Troubles with web.show_document and internet explorer

Hi folks, this is my problem
I generate a text file on forms and then I use this to open the document in a new window
web.show_document( nome_ver_, '_BLANK' );where nome_ver_ is a variable with the url
Using mozila firefox this run fines and a new window is open and everything goes right.
But in some machines with the internet explorer the new window appear and then close in milliseconds. I try different's versions of IE on the machine and still have the problem...
Anyone see this bug?
I try to disabled everything on secure on IE and still nothing...
Sorry for my bad english and thanks in advance
Luis

You are generating a text file you say. Is it a pure text file? Or is it html that you wnt the user to view in the browser?
In what versions of IE is this happening in?

Problem with ExternalInterface.call and Internet Explorer

Hi, I´m developing a site, (
www.gen-studio.com/avelart2
), and I´m using a swf to display a set of thumbs that when
clicked show an item and its description on the browser, those
items might be images or video, everything works fine with the
images.
And actually it works fine with the videos too, when using
Firefox, but when I test the page on Internet explorer it just
doesn’t work!
On principle let me describe how it´s supposed to work,
a thumbnail when clicked sends an id number to javaScript using
ExternalInterface.call(“myFunction”,myId); -I´m
using AS3 for the swf´s-
the javaScript file has already loaded (ever since$(
document).ready) a XML file which uses to match the id with a file
and the description, if the item to show it´s a video, then it
creates a variable which holds a string with the proper html to
embed a swf (a swf movie player that resides just next to the HTML
file), when loaded, the swf movie player uses
ExternalInterface.call() to ask for the source of the video that
has to play, and that function is as follows:
setVideo: function(){
alert("hola");
return comun.miVideo;
(The alert(“hola”); is just to test that the
function is being called), which it is, but it returns null as a
value instead of the proper string, and this happens only on
internet Explorer, but works correctly on Firefox.
I´ve been reading all day about the subject and found a
few interesting things, which though have made me narrow my
problem, they haven´t just provided me with a solution, what I
found so far:
-I must have in account flash security issues: Checked (my
actionScript follows:)
import fl.video.*;
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
flash.system.Security.allowDomain("*");
var vid:FLVPlayback = this.miPlayer;
vid.source =
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("comun.setVideo");
-ExternalInterface and Internet explorer don´t work
properly when tested locally: Checked (I have a server on my PC and
I´m testing the site as well in the above direction).
-The object tag holding the swf must have a proper id
attribute: Checked.
-It´s super important the way the object tag is formed:
Checked, and I also tested the tag separately (I put it directly in
the HTML instead of adding it via javaScript) and it worked as
expected in both Firefox and Internet Explorer, which leads me to
believe:
-I read somewhere that if you add the object tag by using
innerHTML or appendChild, returning values from javaScript to swf
won´t work, but I couldn´t find an explanation nor a
solution.
Well, as I said now I´ve been looking all day for an
answer, so I really hope you can help me or give me some advice on
the subject, thank you so much for your time!

Hi! it solved itself !! (nahh, I wish), but it indeed had a
solution, it was something quite simple, and I don´t really
understand why it was not working in the first place, but here is
the thing:
I´m learning jquery and this is the first proyect
I´m officially using it, so I was using
$('#myDIV').append("string"); to embed the swf, (and it was working
perfectly on Firefox), so since I had narrowed my problem to those
lines, I decided to try some good-old-fashioned-javaScript and
changed it for: var myDiv =
document.getElementById('thatParticularDiv'); myDiv.innerHTML =
('string'); and it worked both in Firefox and IE !!!!!! :)
I´m quite happy about it, and if someone knows
what´s the issue with my jquery approach I would love to hear
it. THANKS !!

Calling a report with web.show_document and put pdf in temp directory

Hi,
I need to call a report 10g with web.show_document in order to generate a .pfd file (not viewed by the user) as soon as the user press a button in a form.
I have two problems. Firstly, after generate .pdf, it's opened a undesirable windows "process succefully" (I don't want that window). Secondly, in url parameter, I put:
(...)DESTYPE=File&DESFORMAT=pdf&DESNAME=' || client_win_api.get_temp_directory
the target directory to .pdf file might be the user temporary directory, and not c:\temp, because in Windows XP the user haven't some writing privileges.
How there is spaces in temporary directory, like:
C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Configurations\Temp
I supose that Get_temp_directory returns something that:
C:\Documen~1\<user>\Local~1\Temp
And web.show_document don't understand.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks a lot,
medina.

Hi Maahjoor,
i have install windows xp on vmware having loop back adapter configure with ip 192.168.10.1.i am using oracle developer 10g suite and oracle 10g r2 database.
i want to call a report using the following code on a button.i have attached the report to the form.
i have started the report server by issuing rwserver server=repsrv.
DECLARE
repid REPORT_OBJECT;
v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
rep_status varchar2(20);
BEGIN
repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('ALL_EXPENSES');
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
rep_status := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(v_rep);
WHILE rep_status IN ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED')
LOOP
rep_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(v_rep);
END LOOP;
IF rep_status = 'FINISHED' THEN
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://192.168.10.1:8889/reports/rwservlet'||substr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1||'?'||'server=repsrv','_blank');
ELSE
Message('Error when running report');
END IF;
end;now when i run the command, i get this error
frm-41214: unable to run the report
frm-41219: cannot find the report.invalid id.
argument 1 to builtin run_report_object acnnot be null.
i thin the problem is with this line. WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://192.168.10.1:8889/reports/rwservlet'||substr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1||'?'||'server=repsrv','_blank');
can anyone help? or a better piece of code?>
I think you are mixing up the web.show_document usage for URL and with RUN_REPORT_OBJECT.
I hope you have studied this document http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/products/migration/frm10gsrw10g-132606.pdf . It has the required examples and code.
Cheers,

R12 Web ADI and Internet Explorer 7

Hi,
We have recently upgraded from 11.5.10.2 to R12.1.1
We are using Web ADI now, instead of Client ADI.
We had to stay on Internet Explorer 6 while on 11.5.10.2 due to needing Jinitiator.
Now we're on R12, and using Java, we would like to move up to Internet Explorer 7.
However, I can't find any official documentation / certification to say that Web ADI will work with IE7.
Testing seems to show that it works with IE7, but I'd like to find something official from Oracle to show to my desktop colleagues.
Does anyone know of anything like that? I've looked on My Oracle Support but cant' find anything.
Any advice much appreciated.
Thanks

Please see the docs referenced in these threads.
Web ADI is not certified for IE7 and Windows XP...Supportable?

Problem with af:showPrintablePageBehavior and Internet Explorer

Hi, I am using JDeveloper 11.1.2.1.0.
I have a table with the iterators Range size = -1 and the tables AutoHeightRows and FetchSize set to estimatedRowCount.
I have added a commandButton with af:showPrintablePageBehavior to the page.
The table I am printing generates 4 pages in Firefox, Chrome and Safari. In Internet Explorer 8 and 9 I only get 1 page. (The metadata on the page also say page 1 of 1. )
Unfortunately we have some customers that use Internet Explorer, so how do I make this work for them?
All data is viewed at the printable page in IE, but when printed there is only 1 page.
Regards,
Thomas H.

Hi,
not sure this is an issue with the showPrintablePageBehavior if IE shows all data in the browser after using this behavior. The print functionality is owned by the browser and obviously it doesn't get to all of the page content (which I think is out of the ADF Faces scope). You may try and file a Service Request with customer support for them to have a look. However, if the showPrintablePageBehavior properly displays the data, then I am not sure what we can do to make the browser native print functionality working

/* ~~ These are the columns for the layout. ~~
1) Padding is only placed on the top and/or bottom of the divs. The elements within these divs have padding on their sides. This saves you from any "box model math". Keep in mind, if you add any side padding or border to the div itself, it will be added to the width you define to create the *total* width. You may also choose to remove the padding on the element in the div and place a second div within it with no width and the padding necessary for your design.
2) No margin has been given to the columns since they are all floated. If you must add margin, avoid placing it on the side you're floating toward (for example: a right margin on a div set to float right). Many times, padding can be used instead. For divs where this rule must be broken, you should add a "display:inline" declaration to the div's rule to tame a bug where some versions of Internet Explorer double the margin.
3) Since classes can be used multiple times in a document (and an element can also have multiple classes applied), the columns have been assigned class names instead of IDs. For example, two sidebar divs could be stacked if necessary. These can very easily be changed to IDs if that's your preference, as long as you'll only be using them once per document.
4) If you prefer your nav on the right instead of the left, simply float these columns the opposite direction (all right instead of all left) and they'll render in reverse order. There's no need to move the divs around in the HTML source.

You have missed a closing </p> tag
These input elements need closing like this
<input name="allcountry" value="ALLROMANIA" type="hidden" />

Problem with WIndows 7 and Internet Explorer 11

I have Windows 7 Pro and just completed installing Service Pack 1. I checked the the System information and it indicates that the Service Pack did in fact install. I am now trying to install the latest version of Windows Explorer 11 and when
I try, I get a message that states "Operating System is not Supported" "you need Windows 7 SP1 or Server 2008 R2 SP1 to install Internet Explorer 11.
I have worked on this problem for about six hours. Reinstalled Service Pack 1 and anything else I can think of. I can't get Internet Explorer 11 to install. I use GMail and it is advising me that I need to upgrade to the lates version
Internet Explorer.
Can anyone give me some advice?

Which version of Internet Explorer are you currently running? And how are you trying to install IE 11?
Although there are standalone installers for IE, it's usually best if you can install it through Windows Update. From memory I think IE 11 can only be installed on top of IE 9 or 10.
Please can you open Windows Update, and click Check for updates. Once this has finished checking, look in both Important and Optional updates, and see if an updated version of IE appears.

Problem with hidden items and Internet Explorer

Hello,
I have discovered a very strange behavior of my Page in which are a few hidden items!
In a region six hidden items produces an empty row! But this empty row is only be displayed in Internet Explorer! In Firefox everything looks fine!
Does anybody have done the same experiences about that?
Is there a solution for this problem?
Regards,
Tim

Tim,
I have discovered a very strange behavior of my Page
in which are a few hidden items!
In a region six hidden items produces an empty row!An empty row where? In a report? In a form?
But this empty row is only be displayed in Internet
Explorer! In Firefox everything looks fine!Although hidden items are 'hidden' they're still part of the HTML and consume space within the HTML source of the page. Is ApEx just putting these items inside a td tag that shows up in the browser? Maybe you could post an example on apex.oracle.com.

Remote Web Workplace and Internet Explorer 11

After updating my IE to version 11on my home computer (WIN7), I cannot access the RWW on my business server. I reach the login screen and log in. The RWW home screens displays briefly, then disappears behind an error screen: 404- File
or directory not found. I am able to reach the home screen using other browsers (Chrome and Firefox) but in order to log on to the server or a workstation, I have to download and save <computername.rdp> and then execute it. What causes this
problem in IE 11 and how do I work around it other than using another browser?

Hi Jerry,
Does it work when you turn compatibility mode on for the web address you're trying to visit?

Problem with ACE and Internet Explorer 8

I have a problem with ACE (system A2(1.1)) and Internet Explorer 8.
exactly:
ACE is configured as end-to-end ssl with 2 rserver and with the sticky source address. When user is opening the virtual address from IEv7, the web portal (On Microsoft IIS) works fine.
If user opens the same web portal but using IEv8, the session is suspended after 60 seconds.
I think, that the reason is http keep-allive, which is sending every 60 seconds from the user's internet browser.
Here is some information about this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_persistent_connection
Do you have any idea how to resolve this problem: upgrade ACE, change the configuration on IIS or ACE ??
Please help.

Hi Kazik,
Using a persistent connection or HTTP keepalives should not have any negative effect on the ACE, so, giving you a straight-forward answer to fix it is not going to be easy.
I would recommend you to open a TAC case to have this investigated further. When you do, please, provide the following data:
A showtech from the Admin context of the ACE
A traffic capture taken on the TenGig interface connecting the switch with the ACE backplane while doing a test connection (preferably one with IE7 and one with IE8 to compare)
If possible, a copy of the SSL private key. Being able to decrypt the traffic capture to look inside the HTTP flow would really make troubleshooting much easier.

Daniel

Domain redirect and Internet Explorer behavior with cookies

Hi team,
I'd like to ask if the following behavior is "normal" or if there are some possible or better workarounds.
1. My application uses HTMLDB internal authentication (via login page). Session management therefore is based on cookies.
2. I registered a domain and asked the domain provider to redirect the connections to the site where my htmldb application is hosted.
3. Firefox browser users connect apparently seamlessly to the web site, while Internet Explorer users need to tamper with the security settings and add both the domain and the hosting server address to the "Trusted" site list, also disabling the HTTPS only restriction for this kind of sites, because the cookies seem to be blocked by default.
I didn't fully understand if the problem with the cookies is related to the domain redirection but I am guessing it is as I never had this problem before when connecting directly to the hosted site.
Hence my question:
what is the recommended setup in a similar case, is my situation typical to some extent or is there something that needs to be done at either side to avoid these issues?
Bye,
Flavio

Problem with web.show_document with Jinitiator and Firefox

Not sure Firefox 2.0 is officially certified with Forms 9.0.4.1 and Jinitiatorbut regardless we have some users who want to use this combination. Everything seems to work fine except for the calls to web.show_document which opens a new browser window and displays some html etc.
The problem is that even though the client Forms JVM is Jinitiator (1.3.1.18 or .21) when the call to web.show_document occurs somehow the Sun Java Plugin starts and having the two JVM's at once causes a fatal crash in Firefox. Can anyone suggest a way to preven the second JVM from opening?
When the user uses the Sun Plug as the client Forms JVM there is no problem as the second JVM does not open. Unfortunately some users insist on Jinitiator with Firefox hence the problem. -quinn

James,
This whole applet embedded in a browser model for webforms is driving us batty at times. The list of problems includes:
1) Users are constantly tempted by browser controls and accidentally do all sorts of things to get them in trouble. This has included but not limited to using the navigation arrows, jumping off to read their email in the same window as the form and returning to a dead forms session, minimizing, resizing, blurring off to another window and then returning back by clicking on the title bar of the browser and wondering why the form doesn't tab etc.
Sure hobbling the browser by opening with limited functionality is a possibility but not a complete solution.
2) New versions of browsers seem to break something. Both IE 7 and Firefox 2 have their own problems with web.show_document, especially file associations such as CSV and DBF and trying to open things in Excel in IE7.Firefox seems to have less problems for some yet some some oddities like the one that started this thread (and 2.0 opening new windows in tabs by default instead of windows).
3) JVM jigsaw puzzle. Is it Jinit or Sun, which versions? Which combinations of browser version and JVM works.
4) General fragility of the whole architecture. Running a client JVM in a web browser on top of a PC Operating system connectiong to a forms server over a network embedded in a Java Container server on a full blown web server running on a unix operating system is pushing the bubble. Throw in the mix that any of these components can be combined in numerous ways makes one wonder how it works as well as it does.
Still users randomly getting dropped connections to forms server (network gltches?). General sluggishness (poorly written forms?). Periods of users with unduplicatable errors primarily network related it would appear.
General feel that it is not rock solid stable. Perusing metalink documents on performance and tuning gives too much and too general info to troubleshoot so just shrug shoulders and say 'network problem'.
What's the solution? Java webstart would seem to help at least with the browser realted issues but is that supported and documented how to use yet. Also we'd lose web_show_document which is critical (could it be replaced by webutil calls to open browser?).

A problem with this webpage caused Internet Explorer (IE9) to close and reopen the tab

I have IE9 (using 32-bit version) installed on a relatively new laptop with Windows 7 64-bit. Up until last weekend IE9 worked fine and Flash Player worked fine too.
At the weekend a webpage asked for Flash Player to be updated - which I did. Ever since then whenever I go to a webpage needing Flash Player I get the message "A problem with this webpage caused Internet Explorer to close and reopen the tab". This happens twice and then an IE9 error page.
I have read the discussions in here about the problems with Flash Player 10.3 and have tried the various solutions. I have updated to 10.3.181.16 having tried 15 and 14 previously. Same problem.
I have reset IE9. Same problem.
I have disabled all add-ons which stops the problem. If I enable just the Flash Player add-on then the problem recurs. Since there are so many webpages that use Flash I do not want to run my browser without this add-on running.
If I enable the add-on and run IE9 using software rendering instead of GPU rendering then I don't get the problem. However, this isn't exactly making the best use of the resources on my laptop.
This may well all be related to the 10.3 problems but no one seems to have mentioned having a problem with tabs closing and reopening so I thought I would post on here to check.
Any suggestions for how to solve this (other than using software rendering)?

Thanks again for your reply. I appreciate the time you have taken to respond.
I think, however, you misunderstand the problem. IE9 does not reopen the tabs on just one website - it is doing this on every website that needs Flash Player. Therefore, running in Compatibility mode is not an option. In fact, because IE9 reopens the tabs so quickly and then ends up with an error page, I cannot even click the Compatibility button anyway.
I could use ActiveX filtering - true. All that this means is that Flash does not play on any of the websites. When I want to re-enable ActiveX for a particular website where I need to see the Flash Player item, this just triggers the error.
This problem also happened on .14, .15 and well as the current .16 version. It did not happen with the previous version of Flash Player that I had on the system (version 10.2 I think).
The fact is that either Flash Player or IE9 or both is/are broken. The two choices I am still left with are:
1. Use software rendering (which contradicts the latest advertisements for IE9 about unleashing the power of IE)
2. Use another browser - I have no problems with either Firefox or Chrome
