pass "D10001" to the Opendoc and generate the report.
    Try to not use which has special characters as the prompt in Xcelsius.
    Thanks,
    Muthukumar A.S.

  • Problem with image url

    Hello,
    today I have a problem with image url. I wanted Image to change when mouse dragged over it. But nothing happened. Any ideas?

    In some applications, such as Yahoo and this message block right now !!, when composing a message, the arrow keys and delete, backspace keys become non responsive. Various ones will work on a random basis.

  • Problem with an Url

    Hello, I have a problem with the Url in the HTTP Service
    <mx:HTTPService id="userRequest" url="http://ispedd.redios.it/iSchoolPDFManagerPortlet/imagepdf.do?idPdf=1&i dPage=0" useProxy="false" method="GET"/>
    The service should open a PNG image and the error bring back is:  The reference to entity "idPage" must end with the ';' delimiter. 
    Can you help me? Thank you.

    Hi,
    The url is OK, the problem is that properties for MXML cannot have included some characters. So you need to escape entities in your url and it will be ok, for example:
    url="http://ispedd.redios.it/iSchoolPDFManagerPortlet/imagepdf.do?idPdf=1&idPage=0"
    But it would be better if you do not hardcode params in URL. If you need you could hardcode them in Mxml itself like below:
    <mx:HTTPService
         url="http://ispedd.redios.it/iSchoolPDFManagerPortlet/imagepdf.do"
         method="GET"
         id="userRequest">
         <mx:request>
              <idPdf>1</idPdf>
              <idPage>0</idPage>
         </mx:request>
    </mx:HTTPService>
    or (which is more flexible) use parameters as argument when invoking service:
    userRequest.send({idPdf:1, idPage:0});
    You could read more on that in section about data integration in Flex in online or offline documentation:

  • Problem with entering data

    I have a windows Xp system with Microsoft SQL Server 2005 setup and using java 1.6
    I'm using the JDBC-ODBC Bridge and also setup the DSN and that works fine.
    The following code worked fine a few days back but now every time I enter a row of data and if the data type of a variable is varchar or char it enters the text followed by spaces.
    Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver"); Connection con=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:Mydata","myusername","mypassword"); PreparedStatement stat2=con.prepareStatement("insert into Login(vUserName,vPassword,vAddress,age) values(?,?,?,?)");         stat2.setString(1,textName.getText()); stat2.setString(2,textPass.getText()); stat2.setString(3,textAddress.getText()); stat2.setInt(4,Integer.parseInt(textAge.getText())); stat2.executeUpdate(); JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(frame,new String("Your details have been registered"));
    If I enter a name such as John in the textName field, when it updates the database, it adds spaces after John upto the max capacity. (The vUserName in the database is a VARCHAR(25) ).
    Could this be a problem with the odbc driver or the jdbc driver?
    P.S The username and password are bogus here.
    Thanks in advance

    Howdy people! I've finally fixed the problem. I've cornered the b***ard. I thought of posting the solution here just in case some one else runs into the same problem and gets stuck.
    It is an option in the DSN setup of the ODBC driver.
    [url #" style="display: block;
    background-image:url('http://www.geocities.com/lijoethomas/sqlpadding.gif');
    width:509px; height: 354px]
    The picture above is one of the pages in the DSN setup for the sql server.
    If the ANSI nulls, padding and warning option is enabled it pads your VARCHAR's and[b] CHAR's with white space.
    VARCHAR's are supposed to be just the characters we enter.

  • Problem with adding url

    Okay to start with I'm not a flash programmer but this guy
    left me in a lurch and I had to add the url's to the links myself,
    the problem is that it messes up the rollover action.
    Here is the original:
    http://www.cecvp.com/header5.swf
    Here is the version with the urls put on the links:
    http://www.cecvp.com/header5_mod.swf
    There are other things I changed but ignore that, just focus
    on the behavious of the navigation links (home, about us, etc). In
    the second version the rollover stopped working.
    The process i used to add the url was to double click until i
    got to symbol 18 at which point i would double click on each link
    the select it then enter the url where the link symbol is in the
    properties window. It should also be noted that i got this error
    when publishing:
    **Error** Symbol=Symbol 18, layer=Layer 1, frame=1:Line 1:
    Wrong number of parameters; getURL requires between 1 and 3.
    getURL();
    Total ActionScript Errors: 1 Reported Errors: 1

    I fixed the geturl error so ignore that.
    This forum is pretty slow....

  • What's the problem with the URL

    Someday when I entered an URL into IE browser, I typed like http://greatsite./greatday. Unfortunately, after that, every time when I enter a URL into IE like http://greatsite/someday, it will change to http://greatsite./someday automatically, then the error page below is followed. What's the problem?
    The web server is IBM HTTP Server or Apache web server. Not just with my box, any other machines have the same problem with http://greatsite. How can I correct this problem?
    Any help would be great!
    The error page:
    11001 Host was not found
    The host specified in your URL could not be found.
    This error could have been caused by:
    Bad / misspelled URL
    Following an invalid link
    Your network connection and/or transient conditions on the Internet

    There are other browsers you could use.

  • Problem with Enter key and JOptionPane in 1.4

    Hi,
    I had a problem with an application I was working on.
    In this application, pressing [Enter] anywhere within the focused window would submit the information entered into the form that was contained within the frame.
    The application would then try to validate the data. If it was found to be invalid, it would pop up a JOptionPane informing the user of that fact.
    By default, pressing [Enter] when a JOptionPane is up will activate the focused button (in most cases, the [OK] button) thus dismissing the dialog.
    In JDK 1.3 this worked fine. But in JDK 1.4, this has the result of dismissing the dialog and opping it up again. This is because the [Enter] key still works on the frame behind the JOptionPane and thus tries to validate it again, which results in another invalid dialog msg popping up.
    The only way to get out is to use the mouse or the Esc key.
    Now, in the application I put in a workaround that I was not very happy with. So, to make sure it wasn't the application itself, I created a test which demonstrates that it still misbehaves.
    Here it is.

              KeyStroke enterKey = KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER, 0, true);
              button.getInputMap(JComponent.WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW).put(enterKey, "test");
              button.getActionMap().put("test", action);
              contents.add(field);
              contents.add(button);
              frame.pack();
              frame.setVisible(true);
    }Does anyone have any solution to this problem?

    I know that focus management has changed alot.
    Based on my experimentation a while back, in 1.4 it still believes that the JFrame is the window in focus, even though a JOptionPane is currently in front of it (unless I misinterpreted what was going on). Thus, the frame seems to get the keyboard event and re-invoke the action.

  • Problem with c:url

    I am having problems with the c:url tag.
    When I load a page with a c:url tag (see end of message for page specification), when I click on the link that references the c:url, the system tries to load the page named $url instead of loading page /somepage.jsp. It looks like the resulting code does not replace the ${url} variable with the value of the variable. If I add the following statement:
    <c:out value="${url}"/>
    after the definition of the c:url tag, I can see that variable url is set to /somepage.jsp.
    Is there some configuration I must do to fix this problem or should I use some more recent libraries? I am using jstl.jar and standard.jar that came with JWSDP 1.3. I am using Tomcat 5.0.19.
    <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core" prefix="c" %>

  • Problem with file:/// URLs in Safari 2

    I am seeing some confusing behaviour with file:/// URLs: a very simple HTML file with that type of link works as expected (opens the nominated folder) when loading it as a local file from my disk, but when I put it on our web server and retrieve it from there, nothing happens when I click on the file:/// link.
    This is happening under Safari 2.0 on OS X 10.4.2 (cross-tested on a brand-new iMac), but by comparison does not happen under Safari 1.2.4 under OS X 10.3.8 on an old eMac.
    The HTML source as viewed in the browser when loading it each way is identical:
    Go here: link
    Has anyone else seen -- and hopefully resolved -- this?
    Thanks,
    Robert

    I tried clicking on the link and nothing whatsoever happened. So I tried a control click and selected "Open Link in new window" and a new window opened, followed by the Utilities folder opening. I made a test.html file with the link in it, put it on my startup drive and it worked as expected, and ditto for putting it on a second internal drive. I then put it on my iDisk and navigated to it thru its web site address of
    http://homepage.mac.com/francines/testlinks.html
    and discovered that the two other "local" operation links (to launch ScriptEditor) both worked, but the open folder link no longer did, except by using control click and choosing either "Open link in new window" or new tab. A new Safari window or tab opens, then the Utilities folder opens.
    I then tried the page in Firefox, and it didn't work AT ALL, not even with new window or tab. I then tried Mozilla and Netscape. Same deal. The ancient Internet Explorer opened the Utilities folder inside a new browser window rather than the Finder. This might be a clue as to why the link doesn't work as expected, but unfortunately I don't know what it means.

  • Problem with Enter Query

    Hi all,
    I'm facing a problem with the Enter_Query. The problem is when i press F7, all the details in a form (Except primary key i.e.., Document Reference) are cleared (After asking for Do you want to save the changes). When I try to do F8, It is searching for the same Document Reference. When I try to find out the error, I got the description as the function key is not allowed. The Document reference is not getting cleared unless i exit the form. I'm using Oracle 10g, Forms and Reports (6i Version).
    Regards,
    Alok Dubey

    Unless you are using a onetime only where clause then the DEFAULT_WHERE remains as it is a property of the block. This will not be cleared by an F7 unless you explicitly clear it by setting it to NULL.
    Or
    I've misunderstood what you say.
    Are you saying that you have an item that is not being cleared? If so is it on the same block as the one you are clearing?

  • Problem with entering Discussions due to invalid cookie?

    Quite often, when trying to enter Discussions, while using Safari, I get the message: "…We're having a problem processing your login.   9: invalid cookie supplied Unknown status code: 9…". Some time later, without apparent reason, things are functioning fine again.
    Using Firefox did never show such problem.

  • Problem with entering integer numbers from keyboard

    I have written this simple code:

    second number and press Enter.
    But if I type in one line: 2 3 (with space between) I get run-time error:

    I know that error is coming from Integer.parseInt(string) in my code, but I
    don't know how can I avoid it.
    In C that is rather simple scanf("%d %d",&first,&second), but in Java it's much more

    Do you have any suggestions how to solve this problem?

    store the user input in a string
    use a StringTokenizer st
    then
    while(st.hasNext())
    int first=Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken());
    but you should really catch a NumberFormatException

  • Strange problem with JDBC URL

    Hi All,
    I don't know whether this is a known issue which has a workaround or I am doing something wrong. But this is the problem.
    I have a nice GUI application which takes the JDBC URL, Driver, User name and password and then takes the input and tries to establish a connection with the Database. I was trying it on MySQL and I encountered a problem.
    The general format of the JDBC URL for MySQL is "jdbc:mysql://<ip_address>:<port>/<db_name> and if I have MySQL running on 3306 and if I give the URL as:
    "jdbc:mysql://localhost:9001" (where my HSQL is running), then, it never gets the connection and the application stays there forever (the call never returns after the DriverManager.getConnection() statement). And if I give the port as something else (say 9898) where nothing is running, then the getConnection() doesn't send me a SQLException.
    What could be the problem?

    Are you saying that you're connecting using the
    MySQL driver to an HSQL database, and
    that this results in a hang (rather than a timeout)?
    Just to clarify that I've understood the problem.
    If so, it should be fairly easy to get a simple test
    scenario up and running independent from your "real"
    application. Have you tried this, and could you post
    the code if so?
    Dave.Hi Dave,
    Thank you very much trying,
    Sorry if my English was poor. I am not trying to connect to HSQLDB using the MySQL Driver.
    Actually, I am trying to connect to MySQL db using the MySQL driver, but the DriverManager.getConnection() method hangs when I...
    1. Give a wrong URL e.g(jdbc:mysql://localhost:9001/")
    2. Run my MySQL on default port (3306)
    3. And If I have HSQL or any other program that is listening at port 9001.
    The problem seems to be very strange. here's the code below, you can try out yourself...
    import java.sql.DriverManager;
    import java.sql.SQLException;
    public class Demo {
         public static void main(String[] args) {
              try {
                   Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
                   DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:9001/", "user", "password"); // <-- The call hangs here
              } catch (SQLException e) {
                   e.printStackTrace();
              } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
                   e.printStackTrace();
    }Remember to have your mysql*.jar file in your classpath while running. :)
    Thank you....
