Applet smudging while scrolling in Firefox

Someone else surely to God must be getting this problem. Its pretty unacceptable for a commercial application so everybody who programs java must have a workaround so come on what is it!!
If you take a page in firefox that has an applet and scroll up and down, tags in the background get smudged.

I think this should work. Scroll up and down in firefox and see the damage done to the surrounding area!

There he goes with the insults again.
Tell you what, thanks for trying, but don't bother. You're as annoying to me as I obviously am to you.
I probably am not as competent as you at Java. I have worked on a lot of stuff such as Burnout Revenge for Criterion, Stuart Little 2, 3 for games consoles, Treasure Planet Cat in the Hat, Buzz for MagentaSoftware. And I am one of two developers working for Articad Ltd which has the major share of Kitchen, Bedroom and Bathroom design software market. One of two means I have a massive influence on the company (I've been there for four years now), so if I was not reasonably competent I doubt I'd be in that role.
If I am lacking in Java experience its only because I dont specialise so much, and to be honest I do find the deployment aspects of Java immensely boring and unnecessarily complicated. I'll never change that opinion.
You just said yourself with your own words. "Although this Ubuntu machine is running 1.6.0_14, I have not managed to coax the browser into recognising the plugin2 technology. Although I have been meaning to look into it, I have not found the time.".
My thoughts are that these things should not need to be looked into. It distracts from the real aspect of development, the software itself.

  • Java applet freezes while loading on Firefox on Mac OS 10.9

    I am using Mac OS 10.9.4 with Firefox 32 and Java 7 update 67. The java applet freezes while loading for the first time. On double clicking, it loads successfully. Once the applet gets loaded then it loads successfully until the web-page is refreshed or cache is cleared. I don't see any error message or any errors in the java console logs. Any help on this issue, apart from the double click work around? Any permanent solution?

    This delay can also happen when Java has been unloaded from memory and needs to be reloaded from disk and (re)initialized.
    You may be tight on available (free) memory if this happens all the time.

  • Has anyone had issues with Firefox 13.1 while scrolling web pages

    While scrolling most but not all internet page words get jumpy and blurred. This same thing happened on version 13. I had no problems with 12 or ones before it.

    jscher2000, Thanks so much for such a fast reply. I made the change you suggested which works great.
    Looking forward to one day possibly helping someone myself.

  • Mousepad won't scroll in Firefox

    I know this question has been asked before by others, but none of the threads had a working answer and are unlikely to invite new ones as they are slightly old now.
    My Vaio touchpad/mousepad won't scroll in Firefox. It works in every other program (pdfs, Internet Explorer etc) and if a pdf is open as a webpage in Firefox, that will scroll, but normal webpages won't. The wheel on a USB mouse works fine, it's just the scroll function on the touchpad.
    I've updated the computer, checked for driver updates, uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, turned the computer on and off, cleared the cache etc. and pretty much everything I can think of or have seen in these forums and elsewhere, but nothing is working.
    Please help! Thanks.

    I have a dell XPS laptop with a synaptics touchpad and I have the same problem. The weird thing is that, unlike for many who have posted about this problem, scrolling did not stop working as soon as I updated to firefox 8. It was fine for a few weeks, maybe well over a month, and then one day, bam!, scrolling just died.
    I also noticed something bizarre: scrolling works for the first few seconds after restarting firefox while restored tabs are still loading. As soon as firefox has fully booted, scrolling stops working. This made me think that it's a conflict with one of the add-ons i have running, but disabling them all has not changed anything. I have not yet tried fully removing all of them yet. For now, my best solution is to go back to 3.6. why fix something that works, right?
    Anyway, given the number of users who have reported this problem and given how important scrolling is in the way we use the web and our computers in general, the fact that there is still no solution makes the developers over there at Mozilla look quite pathetic. It's kind of as if Ford build a car whose steering wheel can't turn and couldn't figure out why for months and months.

  • Java applet is screwed under both FireFox and Konqueror the same way

    Ok, we have IcedTea6 Java Plugin now, and Scottrader streaming quotes applet is working both under FireFox and Konqueror.
    The problem it is sort  of screwed (similar way under FireFox and Konqueror) with respect to what I  see under Windows.
    What should I do, file the bug with www.iced-tea.org ?

    By "screwed" I mean the inteface is seen just partially with respect to what I see under Windows Explorer -- only some buttons are avalilable.
    Another thing, but it's an old problem with real Java plugin, which was working under Konqueror long time ago -- the color of pull-down menus is dark-blue (text is not readable on it), while under Windows Exporer it is white.
    Are you averse to using Sun JRE if IcedTea is not working out for you?
    As to my knowledge, there is no Sun Java plugin for 64-bit Linux.

  • Firefox 4 download. Since, Windows start button options changed. Should be browser agnostic, can you please tell me how to fix this? While I love Firefox, this has me livid! (1 irony, Firfox is no longer in my Start button menu.)

    I first noticed an issue when looking for something normally located in the Accessories folder of MS programs. What I found upon clicking on "All Programs" was not the program file/folder tree I expected but rather a direct list of all files in the Program Files folder. I then went to open a new session of Firefox to research that issue and noticed my basic Start button options were also changed. Now, even focus for event-driven events is not working correctly. Again, while I love Firefox, this needs to be fixed immediately or I will be forced to uninstall the product just to function.

    Unfortunately I tried that and it didn't work. Thanks for the help though. I tried to uninstall and it said I couldn't because the file is corrupt or something, but I think I finally got it uninstalled and/or deleted or whatever, but now I try to reinstall/download it again from the beginning and I can't. No matter what I do I can not get Firefox working again. No matter how many times I try to redownload it. Any other suggestions?

  • SSRS 2008 R2 - Column Headers of a tablix visible while scrolling - Then the column headers not visible on 2nd page onwards for PDF EXPORT. it's vice versa. Hence it is possible to provide both at same time ?

    Hi,
    I am using SSRS 2008 R2.
    I have two TABLIX in a report.  One is TABLIX with row/clumn grouping. 2nd one is flat view.
    Here each tablix is dispaly it's data on single page for each.
    My Requirement on First TABLIX is:
         1. I have to make column headers visible on scrolling down
         2. Export to PDF - column headers must be visible on all the pdf pages  for same tablix data.
    But ... either one is achieved at my end.
    so ... any suggestions please to achieve both at same time.
    thank you in advance.
    best regards,
    venkat.

    Hi G.V.Naidu,
    According to your description, the first tablix is matrix to use display data.
    In SSRS, if we want to fix matrix header visible while scrolling and repeat header columns on each page, we can select the corresponding option to enable this function. Please refer to the steps below:
    1. Right click tablix, and select Tablix Properties.
    2. Select “Keep header visible while scrolling” and “Repeat header rows on each page” to enable these function.
    If we are use table to display data, please refer to the article about Repeat Header / Keep Header Visible in Tables.
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/robertbruckner/archive/2008/10/13/repeat-header-and-visible-fixed-header-table.aspx
    If there are any misunderstanding, please feel free to let me know.

    is there something I can change to improve scrolling in firefox? I've tried to turnoff desktop effects and scrolling is the same annd also running firefox from a fresh profile. Hence, i suspect my nvidia 9800GT card to be the culprit. If anyone has a working xorg.conf with nvidia, 64 bit and smooth scrolling on the above mentioned sites please SHARE! Many Thanks!

    Sorry, I don't use KDE, but it may be related to how do you start KDE: from xinit or via KDM or sth.

    It's running the same driver as before.

    Did you uninstall it? Did you install the nouveau driver? 'pacman -Qqs xf86-video' will tell you what drivers you have installed.
    No, I don't have the nouveau driver installed. I have to check if I have the nv driver installed but I didn't uninstall the nvidia driver. I'm starting KDE via xinit.

  • How to read the whole name of a music title while scrolling down a list of titles? With the new iOs7 Music App there is no more black box showing the entire name!

    How to read the whole name of a music title while scrolling down a list of titles? The old software-app had the function to click for a longer time on a titles beginning letters until a black box revealed the entire name. I miss this function especially for my classical music, because lots of pieces start with similar words. E.g.:
    "Beethoven: Variations On "Ein Mädchen Oder Weibchen", Op. 66 - Var. 1"
    "Beethoven: Variations On "Ein Mädchen Oder Weibchen", Op. 66 - Var. 2"
    Scrolling in a list of title, I can't distinguish the titles, because just the first words are shown followed by: "...".
    That's horrible!

    Or you could include a width to your body style:
    body {
    background-image: url(Logo/sky1.jpg);
    background-position: center center;
    background-attachment: fixed;
    width: 75%;}
    It might work or not depending on your other color scheme.

  • Lumia 925 blurry text while scrolling

    Noticed that my lumia 925 has a blurry text while scrolling, specially when scrolling white text over black background or black text over white background... also noticed some blurry when scrolling tiles on the home screen, this blurry occurred around the black horizontal lines separating the tiles.... compared the scrolling with the 920 and there is a huge difference...
    I read that some of the galaxy S4 units has this problem and that this problem related to Samsung AMOLED screens, and you know the lumia 925 has a Samsung AMOLED screen.
    Any one has these issues? let me know in comments please..

    I have the same issue with L1020.
    I am extremely annoyed and disappointed at Nokia for messing up the PERFECT display of L920.
    After using L920 for months and laughing at lower quality displays of other phones, this L1020 display feels like those typical phone displays.
    Are nokia engineers so incompetent or everyone of them have vision issues that you ship a phone with such s**t quality?

    Thanks in advance...............
    Ione

    Hi ione721,
    Since you have identified the 2 xml files are identical, according to my knowledge, there maybe a compatibility issue with IE 9 and SSRS 2008 R2, so I suggest that you could run the report in compatibility mode. Please make sure you have turned on Compatibility
    View in Internet Explorer 9 by following steps:
    When Internet Explorer recognizes that a webpage is not compatible, you will see the Compatibility View button on the Address bar. Try clicking it.
    When Compatibility View is turned on, the button changes from an outline to a solid color when you view the page.
    The following screenshots are for your reference:
    If you have any questions, please feel free to let me know.

  • Darkened Letter box while scrolling--doesn't work in all menus

    I know that one of the latest firmware updates to the iPod included a feature that shows the letters (A, B, C) while scrolling through the list.
    It works for artists, albums, and songs, but not for all other windows. It doesn't seem to work in Notes, or other menus.
    Has anyone else noticed this? Is this intentional or is there a way for this feature to be used in all menus and sub-menus?

    I believe this feature only works when scrolling threw songs and videos (including any playlists).
