Internet Explorer 4.72 and applet menu

Hi!
I've got an applet that displays a menu that redirects to other URLs when selecting a menu item. The applet only uses AWT and Menu, MenuItem and PopupMenu are used to create the menu. My problem is that together with some other sites this menu stop working, i.e. nothing happens when you select a menu item. The problem only occurs with IE 4.72, later versions of IE works fine! I have not found anything that is common within the sites that my applet won't work with...

There are quite a lot of defects in the JVM in IE4. Sadly, when your customers upgrade their browser that won't upgrae their JVM - you need to advise them to upgrade their JVM separately.
It's probably best to wait a couple of weeks before acting, becuase of this announcement: http://java.sun.com/features/2001/08/choiceletter.html?frontpage-headlinesfeatures
Right now, if you code your pages to use JRE1.3 then all the users, inclugding those without the problem, will have to do a download.
Alternatively you can direct them to http://www.microsoft.com/java/vm/dl_vm40.htm to get the current Microsoft JVM. (It's java1.1.4 and the download is jsut as big as the JRE1.3)
It's also possible to code an OBJECT tag to force the download of the current Microsoft JVM for users who don't have it. But Micros sof thas moved or taken down the page, so I can't give you thei link.

    How do I access websites that warn: "Firefox is NOT compatible with this application. For best performance, please use Internet Explorer 5.0 and above...."? When I try to download any alternate browser, all I get is another warning that the alternate is "not compatible with your operating system." Is Firefox preventing this?

    There should be a User Agent Switcher menu item under Tools, which gives you the browser names you can impersonate.
    The menu item name changes to the browser UA you are presently using.
    There is also a User Agent Switcher button, you can add it using View -> Toolbars -> Customize, and dragging the button to your toolbar.
    See http://chrispederick.com/work/user-agent-switcher/features/ and http://chrispederick.com/work/user-agent-switcher/help/
    You can just start trying IE versions (or the versions it says on the site) until it lets you in.

  • Designer 6.0, OAS 4.0.8, Internet Explorer 5.5 and cookies

    Hello all,
    We are using Designer 6.0 to generate a Web Pl/Sql
    application. The application is called from an asp page on an
    Microsoft IIS server where certain cookies with information on
    the user is set e.g. user's uid, user's role, etc.
    The application was developed and tested on Internet Explorer
    v5.0 - the cookies were read fine in the application. Our client
    has now upgraded to Internet Explorer v5.5 and we're losing the
    cookie values. The cookie is set when you first come into the
    application, but as soon as you start navigating around, the
    cookie value is lost which is reaking havoc in our application
    since I need to read the information in the cookies.
    Has anyone used OAS 4.0.8, IE 5.5 and Designer 6.0 web
    generated Pl/sql modules? Database is 8.1.7. Has anyone had
    similar problems and found any solutions?
    Any and all help would be most appreciated, thanks!!!

    Ganesh,
    The port that I use to create a new listener is not being used by another process. After creating the new listener the wrb.log is empty and the new listener doesn't have a .err log. The NT event log message is :
    'The description for Event ID (0) in Source (Oracle Web Listener Administrator) could not be found. It contains the ff. insertion string(s): Unable to open service, due to system error 1060.'
    Roncab
    <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Ganesh Kumar ([email protected]):
    Just to double check, Did you check the port number of that newly created Listener? Because if that port is already in use, the HTTP listener will not start. Did you check the log file wrb.log? and also check the error
    (.err) file of the new listener that you can find under the directory
    'OAS_HOME'\ows\admin\'sitename'\'listener_name'
    Please check these files for futher details.

    Hi, working on a similar project with Oracle 8.0.5. database server and OAS4.0.8.1 JServlet Cartridge. Do not have answers to your questions, but have some more.
    1) oracle.html package:
    a) How can I add events like onChange, onClick etc. to Items?
    b) Font and TableRow class do not provide closing tags. Is it a bug? Any workarounds?
    2) Cannot store objects like connection pools, etc. in servletcontext as when I try to get them in another servlets, it gives ClassCastException. However, if I get them in an Object reference and display Classname, it does display the proper class name.
    getServlet also does not work so that I can share a global object with all servlets. Is it a but in OAS.
    Any other way by which I can share global objects across servlets.
    3) If I put a class in a CLASSPATH directory of the OAS application, and if that directory is not a virtually mapped directory, it is unable to locate my classes. Wonder how it is able to locate the oracle.html libraries which I access in the same way.

    You can probably alter your Internet Explorer browser settings by going to the menu <tools><internet options><security> and change one or more of the settings. Be careful about decreasing your security too much. Also, dont expect end-users to lower thier security settings to run your code.

  • Strange image-cacheing in Internet-Explorer with Java1.5-Applet

    I have written a Java-Applet for showing image-slideshows.
    In short words, the applet loads an image, scales it to screen-size,
    and loads the next image when one clicks on the applet.
    The applet causes a problem in MS Internet Explorer. The memory allocated by an image is never freed. After about 30-40 images, more tham 100MB are allocated by the JVM and the JVW crashes throwing an OutOfMemoryError.
    The same Applet runs fine on Netscape and Mozilla. Here, the memory allocated is always between 8 and 25 MB, even after sliding through hundreds of images.
    Some more coordinates:
    The applet is written in Java1.5 source code. My test-system is a P4 with Windows XP SP2. I have tried out Sun's JVM 1.5.0_03 and BEA's JVM JRockit 1.5.0_02 as browser-plugins, both cause the same problem in MS-IE6.
    I have tried to replace Applet.getImage() by com.sun.image.codec.jpeg.JPEGCodec.decodeAsBufferedImage() - same results.
    I have tried to flush any loaded images explicitely in the Applet.stop()-method, but no effort.
    The images are definitely not stored in some static containers inside my applet. The problem occurs on the level of the JVM/browser-constellation.
    Now my question: Is there any trick to affect the cacheing-mechanisms of the JVM? Image.flush() does not solve the problem.
    Is this a Java1.5 bug? Or a MS-IE bug?
    Is there anything that I did not consider?
    Thanks in advance

  • Internet Explorer 11.x and Flash Player problem

    Hi
    I installed and activated Windows 8.1 Update Enterprise 64-bit.
    Its Internet Explorer 11.x is 32-bit or 64-bit because I noticed that this Windows has already integrated Flash Player 32-bit?
    Also, I noticed that if I open the Flash Player applet into an Administators account and if I open its Advanced tab, the update options are disabled. How come?

  • I switched from Internet Explorer to Firefox and was so happy. Then I took the prompt and converted to Firefox 4.0 and now my computer is so slow it is almost unbearable. How do I switch back to Firefox 3 or some earlier version to get my speed back?

    It takes a long time for the computer to warm up and start working, maybe 30 seconds. Just to open an email can take 10 seconds. This is the kind of delay I was experiencing on Internet Explorer before I switched to Firefox 3. It is particularly slow if I am opening a photo attachment. It also can be slow just moving from one tab to another. Help!

    Credit Tony E:
    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data. See https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+Firefox
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use
    your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of
    installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.

  • Internet Explorer 7.0 and Firefox

    We're building webhelp files with RoboHTML 5. These files
    only seem to work on Internet Explorer. The links do not work right
    in Firefox. Anyone else having this problem and know how to fix?
    Also, did I read somewhere that Robohelp is not compatible
    with IE 7.0 or did I imagine that?

    I produce web help in Robohelp X5.0.2, and have found one or
    two minor issues with Firerfox and Opare, but current versions of
    Firefox (2.0.0.4) and Opera (9.21) seem to be working much better
    than earlier versions. I have no problems with Firefox. In Opera, I
    now have just one small problem - that it doesn't handle DHTML
    effects such cross-fading images in slideshows (you just get a
    simple flick from one image to the next one).
    I have had no problems using Robohelp X5.0.2 with IE7.
    I have tried Apple Safari on Windows XP, but that really
    doesn't like web help at all. The topics appear but the navigation
    and search panes are always blank. That's with java suport etc
    enabled in the browser.

  • Internet Explorer 7 (IE) and Password Sites Don't Work

    Presently, I have determined that passworded site created with iWeb '08 (2.0.4) don't work correctly with Internet Explorer 7 (IE). It should be noted the the site is a album page with multiple albums.
    The password process fails in that it repeatedly asks for the username and password pair. If you repeatedly provided the information, the site can load, but this does not work always.
    On a PC, Internet Explorer 6 (IE) does not have this problem.
    On a PC, Firefox and Safari don't have this problem.
    On a Mac, Opera (9.23) was this problem, too.

    Thanks for the post.
    I have been familiar with general flakiness of passwords or iWeb for the that matter.
    The "Publish All" is the best fix for most iWeb problems.
    I think the real issue is the design of MobileMe and java scripting associated iWeb and MobileMe. The password method looks like Realm passwords to the browser, but the site is presenting itself as a different Realm for each page/album/file on a site with password requirement.
    It trying to make everything work just so, which means one bump in the road can upset everything.
    The "Publish All" is a killer for large sites (mine is about 1GB or more). Not working with IE 7.0 is a killer. You can't ask friends and associates to use a different browser.
    I think an even bigger problem is the time it take Apple to respond to this kind of issue.

    Hey @lori1234 ,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand you're having issues with Internet Explorer on your HP 2000 notebook.
    It would help to know exactly which model you have as some 2000 series notebooks are commercial products and aren't my area of expertise. It would be hard to give exact information and the appropriate experts would be on our commercial forums. For information on finding your product and model numbers click here: How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
    If you could provide some more info about what isn't working that would be awesome. Is it that IE will not open at all or crashes on startup? Does it open but you are unable to browse? If you cannot browse do you get error messages? Does it only crash on certain sites, viewing certain content, or performing certain tasks? The more information the better.
    I would suggest starting with this guide while we await each others responses: What to do when Internet Explorer isn't working.
    Let me know if that document helps or the updated information.
    Please click the "Kudos, Thumbs Up" at the bottom of this post if you want to say "Thanks" for helping!
    Please click "Accept as Solution" if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others find the solution.
