HTML5 Output to Web Browser view
The middle image displays a play button I have to press before previewing my HTML5 output page. Is this what my users have to do each time they view my page created in Captivate? or is this just the view in the Preview mode while I'm working on the project?
If this is set by default, how can I turn it off when I publish it to HTML?
Please advise.
Thank you!

Report not producing output in web browser
Hi, I am currently in the process of setting up a development machine with weblogic, forms & reports. I have installed a default install of the products and forms is working a treat but i am having a bit of a mare with reports. I have set the reports_path in the registry, opened and compiled a report and passed it through to the run paper layout option and done a print preview and the report works fine.
My problem is when I select the run web layout option, in that nothing is generated ie no output in the browser. When the created output file is check in the WLS_REPORTS\tmp\_WL_user\reports_11.1.1.2.0\uqanoi\war classic home the file has not content.
I have converted the rdf file to a jsp file and both are in the reports_path
What am I missing??Hello,
Since Reports 9.0.2 , there are 2 layouts :
- The Paper layout
- The Web layout
Paper Layout is identical to the Layout in previous versions (.. , 2.5 ,6.0 6i)
The Web Layout must be created if you want to see something when executing the run web layout option.

I recently upgraded from a Blackberry 8330 to a 9330. The web browser on the 9330 typically shows most pages in incredibly small, unreadable font. There is a zoom feature which allows me to increase the font size, but then the page is so large that I need to use the horizontal scroll to read everything on the page.
Are there some settings I can change to allow the pages to appear correctly?

Report Output in a web browser. URGENT!!!
Email: [email protected]
I would appreciate if someone can solve my problem....
When I run a report from the report builder, the output is displayed in the web browser as when in live previwer, In view menu, web preview, Generate to Web browser in checked.
I want to have a shortcut to this report on my desktop. I want that whenever I click this short cut, my report should run in the default internet browser but it is not executing.
I have also tried to run this report by making a button in a Form and using run_product on the when-button-pressed trigger but this is also not working.
I want an output in the web browser 'cuz the output contain some hyperlinks pointing to some word documents saved as html.
Awaiting an urgent reply.....
HASAN.Hello Hassan,
try it with an Batch File
c:\orant\bin\rwrun60.exe userid=scott/tiger@oracledb module=c:\test1.rep
before you compile the report to an rep-file you have to do some settings in the systemparameters "atributepallete" under your module.
1. set the parameter Desformat under value* on "htmlcss"
2. set the parameter Desname under value* on "c:\test1.html" or the "wwwroot" directory.
3. set the parameter Destype under value* on "file"
then compile the report to c:\test1.rep an test the batch file you've created.
much luck
Udo
* dont know the correct spelling in the englishversion of the RB6i, but its allways the 2. desc row in the atrribute pallet -

None has solved the problem. However it still works ok with IE. But I want to stick with Chrome because I find IE is so slow!
I am using Vista, with Adobe Acrobat standard 9.5.2 and Google Chrome version 23.0.1271.64 m which is marked on Chrome as 'up to date'
Does anyone know why I might be getting this error on Chrome but not IE?I think I have discovered the answer to my own question!
I have disabled Adobe Reader plug-in, and can now see PDFs in Chrome.
(Steps: Chrome Menu, Settings option, Click Advanced Settings link, then Content Settings button, then select Disable Individual Plug-Ins, and a list of plug-ins is offered to enable or disable).
I then get a different result depending on whether or not Chrome PDF viewer is enabled - with it enabled I see the PDF document in Chrome, or with it disabled then the option is offered to download it, but either way I can get it it via Chrome without having to run Internet explorer in another browser window. -
Reader 9.2 - "can not be used to view PDF files in a web browser"
Hello,
I recently deployed Adobe 9.2 within our organization. I used the Adobe Customization Wizard 9 to transform the install set, and selected the "Display PDF in Browser" option as default.
When opening a PDF linked from a web URL, we get the message: "The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser. Adobe Acrobat/Reader version 8 or 9 is required. Please exit and try again." This occurs under IE8 and IE6, in both Windows XP SP2 and Windows 7.
If I launch Adobe Reader and unselect "Display PDF in Browser" in preferences, PDFs open normally.I think I have discovered the answer to my own question!

This is the issue but I'm not sure there is a resolution:
Firefox: Version 3.5.1
Adobe: Version 9.1.3
When navigating the web, click a URL that opens a PDF inside the browser and you get an error * "The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is
running can not be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser". Please exit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and exit your Web Browser and try again". I did read a post that doing a "repair" from the Adobe Reader application should fix this, they also reference a few registry keys to check becuase the post states it's lost the application path to Adobe version X. I don't necessarily buy that "fix" and here are my details below.
In FireFox if you navigate to Tools > Options > Applications > Adobe Acrobat Document
You're given choices:
Always ask: DOES NOT WORK, produces afore mentioned error *
Save File: Works, saves the file to a directory on your PC
Use Adobe Reader 9.1 (defau...: Works, opens your PDF's outside of your web browser
Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox): DOES NOT WORK, produces afore mentioned error *
Use other...:
IE seems to just work as expected.
If you open Adobe Reader > Edit > Preferences > Internet > Check "Display PDF in browser" - DOES NOT WORK, produces afore mentioned error *
This would seem to be an Adobe error rather than a FireFox web browser problems since FireFox does seem to know the correct path although I suppose you can't rule out that this is a FireFox problem since 2 out of the 4 PDF open options DON'T WORK.
Any thoughts on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Other information:
Adobe 8.1.5 works perfectly with FF 3.5.1+ when opening PDF's in the web browser, we also had no problems with previous versions either.
MSI push via Active Directory from Adobe 8.1.5 upgrade to Licensed Distribution I signed up for, Adobe 9.1.3 which was upgraded from 9.1.0, to 9.1.2, to 9.1.3 via an MSP patch.
Operating system: Windows XP SP 2, plenty of RAM, plenty of Drive
IE version this works with the new version of Adobe 9.1.3 is version 7 (7.0.5730.13)
Our FireFox MSI's come from Front Motions website and as far as I know we've never had problems with their MSI's, also tried the new release of FF 3.5.2 from their website.
I think that about covers it. Anyone else experiencing the same problems or have a patch?After troublshooting this for the entire day today the issue seems to be a MIME problem.
If everything is woking perfectly, in Tools > Options > Applications...
You should see 4 or more things related to Adobe like "Adobe Acrobat Forms Document", etc. If you don't see at least 4 MIME entries either your Adobe installation is hosed or your FF installation is hosed. I haven't figured out which is causing the issue.
What I did was remaster my patches from my original Adobe 9.1.0 MSI with the two updates via the command line in the directories with the source files. On the 9.1.0 original file I first remastered my MST transform with the Adobe MST utility. I then applied my patches.
msiexec /a AcroRead.msi /p AdbeRdrUpd912_all_incr.msp
msiexec /a AcroRead.msi /p AdbeRdrUpd913_all_incr.msp
I then uploaded that to my network share, unlinked my group policy, made a new group policy, added a batch file to delete adobe.com from program file and the desktop on system startup even though my MST was supposed to take care of that - it's not a perfect world is it? :-)
I then reapplied my GPO's for both FireFox 3.5.2 and Adobe 9.1.3, I checked to make sure the MIME extensions were there and they were. You might have to go into your Adobe Preferences and select that open in browser setting depending on what happens or adjust your MIME settings in FireFox's options but it should work.
That's what worked for me. It's possible a few other things I did along the way tweaked it out, in my group policy on the first run I did select to upgrade previous group policies, for the remaster and repush I didn't select any previous GPO's to upgrade.
It's hard to tell what one thing tweaked it out or what combination of things tweaked out the install. I did also reinstall Adobe 8.1.5 and FF 3.0.10 before doing all this since our machines currently have that setup, I'm not sure if that affected it either, it's just hard to tell but I don't think it did simply because I had done that several times in troubleshooting this issue.
If anyone else has more specifics that would be great! -

Newb: cannot view PDF files in Web Browser
I have a new Windows 7 computer & have installed Acrobat Standard 9.3.2 and Reader 9.3.1.
Whenever I attempt to "download" (i.e. view) a PDF in IE browser (or Firefox 3.6), I get the following error message:
"The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser.
Adobe Acrobat/Reader version 8 or 9 is required. Please exit and try again."
The error remains the same regardless of whether Acrobat or Reader is running/not running prior to download attempt. My work-around solution is to save the file to disk, & then open it. This is a pain & should not be necessary.
Any advice that anyone can give me to correct this problem will be received with great thanks!
FastKickThanks for your prompt & accurate response, John!
With hindsight, I realise that I downloaded Reader when another install program told me that I needed it.
It would have helped me if the Acrobat install program had warned me in big colored type, not to install Reader...
I am happy now....

Cannot view PDF files in a Web Browser
When I click on a link in IE 7 it's supposed to open a PDF page but I keep getting error message:
"The adobe acrobat/reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a web browser. Adobe Acrobat/Reader version 8 or 9 is required. Please exit and try again"
However, I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro installed on my machine, so I think it should work. After all, it's the pro version. Do I need to download/install Adobe Reader 8 or 9? If so, why, since I've already got Pro 9 installed.
What can I do to get passed this? This task is part of an online course I'm taking per work requirements.
thx,
JohnUnder help there is an option for repairing an installation. You should give that a try.

Visual Studio 2013. Viewing a PDF file via the Web Browser control in Windows 8.1
I am writing a Windows Forms application in which I need to view PDF files via the Web Browser control. When the control is given the Navigate() command, Windows takes over and asks which program I want to open the file with. All was fine with VS 2010 and
XP. I have un-installed "PDF Complete", which was the default PDF viewer, but I now get asked for an alternative.
Thanks in advance.
Mike SaundersHi Mike,
It seems that we could use Internet Explorer to open a local .PDF file if it has the Adobe Reader. I doubt that the web control would be related to it. Like the MVP's suggset in the following thread, maybe it would be related
to certain plug-in tools in your side like the adober reader.

I get the error "Cannot use adobe reader to view pdf in your web browser. Reader will now exit. Please exit your browser and try again" in Windows 7 x32 and Windows 7 x64 with Acrobat pro 8.1.7. This happens when trying to open a PDF file in Internet explorer 8.0.760 or when I open a PDF in Quickbooks 2008. If I answer ok or cancel the file opens normally. If I open acrobat 8 first then the pdf files open as expected. I also tried a copy of Acrobat reader with no difference in the outcome. Since this happens on two different computers one fresh copy of windows 7 x64 the other an upgrade to windows 7 x32 and they used to work before the change to windows 7, I assume there is some kind of incompatibility with windows 7 and acrobat. Is this a known issue and will it be fixed in an update to acrobat in the near future?
tvandersluijs - I'm sorry if that screwed up your machine however:
1. What version of Adobe Reader are you using because as you can see the registry entry is for Adobe Reader 9, if ur using Adobe Reader 8 then u need to specify ur version as PAllens entry suggested - "E.g. "C:\Program files\Adobe\Acrobat [version]\Reader\AcroRd32.exe""
2. I've used this solution significantly because I have come across this specific issue for multiple users.
3. All the registry entry does is tell Windows what program to use by default to open/view PDF documents.
My intention wasn't to screw up ur machine or anybody elses as I said I've used this solution many times however what I've should gave is the disclaimer to backup ur registry before u make mods so u can revert back in case. Also the ony other thing I can think of is that this solution was for Windows XP using registry editior 5, I'm noticing that the title of this thread is Windows 7.
