Advice needed - IE Browser

I'm not sure if this is the correct forum but I need some good advice on where to start. I like the idea of keeping my applications 100% Java or as near as possible. I am not a windows programmer and I haven't used the ActiveX Bridge yet.
Problem: I need to capture events like url's and mouseovers etc from an IE Browser and send actions to the IE Browser. I need to do this using a Java application on a windows OS (doesn't matter which one). Any good pointers to where to start would be very welcome.
Or should I give up and use C++ ?

Well, at the risk of being battered by the gallery
here: you application seems a natural fit for
JavaScript.this seems pretty reasonable to me too.

you are capturing events from where? (IE or java application)
passing them to where (IE or java application)
you mention IE for both instances but than also talk about the java application so i really don't understand the flow here... could you clarify this.
if you are going from java to ie through you could probably just a combination of java, javascript. if you are doing something more complex you will need something more complex. i have not used any of the technologies that send allow you to access win32 apis or apps from java directly very much. if you know how to do it quickly in c++ yourself it might be wise.
what you could do is write some sort of interface to use in java to access the IE API and then write an implementation using native methods. this would allow you to get things going now while making everything flexible so you can plug-in a pure java solution later.
well that's my two-cents

  • Advice needed on buying iphone as gift

    I went to apple store, they do not want to sell iphone to me unless I sign AT&T 2 years plan. I thought AT&T has locked the phone and users must subscribe in order to use it. Why Apple store still not allow me to buy?
    Please advice, if I want to buy online iphone for my brother, do I or my brother have obligation to sign out AT&T plan?
    One more advice needed, I found the shipment takes weeks, do I have option to arrange for self-collection?
    My brother birthday is coming soon, I need above advice urgently.
    Thank you very much

    I'm guessing English is not your first language. It's possible that you misunderstood them. Apple Store employees won't refuse to sell you an iPhone and you don't have to sign up for service in the store.
    Well that's not entirely true.
    Apple Stores have been instructed not to sell you an iPhone if any of the following is true:
    • You state that you will not be signing up with AT&T.
    • You do not have an ID from a US state, also indicating you will not be activating with AT&T
    • You do not have a credit card
    For example, I've seen US Apple Store managers refuse to sell iPhones to European residents because of the AT&T lock-in.

  • Video intensive work on Mac Pro? Advice Needed

    Hi everyone,
    I've been originally saving up for a while now for an iMac 24" as it offers the best specification price wise. But now I leaning on the Mac Pro and therefore need some advice.
    I know that there are alot of posts on advice - need to buy mac etc. so therfore I would really appreciate if I am afforded some help.
    I am mostly going to do ALOT of video encoding (via handbrake) and I am looking for the best configuration available to achieve lowest waiting time.

    I think you should go back and look at the other threads with advice, your budget. There is "ideal" and "affordable."
    Will it pay for itself in 24 months so you can afford the next revision at that time?
    Start with an 8-Core 3GHz.
    Add a Port Multiplier controller and two drive cases, 5 drives each, nearly 400MB/sec RAID.
    Throw in 8GB RAM.
    Add in costs for software upgrades, two sets of backups, four internal 500GB drives.
    Seagate has 750GB, as does WD. Hitachi has their $450 1000GB monster.
    Give yourself time to build, test, and optimize your setup, and expect to change it over time as you learn more.
    Can't afford that? then trim the 8-core. But Apple has shown how efficient next generation applications already are for video when it comes to 3GHz 8-core Mac Pro.

  • Had to have a rebuild of my laptop....advice needed!

    Had to have a rebuild of my laptop....have now lost all my music from my itunes, but I can't transfer back on from my ipod. Also had to register my laptop (same) as another computers, so now no music showing as purchased, though I have. Also have hours of uploaded music from my own purchased, legitimate CDs, but won't transfer from ipod...it says it will erase. So very frustrated....thanks mr technician!    PLEASE  ....help, advice needed!

    I believe that if you do a clean reinstall from your HD's recovery sector (D) or Recovery disks, the hard drive sector C is wiped clean. Everything goes, apps, data, address books, music, pix, viruses
    Is that what you did?

    Hi
    That screen grab helps a lot. There’s a much easier way of doing what you’re doing.
    Remove all your tabs and set the text in justified paragraphs.
    I’ve typed in dummy text in the example I made below, but after “19.1” put in a space and put your blinking cursor after the space and before the ’N’ of ‘Notices'.
    Then hold down the Command key and hit Backspace (on Mac at least - it’s the key between the Inverted commas/ apostrophe key and the return key).
    The text will jump into place the way you want it to.
    Hope that helps
    Paul
    PS You can set a tab, instead of using a space, in the description I gave above. So, after 19.1 or 19.2 or 19.185 etc etc insert a tab, then hit the Command Backspace after every paragraph number and they'll all line up exactly together. You'll find that editing text within the paragraphs
    after you've set it will be LOADS easier this way.
    You can put the tab anywhere you want it to be using 'Command-ShiftT' and putting a 'left align' tab just after the number. Just type the Command Backspace after the paragraph number and it'll work

  • What privilege is needed to browse all tables in a schema

    I used SQLPlus to login to DB. When I clicked "table" in the left side window, no tables is shown. What privilege is needed to browse all tables in a schema?
    Thanks.

    SQL*Plus is a command-line interface. There is no side window to click on. Perhaps you're talking about SQL Programmer? Or are you talking about some other tool?
    What user are you logging in as? What user owns the objects? Do you just want to see that the tables exist? Or do you want to be able to see the data as well?

  • I have apple TV 2 and I am on a network requiring a password.The apple tv has established a connection which was confirmed by my provider. however i cannot log on and my provider tells me I need a browser to request the password and id.

    apple tv has connected to the network but it does not ask for a password therfore I cannot log on. MY provider confirmed that i am connected but says that i need a browser that will ask for my id and Password for the network so I can log on. please help.

    AppleTV does not have a browser so it cannot connect to services requiring a browser based authentication to set up the connection.
    It is designed to connect to standard wifi connections where the network name and password are entered in the network settings for AppleTV.
    Browser based authentication systems only generally work with computers/smartphones or tablets.

  • Can I download the stand-alone Flash Player that does not need a browser? I have ver 11.5 r502 that I d/l last year; would like a newer release.

    Can I download the stand-alone Flash Player that does not need a browser? I have ver 11.5 r502 that I d/l last year (11 Feb 2013); would like a newer release.
    Can't find much about the standalone viewer, except in the Flash Builder docs, which says a .swf can specify to use it. I can't find a download link.
    Thanks, Doug

    You can download the standalone player (Projector) from https://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
    Note that the download is the player, not an installer, so you need to make the .swf file association manually.

  • Newbie advice needed with Safari browser

    Hi,
    I have got this weird thing going on with safari.
    I will go to a website, and it will display perfectly, then I will go to the next and I only get text and no images. Where the images should be I get a little blue square with a question mark in.
    Example: I will go to Ebay.co.uk This shows up just fine with images and all.
    Then I click on the login button, and the login page will display as mentioned above, with the blue squares.
    What changes do I have to make to make this page show up ok as well??
    Any advice would be much appreciated
    Thanks in advance

    HI Peter,
    From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences and select the Appearance tab.
    Select the box where you see: Display images when the page opens.

  • Need some advice about cross browser display

    Hi, I'm still trying to master css design and having a few
    problems getting my pages to look the same on Opera and FF. I'm not
    sure where I'm going wrong.
    The site looks pretty much how it's meant to in IE (though
    still in draft stage), but all sorts of gaps and spaces appear in
    the other browsers that ruin the look.
    Also in the 'restauraunts' 'shopping' and 'things to do'
    pages the content drops way down on the page and I don't know why
    that is either.
    http://www.sorrentoquay.com.au/new_index.html
    ps: I know I have a 916px image (the dropshadow) which is
    causing the content to drop way down the page in FF and Opera, but
    this is supposed to be in column with the content column lining up
    along side it. It's doing what it's meant to do in IE.
    I appreciate the responses so far, thankyou.

    You must have fixed the original problem, because I don't see
    any dropping
    content in FF as I did when you posted originally.
    However, your 'shadow' is not going all the way down the page
    as it does in
    IE7. Have you thought about moving that image out of the html
    as using it
    as a background image in that dive and repeating it on the
    'y' axis)... may
    also solve some of the gap problems you may be seeing, though
    I can't see
    them this time roung.

  • Multiple device syncing advice needed and appreciated.

    Hey everyone, happy holidays to everyone
    I need some advice from you Apple lovers out there if you can spend some time replying.  Thanks alot in advanced
    My devices and current status
    13" Macbook Pro with 8gig RAM with lion OS - Mosty used for word processing, DJing, low Internet usage now that i have Ipad, photo management, DVD ripping etc etc - i use this as my main device to organise emails and i purchase most apps, music and films on this device too
    Ipad2 - Mostly for media content, web browsing, Youtube, playing games, FB, watching films. I use this device for fun not functionality or work related things
    Iphone 4 - Usual phone usage, I use my phone as my main device for iCal, contacts, checking emails/messages on the move
    2GB time capsule - brand new in the box as yet unused
    Generally speaking i get confused or change my mind frequently about what to sync to which device, i started off using icloud but then things got confusing and i had things real messed up, multiple same contacts, apps on differnet device, differnet music on all 3 devices so now for the moment i think of my Macbook as the main device with both my iphone and ipad backed up to the Macbook. I then back up all of this on a regular 500g external Hard Drive.
    So my questions are as follows
    1. Can and should i use icloud to back up my devices and if so how should i do this effectivly
    2. What syncing procedure would suit me best
    3. How should i integrate Timecapsule to my devices
    Any other suggestions would really be apreciated
    Thanks again

    The second part puzzles me - excuse me (but i honestly don't know) do both units give off a wifi signal of roughly equal 'amounts'?
    Yes. Since both are connected by "Ethernet" each base station is its own wireless network and you have a few options on how best to configure them.
    One of those options is to give both wireless networks the same Network Name (or SSID) so that you can, for example, "walk" a laptop from one to the other and stay connected. This is known as a roaming network.
    If this is something that you don't desire or have a requirement for, then leaving them as two separate wireless networks would work just as well.
    So what i am asking - i guess - is can i increase the distance the wifi signal reaches of the second unit (the time capsule - that is wired to the airport extreme)
    To extend the wireless range of the Time Capsule (TC) you would need another 802.11n AirPort, like the AirPort Express Base Station (AXn). This should get a stronger signal out to the garden. Of course, it would really depend on the distance from the TC to where you would like to place the AXn to get the best results.
    Let me know if you need help configuring the base stations.

  • Advice Needed - Migrating to Macbook Air

    This is a multi-facited question and I am seeking advice most of all.
    I have a 2008 iMac
    I would like to retire it and use my 2011 Mac Air as my primary computer (With a Thunderbolt Display)
    If I use the Migratiion Assistant - will I have to delete the files currently on my Mac Air?
    Is there a way to merge them?
    My concern is also space. With x free
    I have 256 ssd hard drive on my air. with 80 free
    The drive on the iMac is 320 Gig HD with 170 Gigs free
    I have important programs such as CS6 on my iMacs drive - I would prefer not to have to reinstall them.
    I have heard that there are issues with booting and updating an OS on an external drive.
    I have considered using Super Duper to move my iMacs system to an external drive and selectively boot to it as needed.
    Is that a good idea?
    Any advice is truly appreciated.

    A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs
    The Knowledgebase article Intel-based Mac: Some migrated applications may need to be updated refers to methods of dealing with migrating from PowerPC chips to Intel with the Migration Assistant safely. The authors of this tip have not had a chance to verify this works in all instances, or that it avoids the 10.6.1 and earlier Guest Account bug that caused account information to get deleted upon use of the Migration/Setup Assistant. However, a well backed up source that includes at least two backups of all the data that are not connected to your machine will help you avoid potential issues, should they arise. In event it does not work, follow the steps below.
    If you are migrating a PowerPC system (G3, G4, or G5) to an Intel-Mac be careful what you migrate.  Keep in mind that some items that may get transferred will not work on Intel machines and may end up causing your computer's operating system to malfunction.
    Rosetta supports "software that runs on the PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor that are built for Mac OS X". This excludes the items that are not universal binaries or simply will not work in Rosetta:
      1. Classic Environment, and subsequently any Mac OS 9 or earlier applications
      2. Screensavers written for the PowerPC System Preference add-ons
      3. All Unsanity Haxies Browser and other plug-ins
      4. Contextual Menu Items
      5. Applications which specifically require the PowerPC G5 Kernel extensions
      6. Java applications with JNI (PowerPC) libraries
    See also What Can Be Translated by Rosetta.
    In addition to the above you could also have problems with migrated cache files and/or cache files containing code that is incompatible.
    If you migrate a user folder that contains any of these items, you may find that your Intel-Mac is malfunctioning. It would be wise to take care when migrating your systems from a PowerPC platform to an Intel-Mac platform to assure that you do not migrate these incompatible items.
    If you have problems with applications not working, then completely uninstall said application and reinstall it from scratch. Take great care with Java applications and Java-based Peer-to-Peer applications. Many Java apps will not work on Intel-Macs as they are currently compiled. As of this time Limewire, Cabos, and Acquisition are available as universal binaries. Do not install browser plug-ins such as Flash or Shockwave from downloaded installers unless they are universal binaries. The version of OS X installed on your Intel-Mac comes with special compatible versions of Flash and Shockwave plug-ins for use with your browser.
    The same problem will exist for any hardware drivers such as mouse software unless the drivers have been compiled as universal binaries. For third-party mice the current choices are USB Overdrive or SteerMouse. Contact the developer or manufacturer of your third-party mouse software to find out when a universal binary version will be available.
    Also be careful with some backup utilities and third-party disk repair utilities. Disk Warrior, TechTool Pro , SuperDuper , and Drive Genius  work properly on Intel-Macs with Leopard.  The same caution may apply to the many "maintenance" utilities that have not yet been converted to universal binaries.  Leopard Cache Cleaner, Onyx, TinkerTool System, and Cocktail are now compatible with Leopard.
    Before migrating or installing software on your Intel-Mac check MacFixit's Rosetta Compatibility Index.
    Additional links that will be helpful to new Intel-Mac users:
      1. Intel In Macs
      2. Apple Guide to Universal Applications
      3. MacInTouch List of Compatible Universal Binaries
      4. MacInTouch List of Rosetta Compatible Applications
      5. MacUpdate List of Intel-Compatible Software
      6. Transferring data with Setup Assistant - Migration Assistant FAQ
      7. OS X Lion: How to use Migration Assistant to transfer files from another Mac
    Because Migration Assistant isn't the ideal way to migrate from PowerPC to Intel Macs, using Target Disk Mode, copying the critical contents to CD and DVD, an external hard drive, or networking will work better when moving from PowerPC to Intel Macs.  The initial section below discusses Target Disk Mode.  It is then followed by a section which discusses networking with Macs that lack Firewire.
    If both computers support the use of Firewire then you can use the following instructions:
      1. Repair the hard drive and permissions using Disk Utility.
      2. Backup your data.  This is vitally important in case you make a mistake
          or there's some other problem.
      3. Connect a Firewire cable between your old Mac and your new Intel Mac.
      4. Startup your old Mac in Transferring files between two computers using FireWire.
      5. Startup your new Mac for the first time, go through the setup and
           registration screens, but do NOT migrate data over. Get to your
           desktop on the new Mac without migrating any new data over.
    If you are not able to use a Firewire connection (for example you have a Late 2008 MacBook that only supports USB:)
    1. Set up a local home network: Creating a small Ethernet Network.
    2. If you have a MacBook Air or Late 2008 MacBook see the following:
      a. MacBook (13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008) and MacBook Pro (15-inch,
          Late 2008) - What to do if migration is unsuccessful;
      b. MacBook Air - Migration Tips and Tricks;
      c. MacBook Air - Remote Disc, Migration, or Remote Install Mac OS X and
          wireless 802.11n networks.
    Copy the following items from your old Mac to the new Mac:
    In your /Home/ folder: Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures, and Sites folders.
    In your /Home/Library/ folder:
    /Home/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Application Support/iCal (copy the whole folder)
    Also in /Home/Library/Application Support (copy whatever else you need including folders for any third-party applications)
    /Home/Library/Keychains (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Mail (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Preferences/ (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/Calendars (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/iTunes (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/Safari (copy the whole folder)
    If you want cookies:
    /Home/Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist /Home/Library/Application Support/WebFoundation/HTTPCookies.plist
    For Entourage users:
    Entourage is in /Home/Documents/Microsoft User Data Also in /Home/Library/Preferences/Microsoft.
    Credit goes to Macjack for this information.
    If you need to transfer data for other applications please ask the vendor or ask in the  Discussions where specific applications store their data.
    5. Once you have transferred what you need restart the new Mac and test to make sure the contents are there for each of the applications.
