Basic HTTP Auth in HTML component

When I use the HTML component in AIR and visit a page which
has basic HTTP Auth and enter the correct username/password the
credentials window just comes back up. In Firefox, IE, Safri and
Opera it seems to be working. Can anyone please help?

I checked out what is happening between HTMLLoader and your
site using Wireshark. Your site is configured to use
NTLM / Negotiate
authentication.
Hittting ok after entering the username and password seems to
send the Authenticate header correctly from AIR. Though I got the
dialog back because I do not know the correct credentials (and this
is supposed to work over the intranet only).
At a protocol level, nothing seems to be wrong. If you can
capture network traffic while using IE (where it works in your
case) and then using AIR, it would help us get to the
problem.

Basic http authentication not working when consuming Web Service in BPEL.

Hi,
I am consuming an AXIS Web Service from BPEL 10.1.3. The Web Service uses basic http
authentication so we need a way to get username and password into the http
header. In the Oracle BPEL Process Manager Administrator's Guide 10g
(10.1.3.1.0) section 1.3.4.1 HTTP Basic Authentication (10.1.2.0.2) is stated
that this can be done using the properties httpUsername and httpPassword. I
have set the 2 for the partner link in bpel.xml but username and password does
not get in to the http header. Has anybody got an idea?
Regards Pete

I'm having the same sorts of problems with 10.1.3.1.0. I've got a deployed BPEL suitcase that's trying to hit a BASIC AUTH-secured web service running on a WebLogic 8.1 server. I've set up my partner link according to the documentation, and the BPEL console Descriptor tab even shows the parameters correctly:
partnerLinkBindings
client
     wsdlLocation      awardService.wsdl
spsAwardSubmitPartnerLink
     basicHeaders      credentials
     basicUsername      ko1
     basicPassword      xxxxx
     wsdlLocation      IAwardDraftServiceRef1.wsdl
However, when I funnel the resultant call to the endpoint specified in IAwardDraftServiceRef1.wsdl, none of the fields I would expect show up in the HTTP header:
POST /pd2WebServices/service/IAwardDraftService HTTP/1.1
Host: vm-orcl-app-srv:4444
Connection: Keep-Alive, TE
TE: trailers, deflate, gzip, compress
User-Agent: Oracle HTTPClient Version 10h
SOAPAction: ""
Accept-Encoding: gzip, x-gzip, compress, x-compress

<IAwardDraft>
<accessController/>
<agreementEndDate/>
Is there some other configuration piece I'm missing?? I've tried the other variation using httpBasicHeaders, with the same results. I even noted that the "Oracle® BPEL Process Manager Administrator's Guide" says that "Starting with Oracle BPEL Process Manager release 10.1.3, all partner link properties are automatically propagated into the HTTP header." I've tried putting "extra" parms in the partner link bindings, but they don't show up either.
What am I missing??
Thanks,
Mike

2     Fitting the repeater in a box that can be hidden
3     Open HTML pages from the repeater by dragging them into a bigger HTML component
The first two points work great, no problems there. But the third is a bit more more demaning.
I set off trying to get this to work with images and that worked just fine. Apart from not being able to see what i'm dragging, minor issue. Now i try this with the HTML component things start to change. I guess this has to do with the fact that the mouse pointer interacts with the page shown in the HTML component rather then with the HTML component itself.
Can anyone help with this problem. If not i guess i'm going to work with images in the repeater, that should work.
Thanks in advanced for any input,
Daniel

No such component in 2.0. See http://blogs.adobe.com/aharui/2008/01/html_and_flex_1.html for more info.

Viewing flash based website in HTML component of AIR APP

Hello, I've got an air app where I'm trying to use the Html component to load up a flash website. Problem is that the website starts to load (I can see the preloader) and then the html component just goes blank. I wrote the html page I'm trying to load so I went in and did some trimming of javascript stuff that I didn't really need that I thought might be causing the issue, but, no dice. I'm also catch uncaughtScript errors from HTML, and there are none. Anybody have any ideas? The flash on the page that I'm loading only required flash player 8, so I'm thinking that shouldn't be an issue. The page I'm trying to load is www.socialsaga.com/air_index.php
Here is my little mxml file that won't properly display the site.
<mx:Panel title="Video Storage" xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" enabled="true" visible="true" width="100%" height="650"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ public function showDOM(ev:Event = null):void { var indEv:Event = ev; } public function uncaughtException(ev:Event = null):void { var whatException:Event = ev; } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:HTML uncaughtScriptException="uncaughtException()" htmlDOMInitialize="showDOM()" width="100%" height="100%" location="http://www.socialsaga.com/air_index.php" id="htmlOne"/> </mx:Panel>

That was a waste of a couple hours.... The reason it was not redering is because I had a glow filter effect on a parent
displayobject in the app... Really weird, cause html stuff would load, but flash would not show up.

AIR HTML component problem

I am using the AIR HTML component to load various website
directories with. However, any directory that gets loaded into the
HTML control that uses CAPTCHA, only loads maybe 2 pixels high
worth of the image. Is this a bug with the HTML control itself, or
have I failed to instantiate something? To see what I mean, try
loading this URL into AIR's HTML component.

I might add that this is flex 3 Retail version, not the beta.
Seems to work in the flex 3 milestone 4 beta.

HTML Component issue?

No "title" attribute support inside HTML component in AIR application?
For example, we have some text in our <mx:HTML> like this:
<html>
<body>
[ <a href="http://domain.tld/" title="Some hint text for this link" onmouseover="this.style.color='#f00'" onmouseout="this.style.color='#0f0'">Megalink</a> ]
</body>
</html>
And when we run our application and move cursor over link, color will be changed (so, mouse events handles correctly), but "Some hint text for this link" hint/tooltip will not be shown...
Bug/Feature/Misconfiguration?!?

Cache-Control and Accept-Encoding support in Adobe AIR HTML Component

I am evaluating Adobe AIR's HTML component and trying to figure out what is supported.
I built the AIR app and had it point to www.google.com
I notice that the requests to fetch JS,CSS from Adobe AIR do not include Accept-Encoding: gzip header.
Does Adobe AIR's HTML Component support Accept-Encoding : gzip header ?
I also noticed that even though the content served with far futures expiry, i.e. has Cache-Control: maxage={value} subsequent requests are being made and content is not served from the browser's cache.
I observed this accross the app restarts.
Can someone please clarify support of the two above Http headers ?
Thank you.

Adobe AIR HTML component ignores Google Maps GPolyline opacity

I have a Google Maps mashup web site that I want to display
in an
Adobe AIR app using the AIR HTML component. My mashup shows a
Google map with some semi-
transparent polylines (drawn as circles) drawn with the
Google Maps API . In Safari, everything looks
as it should. In AIR, the polylines are opaque; the GPolyline
opacity
value is ignored. I've tried the AIR app on Linux and Windows
XP.
Has anyone else encountered this issue or have some
suggestions?

HTML component, port number problem

I have an HTML component embedded inside an AIR app. When the
user makes this component visible, the HTML component simply loads
the contents of a URL. During development, I want to load content
from a locally running Web server on port 8080. However, this does
not seem to work. E.g., when I set
htmlComponent.location = "
http://localhost";
This works as expected. However,
htmlComponent.location = "
http://localhost:8080";
does nothing. I verified on the server that the HTML
component doesn't even attempt to connect to the server.
I also verified that this URL is valid and works (using my
local Web browser) as well as via curl. Further, I also tested the
connection via the URLMonitor class from within the AIR app: The
URL is available, according to the URLMonitor.
Any suggestions as to why the content can't be loaded from
the local port 8080 would be appreciated. This is pretty much a
show-stopper for me now, because I can't run the local server on
port 80 during development. FYI, I'm on OS X. Also, in previous
versions of AIR (about a year ago), I didn't have this problem.
Thanks,

Disabling flash display in Air HTML Component

Hi,
in my AIR application, I use an HTML Component in its own
sort of frame or container that has a viewing size that is smaller
than the web page itself. Next to it is a panel with many controls
in it. When a website with flash components (e.g. flash banners) is
displayed, the flash components in the HTML Component overlap the
control panel even though it's underneath in another container. Is
there a way to disable showing Flash in an HTML Component or
another way to make sure everything in an HTML Component stays on
its own layer?
Thanks for any help!

Hi,
I don't think the problem is because the URL is pointing to a
JSP. I think the problem might be with the JavaScript which is
trying to do operations which are not allowed. Please find more
details at the URL below.

Adjust aliasing of webfonts within an HTML component?

Hello,
I'm trying to use an icon font in an html page that is being loded into an HTML component. I read somewhere that the HTML component uses webkit as its rendering engine, but -webkit-font-smoothing in the web page's css appears to be ignored. Is there another way to adjust the aliasing of fonts within the HTML?
I've seen plenty of articles about embeding fonts in the flex application itself, but as far as I've been able to tell, that has no effect on the fonts in the HTML component itself.
Thanks for any help,

HTML component blinking cursor and combobox problems

Hi there.
I have a problem using a website displayed with the HTML component in a spark window. In any textfield in this homepage there is no blinking cursor displayed which is not really a problem but is still pretty confusing to the users. Another issue comes up with the comboboxes where the possible choices cannot be clicked with the mouse. Choosing an entry with the keyboard is possible though.
To reproduce this issue, add a html component in a spark window and load for example http://www.ard.de. The cursor is blinking in the search textfield in the top left. After clicking on the combobox on the left side - where i can't choose an entry with the mouse - the cursor in the textfield is no longer displayed.
Is this a known issue?
Best regards

Hi,
I've looked at your example and found the following 2 issues:
1. The cursor not appearing was actually a focus issue and you can fix it by adding an event listener on "windowActivate" in which to re-set the focus to the _htmlWindow. See the code below for more details on "onActivate()"
2. The issue with the dropdown is actually a bug (internal bug id #2721855) and it has been fixed in the next version of AIR which will be released towards the end of this year.

HTML component wont open link within component

I have a HTML component in my AIR app. When the page opens a youtube video feed that has copyright restrictions, a link to view the content on the youtube site itself, like the one shown here: http://www.youtube.com/v/WwoM5fLITfk?f=videos&app=youtube_gdata. When you try clicking this link nothing happens?
Can anyone tell me how i can open this link within my html component?
Many thanks

Hi,
I have this problem as well.
I posted a question here few days before you and still haven't got an answer for it.
My assumption is this issue started at the last SDK update. I don't see it if I work with flex 3.5.
Hope someone will give full answer to it soon... I am stock with my project because of it.

HTML component SVG support

I try to load a few images in an HTML component (Webkit/531.9). THe PNG, JPG and GIF images will load fine, but the SVG image does not load at all. The image will load in Chrome (Webkit/533.4) and Safari (Webkit/531.22.7) without a problem.
Is there any reason why this is not working in Air (version 2) ?
