Moving cursor over any http pointer causes displayed pop ups to flicker on/off. started with v18.0

First noticed when I tried to save bookmarks. Started with Version 18 update.

  • HT1343 On my 4 1/2 year old Macbook I could select multiple files  by highlighting a file and then moving cursor over a file lower in the list, and pressing shift-control-click. I can't do that in now with Mac Pro.  What am I doing wrong?

    ghlighting a file and then moving cursor over a file lower in the list, and pressing shift-control-click. I can't do that in now with Mac Pro.  What am I doing wrong?

    Holding down the control key will invoke "right-click."
    Depending on the View, holding down Shift will with either toggle the selection (Icon View), or it will make a continuous selection from the previous selection (List View or Column View).
    The only way to make a continuous selection in Icon View is to drag out a selection marquee around or through the icons.
    I can't remember the behavior of previous OS's.

    QA: Yes
    Doc: No
    Checkintests: Pass
    Details: Checkin 272187 fixed small messages to work on NIO HTTP endpoints but this exposed a bug in HTTPChannel. HTTPChannel is not supposed to support small messaging feature but there was one place where small messages feature were still being enabled which caused the bug.

  • Display pop ups in the jsp by using Java script

    Hi
    can any body say ,how to display pop ups in the jsp by using Java script ?

    that's correct. You can use the below code for AJAX request.
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var httpObject = getHTTPObject();
    //create XMLHttpRequest object
    function getHTTPObject() {     
         var xmlhttp;
         if (window.XMLHttpRequest) // if Mozilla, Safari etc
              xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
         else if (window.ActiveXObject){ // if IE
              try {
                   xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
              catch ( e ){
                   try{
                        xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
                   catch ( e ){}
         return xmlhttp;
    //define the function to send the request
    function sendRequest(){
        var currDesc = document.getElementById("description").value;
        var URL =  "manageMaintAction.do"; //action mapping in your struts-config
        var queryString = "currDesc="+escape(currDesc); //get the currDesc value in your action class like request.getParameter("currDesc")
        httpObject.open( "Post", URL, true );
        httpObject.onreadystatechange = cbFn;
        httpObject.setRequestHeader( "Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
        httpObject.send(queryString);
    //callback fn
    function cbFn() {
        if (httpObject.readyState == 4)
             if (httpObject.status == 200)
              var result = httpObject.responseText;
              alert(result);
    </script>

  • Flash player causes repeated pop-ups impeding my computer use.

    I am frustrated with using flash player and its frequent upgrades which cause 3-4 pop-ups each time I click on a link. I would think you could engineer a more user friendly environment for a tool that many applications require. What's your excuse or suggestion?

    What kind of pop-ups?  I never get any pop-ups when using Flash Player.

  • On opening 2 browser Tabs are displayed doubling the infomation how can I start with only one browser Tab?

    each time I access firefox 2 tabs are created each with the same information. To retrieve the information I must manually close the second tab else the info will not display properly. I am wondering is there something I can do to stop this from happening? It happens with direct open or from a link and if allready on a web page and open another via link 2 more Tabs are created it can become very crowded and hard to know which was first tab created. I do hope you understand what is happening and hopefully there is a cure. Thanking you Graham Rice

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • When I scroll over content there seems to be "pop-ups" that come about. Why is this happening with FireFox and not I. E. ? How do I fix the problem?

    I'm using Firefox as my browser, the web content has content that is double underlined and when I scroll over it it pops an image up or some other sign up stuff. How do I prevent this from happening?

    Most likely caused by one of your extensions. If the above doesn't get rid of it, check here next:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
    Bear in mind that's it's probably not clearly labeled "annoying advertising" but may have an unrelated or innocent-sounding name. Disable everything that you do not use daily; if in doubt disable. Then use one of the links that appears above a disabled extension to restart Firefox and see whether that helps.

  • I don't know if this is a "crash," but Firefox is freezing, "not responding," very often over the past few days. What's the deal? Also, I am getting pop-ups recently, usually a game, associated with Firefox, and don't want them. How do I stop them?

    My details are in my question.

    Rename each file to end in .rtf, and then open TextEdit. Save three new documents to your desktop with the same name as each file the Finder reports as being in use, and then overwrite the existing documents. Throw away the TextEdit files.

  • My mouse disappears when moved over any text box?

    After downloading Mozilla Firefox, my mouse no longer appears when moved over text boxes, such as the box I am typing in now. Any ideas? Thanks.

    when your moving your arrow cursor over textbox its changes to Text cursor
    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    <b> To Enable SafeMode </b>
    *You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    *''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
    Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox"; Linux: "Firefox/File > Quit")

  • When I go up to "file-edit-view etc and I put cursor over it the word it's pointing to disappears. How can I make it stop. I need to see what I'm pointing at!!

    I'm using Windows XP and this issue just started this morning. For some reason my firefox crashed. I got everything fixed but now when I go the the top where it has "File Edit View History etc" and I put the cursor over it the word blanks out. It never used to do this and I can't work with it like this. I prefer Firefox over any other web browser. Please tell me how to change the settings so the word stays there when the cursor highlights it and doesn't disappear. Thank you.

    Did you already reboot the computer?

  • I keep losing entire events in iPhoto on my iMac.  Where an event was, there is a light gray event box displaying a dark gray palm tree and when I hover my cursor over the box, it shows 0 photos are there, where there were once photos.

    I keep losing entire events in iPhoto on my iMac.  Where an event was, there is a light gray event box displaying a dark gray palm tree and when I hover my cursor over the box, it shows 0 photos are there, where there were once photos.  I am operating a 27 inch iMac running OS X 10.9.4.  It has a 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5 processor, and its memory is 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3.  Is there any way to retrieve the lost photos?

    WHat version if iPhoto?  Where is your iPhoto library located?
    TRy
    BAckup your iPhoto library, depress and hold the option and command keys while launching iPhoto until the first aid window comes up and repair permissions and if necessary rebuild your database

  • Keyboard command mistake activates unwanted guides over image when moving cursor.

    inadvertently i have hit a keyboard command that has given me an unexpected result. When I pass the cursor over an image horizontal, vertical and 45 degree angle guides pop up over various parts of the image. Also paths, anchor points, intersects and alignments are defined in very small text that follows the cursor, especially the pen tool. All of these things flash on and off as I move the cursor around the image. I find this very distracting and want to turn off this feature but I don't know which key I hit to turn it on. Any thoughts?

    Cmd(Ctrl)-U is the toggle for Smart Guides.

  • Mouse cursor moving mask over another image.

    Hi, Is it possible to have where the Mouse cursor is on the page moving mask over another image. Imagine a black screen with a star cut out of the middle(where the cursor is) and u can see the image behind.
    Any examples on how to do this?
    Can it be done in html instead?

    Create the mask and the background as movieclips and then assign the mask as the mask property of the bacground movieclip... as in background.mask = msk (where msk is the instance name of the mask).
    Then assign a MOUSE_MOVE event listener to the mask and in the event handler for that listener have its x and y properties assigned to be the mouseX and mouseY properties
