FlashHelp on local system content blocked

Hi,
When viewing FlashHelp on the local system in Internet Explorer, the content is blocked by default. In order to view the help, I have to open the Adobe Flash Settings Manager and add an "Always Trust this Location" entry for the folder on my system where the help files are located. This area of the settings manager explains:
"Some websites may access information from other sites using an older system of security. This is usually harmless, but it is possible that some sites could obtain unauthorized information using the older system. When a website attempts to use the older system to access information..."
Is there a way to prevent this from happening? I will be distributing help to users' local computers, and it would not make sense to require the user to change settings in the adobe flash player settings manager before they are able to view my help files.
This FlashHelp was created using RoboHelp 7.
Thanks for your help,
Ronan

Hi Ronan
One possibility would be to also install a standalone web server application that would fool the Flash Player into believing the files were being served remotely.
Unfortunately, FlashHelp and WebHelp are really intended to be deployed from a server and not locally installed. So you need to resort to workarounds. Otherwise, consider deploying AIR Help or a CHM for local installs.
Cheers... Rick

  • How to check  wether local system has blocked by firewall  from program.

    i am a user in my LAN area. i don't have admin rights. in our LAN few system has blocked by firewall others not blocked .
    how can i check wether local host is blocked or not by firewall from java network program ?.

    You can execute some kind of firewall util (if any) and parse output to receive configuration and check is address blocked or no. But if you have no admin rights - it will not help you.
    Actually there is no clear way to detect was packet blocked by FW or just lost somethere.

    You can download Oracle's latest JDBC drivers from: http://otn.oracle.com/software/content.html
    You need to register, but it should be free.
    When you get the zip/jar-file, you have several options. You can either place it in the common classpath of your system/Servlet container (recommended if you use it in most of your webapps), or in the WEB-INF/lib directory of your webapp (if you only use it with that particular one).

  • Need to attach a pdf stored in local system in a mail

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement where i need to attach a pdf file stored in my local system (D:\\Templates\\InquiryResponceform). In FileData Source i am giving the file path as shown below FileDataSource source = new FileDataSource("D:\\Templates\\InquiryResponceform.pdf");
    When i am running the program it is sending the mail to the user but it is not attachning the pdf file.
    Below is the code which i am using:
    Properties properties = new Properties();
    properties.put("mail.smtp.host","HYDPROJSMTP");
    Session session = Session.getInstance(properties,null);
    javax.mail.Message message=new MimeMessage(session);
    message.setFrom(new InternetAddress("[email protected]"));
    message.setRecipient(javax.mail.Message.RecipientType.TO,new InternetAddress("[email protected]"));
    message.setSubject("TestMail");
    MimeBodyPart messageBodyPart=new MimeBodyPart();
    MimeBodyPart mimeBodyText=new MimeBodyPart();
    FileDataSource source = new FileDataSource("D:\\Templates\\InquiryResponceform.pdf");
    messageBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(source));
    messageBodyPart.setFileName("InquiryResponceform.pdf");
    mimeBodyText.setText("Hello");
    Multipart multipart = new javax.mail.internet.MimeMultipart();
    multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);
    multipart.addBodyPart(mimeBodyText);
    message.setContent(multipart);
    message.setText("Hi This is testmail");
    Transport.send(message);
    Please let me know how to achieve this. Points guaranteed
    Thanks in advance

    Your mistake is here:
    message.setContent(multipart);
    message.setText("Hi This is testmail");The setText call overwrites everything that was done by the setContent call,
    replacing the multipart content of the message with simple text content.

  • How to create a window with its own window border other than the local system window border?

    How to create a window with its own window border other than the local system window border?
    For example, a border: a black line with a width 1 and then a transparent line with a width 5. Further inner, it is the content pane.
    In JavaSE, there seems to have the paintComponent() method for the JFrame to realize the effect.

    Not sure why your code is doing that. I usually use an ObjectProperty<Point2D> to hold the initial coordinates of the mouse press, and set it to null on a mouse release. That seems to avoid the dragging being confused by mouse interaction with other nodes.

  • Allowing Global Security Settings for Local Flash Content

    Hi all,
    We have developed one e-learning course for our client. This
    course will be deployed on the CD; that means it will run locally.
    This CD will be dstributed to thousands of users. In this scenario
    I am currently suffering from the Global Security Settings issue as
    this project uses Fscommand to communicate with the javascript. We
    can set the Global Security mannually but it is not feasible to ask
    client to mannaully set the Security Settings to "always" as there
    are thousands of users viewing this course locally.
    I have tried setting "always" value to allowScriptAccess
    property of the Object/embed tag in the html but it does not work
    where the browser Security Settings are kept as "High".(I think
    this is the reason)
    So what will be the workaround for this issue?
    Please reply me if you gone through this problem and found
    any workaround.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Popocatepelt,
    Glad to hear that worked for you….
    Local Access Only allows the published SWF file to interact
    with files on the local system, but not on the network. Access
    Network Only lets the published SWF file interact with files and
    resources on the network, but not on the local system.

    Hi Paddy,
    the folllowing steps for ingetration of cfolder with Portal:
    1. login in to portal. there will be one tab content admin.
    2. click on content admin, there willl be one folder portal content. here u can create new folder like e.g cfolder.
    3. under this folder, u have to create IVIEW, WORK SET and Role.
    first create iview, while creating iview it ask for some details related to cfolder like application id, system id, ip address and url mentioned for cfolder. this u will find in BSP application SE80 Tcode.
    same create roles and work set and assign roles to workset and iview to workset.
    4.then go to user admin here u have to map user ids in EP. it is only for mapping purpose so that there will be single login . they dont need to login again into cfolder if they accessing cfolder through ep.
    5. then go to system admin here u can create themes.
    click on content admin

  • "Local System" Deployment and double hop scenarios

    Hi all,
    I was wondering if some of you have implemented a good solution dealing with the fact that all ConfigMgr 2012 Applications got executed in local system context and that there is no good solution to execute them with other credentials. We checked the options
    in a TS to run with different credentials as well as Network Access Accounts (winrm, remoting) 
    Both solutions doesn't fit our requirements. We usually deploy some infrastructure components or roles using ConfigMgr 2012. Many of these applications use Cmdlets provided by the vendor to install and configure. Some of these Cmdlets connect back to other
    infrastructure components and produce a double hop scenario. Citrix infrastructure components are a good sample.
    As it is not allowed to impersonate a user by local system, it's really hard to find a good solution which still allows "natural" powershell scripts without several hacks. 
    I'think we have found a good solution for creating PSCredentials in our scripts and use them to invoke the commands, but we still see the double hop issue then. 
    My question is: 
    - Do you guys face the same issues in real life? How do you deal with "local system" and "domain accounts" used for SW Distribution? 
    - Do you use CredSSP ? Any hints or suggestions regarding this? 
    - Any other cool idea to impersonate or address double hop ? 

    Hi Sebastian,
    >no good solution to execute them with other credentials.
    >allows
    "natural" powershell scripts without several hacks. 
    There is no perfect solution to including credentials, but there are some good options out there.  One is to use a Task Sequence to deploy your application with the "Run
    Command Line" step which allows you the option to "Run this step as the following account".  Another option is to include
    the password with the PowerShell script.
    Both options allow you to remove the hop of executing as Local System by default. Both options have the same drawback that the password is not really securely stored
    (they are encrypted somewhat reversibly).
    > different credentials as well as Network Access Accounts
    The Network Access Account is (and should be) only used for downloading content from the distribution point.  It is not used to execute things locally on the managed device.
    >Do you use CredSSP ? Any hints or suggestions regarding this? 
    Are there any specific problems you are having with CredSSP
    that arent explained here?
    I hope that helps,

  • Unable to view local HTML content from "Help Content Only" SSL  iFrame

    Hi
    Can anyone confirm whether it is possible to view local HTML files within an iFrame when generating Help Content Only SSL content which is also locally deployed?
    I have had no problem viewing local html files from within an iFrame with a locally viewed Browser-Based Help project but despite trying a number of variations on the syntax, I simply cannot obtain the same result from a Help Content Only SSL that is then incorporated within a merged help system. I can however create hyperlinks to view local content using the following syntax (file:/C:\folderName\fileName.html - the only drawback for local preview is that you must right-click and select "open in new tab"). Essentially, I am trying to eliminate the requirement to have to right-click and open in new tab to view local html files.
    The project I am working on is deployed both locally and remotely and this whole process is necessary for emergency management and business continuity purposes.
    I hope my explanation isn't too convoluted and would be glad to clarify it further if required. I would appreciate any assistance!

    Hi John
    I appreciate you and Peter obtaining this  information from Adobe and I appreciate your continuing patience in  trying to understand what I am doing.
    I will start  from the beginning and hopefully clarify my process when deploying my  application locally (my remote process differs somewhat but is not  germane to this discussion). Obviously this will contain some repetition from previous posts but I hope it helps...
    The project itself integrates content created from Adobe RoboHelp with content created within Adobe Dreamweaver
    First, I should mention that I am using RoboHelp 8 as I don't believe I have addressed which version I am using. There's nothing particularly unusual about the project itself.
    Utilizing Dreamweaver I have created a self-contained HTML-only (no server-side functionality) website which is placed at the root level of the C: drive
    Within the RoboHelp project I create a hyperlink to access the local HTML files from the RoboHelp topic pages. The process I use to do so is from within the HTML view of the specific topic page and I use the following file path: "file:/C:\folderName\fileName.html". The only end-user requirement is that they must right-click and select "open in new tab", otherwise the link does not work. Please note, this is ONLY required for accessing the local HTML files.
    I output my RoboHelp project using the Adobe Air SSL, with the output type set to "Help Only Content" which creates the .rha files. I utilize multiple .rha files within my project as each .rha file constitutes a module specific to an individual municipality (in my particular instance)
    I use the Help Viewer Wizard from the RoboHelp "Toolbox" pod to create what I refer to as the "shell" .air file. Once the "shell" .air file created from the Help Viewer Wizard is  installed, it creates a shortcut on my desktop.
    I place an XML .helpcfg file within the directory on C:Program Files where my "shell" .air file has been installed to reference each .rha module which must be placed at the root level of the C: drive in order to be properly referenced by the .helpcfg file
    By double-clicking on the desktop shortcut created in Step 6 it opens the "shell" module which, in turn, loads in each individual .rha file which can be accessed individually from the drop-down menu in the top-right corner
    Why do I do it this way?? My organization severely restricts admin privileges on our workstations. We have one IT person / several hundred officers so I needed to create a system where the only time we need IT assistance is in the initial installation of the "shell" .air file created from the Help Viewer Wizard and placement of the .helpcfg file within the C: Programs folder. Once this is done, because the .rha files are on the C: drive, I can swap these out and update as necessary (we currently have an annual renewal cycle) and we require no further IT intervention. The local system I have just described has hyperlinks to the online browser-based help so that users can also access it and see any content updates made throughout the course of the school year
    Having said all that, based on the model I have just described, I have been trying to create iFrames from within my RoboHelp 8 topic pages (placed on my C: drive) to access the local HTML Dreamweaver site (also on my C: drive). The problem I have been having is that the resultant iFrames display only a blank white page and I have tried a number of variations on the syntax of the file path without success.
    The process I have been using to create the iFrame is as follows:
    In Design view, select Insert >> HTML >> iFrame
    In the iFrame dialog box, provide a name for the iFrame and then navigate to the local file on my C: drive level Dreamweaver HTML-only website that I want to link to.
    Click "Apply" and from the resulting dialog box states that "This action will create an external link to the help system... Do you want to continue?", I click "Yes"
    The resultant file path is "../../../../../folderName/fileName.html" which obviously won't work but I have created the iFrame and now I switch over to HTML view and insert the file path that I have been using for the hyperlinks ("file:/C:\folderName\fileName.html"). I also modify the width to 100% and the height to 1000 px
    The user is not being directed to a different domain. So, if as Adobe states, that iFrames are "supported in local AIR Help (.rha) as well" then I don't know why it will not work for me. Again, this is the file path that allows me to create a hyperlink which will access my local Dreamweaver HTML files: "file:/C:\folderName\fileName.html" so if that syntax works for a hyperlink, why will it not work for the iFrame?
    The videos I referenced are also contained within the local Dreamweaver HTML site
    My usage of the term "merged help" may have been unclear and hopefully steps 1-8 outline what I am doing
    Again, I am very grateful to all who have joined this discussion to try to help me! I think it should be manifestly evident by now that I am self-taught and basically that's the only excuse I can offer in my defense for my poor articulation. Not too many years ago I wanted nothing whatsoever to do with computers!

  • Can't view a website, issue related to mixed content blocking

    Hello,
    I am having trouble viewing the website below in Firefox. This is Basic Talk, which is basically internet phone service, similar to Vonage. But it's cheaper and sold at Walmart. Was wondering why I could pull up their website just fine on my cell phone, but couldn't get it up on Firefox (or IE for that manner). In order to set up my account with them, I had to do it completely online via my cell phone. But after doing some research I came across some info in the Firefox Bugzilla support forums. And it appears this issue is related to the "Mixed Content Blocking" issues. I've tried viewing the site via "http" and "https" and neither way works in Firefox. But again, via my cellphone, just fine. If you all could please look into this and provide me further details with how I can view and access this site. I would greatly appreciate it.
    https://www.basictalk.com
    Thanks
    Shirley

    Firefox 3 versions do not have mixed content blocking features, so if this happens with the 3.6.27 version that shows in the System Details List and also in other browsers like IE then something else is wrong.

  • Firefox is my default browser in my local system, i am getting junk data when i open the .html type of files as attachment but there is no issue when i open as inline

    Hi,
    could please help me of the folloing issue
    i have set up the firefox is default browser in my local system.
    issue with only .html type files not with .doc .... etc.
    my application requirement is to view the attached document if set Content-Disposition as "attachement" then open the dialog box with open or save radio options then if i select the open option data getting as junk data not the actual data.
    if set Content-Disposition as "inline"' then file open in same accessing browser with proper data.
    Note
    i am using following piece of code in my application
    response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=\""
    + fileName + "\"");
    actual my case is :
    some where in my application i copy/paste the data from ms-word
    then it saved as .html file after that when i want to see the data, then click on the attachment it opens dialog box, here i am selecting open option then it opens in my default browser "firefox" with junk data .
    please observe the following junk data,

    Hi 20fox12, this is most likely an IE problem. Firefox has no effect on any other installed applications. Unfortunately I have no idea what to do about your issue. I'd suggest a forum that is more tuned towards Windows issues.

  • Sporadic issues uploading large dynamic content blocks using REST API

    I have been using calls to endpoints like https://secure.eloqua.com/API/REST/1.0/assets/dynamicContent/157 (where "157" is a content block ID) to update existing dynamic content blocks. This has generally worked well for about a month and a half. Starting Saturday morning around Midnight, though, the majority of these calls started failing, with socket error "connection was forcibly closed by remote host".
    That's the .NET verbiage; at a lower level, this is socket error #10054. When using CURL, I get the result pictured below:
    This is sporadic; over the course of today, maybe 25% of these calls have succeeded and 75% have failed. The calls are mostly identical. At other times, we've gone days, maybe weeks without an issue, and I figured that the isolated failures of this sort that we did get related to scheduled downtime, loss of connectivity, and other transient conditions.
    The payload (PUT data) I'm sending up is ~450KB of JSON. It contains the top-level details about the block itself, plus all of the dynamic content / rules criteria, including the default.
    At first, I wondered if some sort of weird character (ampersand, less than / greater than...) had entered my data, flowed into the API call unescaped, and created a problem (e.g. invalid JSON). However, I did some troubleshooting, and the failure we're seeing does not seem to correlate with the absence or presence of any one content / rule item in particular. Rather, it seems to be volume related, i.e. I can send any one of the rules I want to create, or just a few, and that will succeed. But I cannot send all (or most) of the rules at once without experiencing failures most of the time (lately).
    So, if there were a way for me to split up the creation of the block over multiple API calls (one call to create the block, another to add the default content rule, yet another for the first non-default content rule, and so on), I think that would work. I find no indication on Topliners or in the Eloqua API documentation to indicate that this is possible, though.
    It has occurred to me that we are over some API call threshold. I know that some Eloqua installations have a per-day API call limit as low as 20,000. My question is, what do I see when I exceed the limit? Do I get the "forcibly closed" error, or another error perhaps, or is my activity simply throttled by the server? And is there somewhere in Eloqua that I can see where I stand with respect to this limit?
    Finally, I know we've done some things recently that have increased our overall processing load on the Eloqua servers. In particular, a larger number of contacts than previously have been flowing in from our CRM system. One theory I had was that we're allocated a certain amount of total processing power, and that if we overload this capacity complex API calls are subject to timing out. (My communications timeout is set to 10 minutes, and the error message comes up after about 2-3 minutes, but I don't know what kind of timeouts Oracle might have set up on their own equipment.) That being said, my code needs to basically wait indefinitely for this data, and certainly not give up after 2-3 minutes. If there's a way to indicate this fact to Oracle, I'd certainly like to know about that.
    Thank you all for reading and attempting to help!

    Hi James,
    As far as I have been told (by Support) is that the API Limit is a soft limit that is not currently enforced.
    I have seen other API endpoints failing from time to time (mostly on the BULK API) and have had to write logic to redo calls that fail. My failures seems to occur primarily due to server load and I can force them by making allot of exports at the same time.
    In regards to the Dynamic Content Rules I think that you might be able to make the rules one/two rules at the time. What I would test is to make a Dynamic Content with only the default content. Then loop through your rules and only have new rules in the Rules section of the Dynamic Content.
    One more thing. Try using the REST/2.0 endpoint.
