FireFox displaying Search interface incorrectly

All- I'm a newbie with RoboHelp. My issue is that an HTML
Help UI isn't displayed properly in FireFox 3.0.3, but h it DOES
display properly in IE 6. Just below are links to the the
upper-left corners of my Help interface when Search is selected. As
you can see, for IE, a space appears prompting the user for a
search term. But for FireFox, the prompt doesn't appear. Instead,
what looks like alphabet letter index tabs appears.
IE Search area
...and here's the way it looks in FireFox 3.0.3

Your help is appreciated. Note that I'm using RoboHelp 7.0.2
Thanks!

Hi Kurt
Is JavaScripting disabled in FireFox? WebHelp output relies
heavily on JavaScripting to weave its magick.

All Menus in Firefox Display Incorrectly

Every menu in Firefox displays incorrectly. All menus appear to be the entire Firefox window shrunk down into the bounds of the menu. I can even see part of the menu in the stretched version. I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit and I've reinstalled Firefox several times. I wonder if it has something to do with my Window FX 5.1, but I've set it to exclude Firefox as an app.

Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

Firefox display correctly on laptop and incorrectly on desktop

I have a wedsite www.fea4you.com. It is displayed correctly on my laptop with Firefox. However, Firefox display on my desktop messed up. I tried to reinstall Firefox over the existing one. The problem couldn't be solved. Should I uninstall Firefox and then reinstall it?
BTW, both Internet Explorer and Chrome display correctly.
Thank you.

I use Tools > Clear Recent History. It worked.
Thank you, cor-el.

Altavista will not display search results

altavista us will not display search results. altavista canada works fine. On us site results will display in no style page but not in basic page style. The page comes up blank. This may have been caused by delta search. I think I have rid my computer of delta? Reloaded firefox. I use norton 360 and have run registry clean up and virus scans. Also cleaned explorer. In explorer the u.s. altavista works ok that is why I think it something to do with firefox and delta search showed up at the same time unwanted and forced a change on my home page. Have cleared computer of what delta files I could find my have something in the registry but I would not know what to look for or to do with. I am running xp

In a round about way you solved my problem cor-el ! At the end of standard diagnostic there was mention of malware so I ran malwarebytes before running profile manager. malwarebytes found 21 items some in the registry. deleted these items and tried altavista us again and to my surprise it is working ok now.I thought norton 360 would catch such things but I guess it doesn't ! will keep and run a malware program from now on. thank you for your help.

Show page correct - store search results incorrect

Hi. I submitted my feed:
http://www.tomrbaynham.com/feed/podcast/
Received the iTunes show page:
http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=337486702
The show page has the correct details - Podcast image, "The Investigative Author" and description etc.
When I search for my show in iTunes, the search results display the old information when I initially submitted the feed: Default Wordpress image, original blog title "The First Time Author". If I select the show, it shows the page with the correct, updated information.
How can I get the search page to update? It seems bizzare that the search is incorrect when the actual show page is up-to-date.
Any help is much appreciated!

I'm afraid I can't answer that - I'm not privy to the exact method by which the various parts of the Store work. If you feed is behaving entirely correctly in the Store page then there isn't anything you can do except wait and hope it will eventually correct itself: you could ask Support -
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/podcast/
but I'm afraid you will probably only get a form answer which likely won't address the problem.

How to display search results in content area

Hi
How can I display search results in the content area as seen in sdn.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/cc/f4e77ddef1244380b06fee5f8b892a/frameset.htm you find the relevant guidelines.
You can filter the PCD object setting the Search Layout Set of your Searc Iview.
In System Admin > System Configuration > Content Management > User Interface > Settings > Layout Set and duplicate the "SearchResultLayoutSet" layout set.
Then you have to duplicate its Collection Renderer "StandardSearchResultRenderer".
In its property "Resource Types to be Filtered" set as value "-http://sap.com/xmlns/pcd/app/iview".
Then assign the new Collection Renderer to the new Layout Set and that's it!
Now if yuor Search Iview uses this new Layout Set, when you search a PCD object the iviews will not be shown!
(or)
In the entry "Predefined Properties" of the search options set, you will need to enter "resourcetype(value=http://sap.com/xmlns/pcd/app/page/default)" if you want the search to be limited to resources defined as pages. Leave out /default if you dont want the end user to be able to change the filter.
If you want the parameter reflected in the URL, you can find information about how to do it here: /message/280371#280371 [original link is broken]
Check and try either ways.

Ponneswari A.

Firefox displays gmail in huge font but other web sites show it in regular fonts

when I open gmail in Firefox it has just started coming up in huge fonts so that i can only see part of the screen. When I open gmail in Internet Explorer or AOL, it comes up just fine and I can see the whole screen. How can I restore the Firefox display to normal?

PERFECT. Many thanks for the prompt response.

Has Mozilla changed the way Firefox displays @font-face enbeded fonts? The site I'm codeing works in Safari, Chrome, and IE, but Firefox 8.0.1 doesn't display the embeded font.

[Bug Report] CR4E V2: Exported PDF displays Japanese characters incorrectly

We now plan to transport a legacy application from VB to Java with Crystal Reports for Eclipse. It is required to export report as PDF file, but result PDFs display Japanese characters incorrectly for field with some mostly used Japanese fonts (MS Gothic & Mincho).
Here is our sample Crystal Reports project: [download related resources here|http://sites.google.com/site/cr4eexportpdf/example-of-cr4e-export-pdf]
1. PDFExportSample.rpt located under ..\src contains fields with different Japanese fonts.
2. Run SampleViewerFrameClient#main(..) to open a Java Report Viewer:
 a) At zoom rate 100%, everything is ok.
 b) Change zoom rate to 200% or 50%, some fields in Japanese font collapse.
 c) Export to PDF file,
 * Fonts "MS Gothic & Mincho": both ASCII & Japanese characters failed.
 * Fonts "Meiryo & HGKyokashotai": everything works well.
 * Open PDF properties, you will see all fonts are embedded with built-in encoding.
 * Interest to note that copy collapsed Japanese characters from Acrobat Reader, then
 paste them into a Notepad window, Notepad will show the correct Japanese characters anyway.
 It seems PDF export in CR4E mistaking to choose right typeface for Japanese characters
 from some TTF file.
3. Open PDFExportSample.rpt in Crystal Report 2008 Designer (trial version), and export it as PDF.
 The result PDF displays both ASCII & Japanese characters without any problem.
Test environment as below:
* Windows XP Professional SP3 (Japanese) with MS Office which including extra fonts (i.e. HGKyokashotai)
* Font version: MS Gothic, Mincho, Meiryo, all in Version 5.0
 You can download MS Meiryo from Microsoft's Site:
 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=F7D758D2-46FF-4C55-92F2-69AE834AC928&displaylang=en)
* Eclipse 3.5.2
* Crystal Reports for Eclipse, V2, 12.2.207.r916
Can this problem be fixed? If yes how long will it take to release a patch?
We really looking forward to a solution before abandoning CR4E.
Thanks for any reply.

I have created a [simple PDF file|http://sites.google.com/site/cr4eexportpdf/inside-the-pdf/simple.pdf?attredirects=0&d=1] exported from CR4E. It is expected to display "漢字" (or in unicode as "\u6F22\u5B57"), but instead being rendered in different ones of "殱塸" (in unicode as "\u6BB1\u5878").
Look inside into this simple PDF file (you can just open it with your favorite text editor), here is its page content:
8 0 obj
<</Filter [ /FlateDecode ] /Length 120>>
stream ... endstream
endobj
Decode this stream, we get:

The only embeded font subset is defined as:

<21> <21> <5b57> <-- "u5B57"
endbfrange
endcmap CMapName currentdict /CMap defineresource pop end end
endobj
I can write out the embedded TrueType font subset (= "14 0 obj") to a file named "[embedded.ttc|http://sites.google.com/site/cr4eexportpdf/inside-the-pdf/embedded.ttf?attredirects=0&d=1]", which is really a tiny TrueType font file containing only the wrong typefaces for "漢" & "字". It seems everything OK except CR4E failed to choose right typefaces from the TrueType file (msgothic.ttc).
Is it any help? I am looking forward to any solution.

Sliding text in Firefox location/search bars

It has come to my attention that, when I use a bitmap font for my GTK apps, the text in Firefox's search and location bars tends to slide arround annoyingly when selected. Here's a screenshot of this:
The "sliding" is visible in the circled areas.
Is there anything that can be done about this?

Anyone know the reason this occurs in apps that aren't pure GTK? Does it have something to do with Cairo? Firefox can IIRC be compiled with Cairo support - would that fix it?

How can I get Firefox to search my computer for plugins that are already there?

How can I get Firefox to search my computer for plugins that are already there?
Adobe's Flash player is already on my computer from IE 8. How can I get Firefox to see that it is already on my PC and use it so I don't have to download it again and possibly create other problems. Also, in my efforts to download Flash, Firefox activated IE which made me concerned that proceeding WOULD cause problems our just leave me where I am now where IE can use Flask but Firefox cannot.

Internet Explorer uses a ActiveX version of the Flash player plugin as it does not work with other browsers.
Download the Plugin-based browsers version from https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html and make sure Firefox is closed when you install it.

Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime to boot into Safe Mode. Keep holding the Shift key until you see a progress bar towards the bottom of the screen. You can let go of the Shift key at that point.
OS X asks you to log in (you will get this screen on a Safe Mode boot even if your Mac is set to automatically log in). Let the Mac finish booting to the desktop and then restart normally. This will clear Font Book's database and the cache files of the user account you logged into in Safe Mode.
Next, close all running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal app and enter the following command. You can also copy/paste it from here into the Terminal window:
sudo atsutil databases -remove
Terminal will then ask for your admin password. As you type, it will not show anything, so be sure to enter it correctly.
This removes all font cache files. Both for the system and the current user font cache files. After running the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.
