Web-page java/javascript problems

I am having trouble with my java installation. Some work related web pages do not operate as they should, so I started looking into my java version. I first downloaded the latest java updater from Apple "Java 2Platform Standard Edition (J2SE) 5.0 Release 4 (PPC)" from "http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/j2se50release4ppc.html". I installed that and restarted. If I open a terminal window and enter "java -version", I get the following:
java version "1.5.0_06"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_06-112)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_06-64, mixed mode, sharing)
So it looks like I have the latest version that Apple offers and the OS knows about it.
But when I go to Java.com (http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml) and try to test my java using Safari or Camino, I get the following:
You are using an older version of Java
Your Java configuration is:
Vendor: Apple Computer, Inc.
Version: 1.5.0_06
Operating System: Mac OS X
OS Version: 10.4.7
Also, the animation on the page does not work. I do have java and javascript enabled in Safari and Camino. I also tried changing the order of java versions using the "Java Preferences.app" and it does not fix the problem with either order of "J2SE 5.0" or "J2SE 1.4.2" coming first.
So, some questions:
1. Is this the latest java for OSX?
2. Is there some other configuration step I have missed?
3. What is the best URL to try for testing web-page-java and javascripts?
4. What should I try next to get java working correctly in Safari and Camino?
Thanks
Paul
Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Paul, I think you have the latest. You can also test your Java and JavaScript here. As far as the "You are using an older version of Java" comment, that has always said that whenever I tested Java on that page you linked no matter what version so I wouldn't put too much stock in that.

(how) can I access Java APIs from web-page-hosted JavaScript?

Can I access Java APIs from a web-page via JavaScript if I have a JRE installed on the client machine? And if so, how?
Thanks in advance for your time and consideration.

John L. wrote:

But they soon removed that functionality. Can you guess why?
Because people were using the File/IO classes to easily steal or remove files on the harddrive, among other such niceties. You do NOT want to have such control from a web application. People will abuse it.

Controlling shockwave content (dcr) from a web page using javascript

Hi,
Is it possible to control shockwave content (dcr; object="application/x-director") from a web page using javascript?
I believe this is possible using 'FSCommand' in Flash...
I'd like to use HTML to do something like:
- html_object[1].go(10);
to send playback to frame 10.
Thanks.
Mark

Sean,
Thanks - this is exactly what I was looking for.
'Shockingly' difficult ( pun intended :-)
Someone really put in some effort on this.
Very creative solution, putting a flash ( swf ) component in a director project and communicating indirectly through the flash element.
Apparently, Javascript can communicate with the SWF file & the SWF file can communicate with the DCR file, but it is not possible to have Javascript communicate directly with the DCR. Too bad.
After looking over this example I think I'll rethink my project.
Thanks again.
Mark

Web page with javascript login shows the login in IE8 but not Firefox 9

The web page http://epgservices.sky.com/nevermiss/ loads properly in Internet Explorer 8 and shows login details but these don't show when loaded in Firefox 9.0.1
The login is generated by Javascript as far as I can see. Java is enabled and is not being blocked by AdBlock Plus because I've turned it off to see if it made any difference but the login for this website does not show

Hi cor-el,
Thank you for your reply. Earlier in my attempts to solve this problem and before contacting Firefox Help, I did start Firefox in Safe Mode after clearing the cache and the cookies from sky.com but this made no difference. The login was still not showing.
Today after trying the website on my laptop running Firefox 9.0.1 and finding the login was loading correctly I decided to uninstall Firefox but keeping my original extensions etc., and re-install Firefox from a freshly downloaded install file. It is now displaying the login correctly on that web page. I think it may have been caused by lefy-overs from previous upgrades of Firefox and the re-install cured the problem. It's amazing what problems a fresh install will solve!
Thank you for your help

Web page embedded Javascript has stopped working

Hi,
Since updating somewhere around v5 or so, some embedded Javascript no longer works, despite ticking the "Allow Javascript" box.
Was hoping that v9 would have fixed this problem, but no.
Thanks

Thanks cor-el, but not being computer literate I do not understand what you mean; neither do I understand any of the responses posted under http://kb.mozillazine.org/Resizing_oversize_window
What annoys me intensely is that there is an existing option to tick the box to a) "Enable JavaScript" and within that to b) "Move or resize existing windows".
What is the point of those tick boxes?
Do not mean to waste your or anyone else's time, but am ready to leave FF for just that simple problem. The way in which I open FF is such that I use an internal own-design web page with positions itself exactly where I want it on my large screen. This option has now been removed by FF; it works fine in IE.
Thanks to all for trying to sort this out, it is a FF problem that can surely be sorted?

Canvas on web page without javascript

Can anybody tell me that how i can construct canvas on web page without using javascript. Please guide me for the process i should follow

You cannot. You could do so in an applet though, but then you're not doing it "on the webpage".

W550s: slow web page loading - video problem?

My system:Thinkpad W550s with the 2880x1620 px Display.CPU: i7 - 5500URAM: 8 GBSystem: Win 7 64 bitDrives: system 256GB m.2 SSD This problem seems to be Lenovo video display, not the web browser or the internet connection: I see the same slugish page loading with Chrome and Firefox; I see the same problem with WiFi or wired ethernet. No other computers at my house have this problem. Specifically, I display Zillow in web browser. Choose a search option that displays hundreds of homes within the map. Zoom in or zoom out. Zillow redraws the entire map, and it is very slow on my W550s (sometimes 2 seconds or more). Other computers will refresh in a few blinks of the eye. I have not used the computer enough to say if I'm also seeing video display problems. There is a slow video on W550s topic in the forum, too.. I haven't yet tried some of the (unsuccssful) steps recommended there.

Occasionally I see it reach 100% when doing nothing but browsing! So what does that mean to you? The observed sluggishness seems very real, but I have a hard time quantifying it. My desktop system (older AMD CPU, 8 GB RAM, HD, not SSD) is definitely snappier. The graphics card on the desktop system is nothing special - some nVidia $50 card. Again, in the not quantifiable category, a friend recently brought an older Dell XPS laptop to my home that I had gifted to her. It is from 2007, runs Windows Vista (yikes!) and only has 4 GB RAM, yet it definitely felt faster with Firefox. It even seemed to load Firefox and IE quicker! This is really disheartening. I should load Adobe Lightroom on it and see how that runs.

OEM Cloud Control 12c web page layout problem

Hi,
I've installed OEM 12c and upgraded to 12.1.0.4.2.
When I opened the web page, the layout of web page had few problems as follows.
Figure 1: menu redirect to a new page rather popup in the same page
Figure 2: tables don't layout properly
Note that I've tried Google Chrome 41.0.2272.89 and Firefox 35.0.1.
Thanks.
JC

Hi,
The action plan provided by Courtney Llamas will fix the menu direct issue
Ref
OEM Console Appearance change when Accessibility Preference options are Selected (Doc ID 1918560.1)
In Continuation to this I would also recommend to always check the browser certification matrix for 12c to ensure all the console options work fine
Below is the list for 12.1.0.4.0 cloud control currently certified browsers
Apple Safari
3 Releases(6,5,4)
Google Chrome

Unable to load web pages

I have had my blackberry for about 3 months and until recently I have been able to load and view web pages without any problems.   Now, after I enter a webpage address and hit return, I get a blank screen with 'Loading..' on the bottom, and it stays like that without progessing.
I get this whether I am at home with a wireless homehub connection or elsewhere.
I think the problem started when I was trying to access windows live messenger, so I don't know if that is the cause. I may have tried enabling java for the website, and again i don't know if this contributed to the problem. I have restored the original settings to try and resolve the problem but this hasn''t made any difference.
My phone also displays the lettes UMA near the signal indicator. I don't know what this means and whether it can explain the problem.
I am not particularly IT literate, so if anybody thinks they know what the problem could be. and can explain it in a straightforward way that would be very helpful.

To obtain values from fields in a web page.

Hi everyone,
I am in the process of developing a web based application. I am able to
successfully convert my windows to web page documents.
I have sincerely followed the prescribed steps to be adopted in building
methods for validations and processes, so as to utilise them for my web
pages too.
But the problem that I am facing is to obtain values back from the web
page fields (user entered values) for performing validations.
Unfortunately the explanations provided in the Forte Web SDK Manual
for obtaining the values from the web page fields and load it on to the
source window through LoadParameters() method (a method in the window
converter class of HTMLWindow project) seems to be inadequate.
If some one can site the steps that Iam probably missing or some
examples, it will be of great help.
Thanks in advance.
Pamella.

Hi Dan,
Thanks for your assistance.
But as regards to my application, I have an existing forte application
which Iam trying to web enable.
To summarize my problem let me just consider the openning window (logon
screen) which I have converted to web page using WindowConverter Class
in the HTMLWindow project (obviously, it is my supplier project). The
functionality of this window class has to just accept the user name and
validate it. If the user name is valid then proceed further else
display an error message. I have a separate validation method for the
user name, which I can utilise to validate the user name typed by the
user on the web page, if Iam browsing or on the window, if Iam directly
running the application.
The widgets on the window are <UserId> and <ProceedButton> with
window attribute names as UserId and ProceedButton respectively.
Now my handle request method goes like this :
-- This method is the entry point from the Internet to my
-- application. It is automatically called when a request
-- from the Web arrives.
response : HTTPResponse = new;
-- Find the page name.
pageName : TextData = new;
pageName.SetValue(request.PageName);
-- Generate response pages.
if pageName.IsEqual('processquery',IgnoreCase=TRUE) then
-- Please note that I have not write any HTML to build my web page.
-- Instead Iam using the WindowConverter Class to convert my existing
-- windows on the fly to web pages during run time.
w : LogonWindow = new;
-- my logon window class
Converter : WindowConverter = new(sourceWindow=w);
Converter.AssignButton(sourceField = w.<ProceedButton>,type =
'submit');
loginURL : TextData = self.CGIURL.Clone(deep=TRUE);
loginURL.Concat('?serviceName=').concat('appweb');
loginURL.Concat('&pageName=PwdPage');
w.<ProceedButton>.HTMLLink = loginURL.value;
-- Proceed button is on my window to which
-- I have associated the above HTMLLink
-- This link does not submit the User Name typed by the
-- User browsing my web page, but this User Name has to
-- come as part of the request from the browser to perform the
-- validation, as Iam not sure about obtaining the User name
-- from the web page.
-- My problem is how to get this user name????????
html : HTHtml = new;
head : HTHead = new;
body : HTBody = new;
-- Give the page a title.
head.Add(HTTitle(Text='Application For The Web'));
html.Add(head);
form : HTForm = New();
body.Add(Converter.WindowToForm(Action=self.CGIURL,HTMethod='POST'));
html.Add(body);
response.AssignResponse(html.ConvertToString());
elseif pageName.IsEqual('PwdPage',IgnoreCase=TRUE) then
w : LogonWindow = new;
Conv : WindowConverter = new(sourceWindow=w);
button : PushButton = new();
button = Conv.LoadParameters(request,w.<UserId>);
-- This will fail because the 'Request' has no user Id.
-- Here, the explanation provided in the Forte Web SDK manual for
-- LoadParameters method (method from WindowConverter Class) seems to
-- be inadequate.
If w.UserId <> Nil And w.UserId.Value <> '' And w.UserId.LengthToEnd()
0 ThenIf SQLsSO.IsValidUserId(w.UserId) Then
-- Method to validate the user Name.
w1 : PasswordWindow = new;
Converter : WindowConverter = new(sourceWindow=w1);
Converter.AssignButton(sourceField = w1.<ProceedButton>,type =
'submit');
pwdURL : TextData = self.CGIURL.Clone(deep=TRUE);
pwdURL.Concat('?serviceName=').concat('appweb');
pwdURL.Concat('&pageName=MessagesPage');
-- and here I will have to get the password typed in by the User.
-- once again my same problem?????
w1.<ProceedButton>.HTMLLink = pwdURL.value;
html : HTHtml = new;
head : HTHead = new;
body : HTBody = new;
-- Give the page a title.
head.Add(HTTitle(Text='Application For The Web'));
html.Add(head);
form : HTForm = New();
body.Add(Converter.WindowToForm(Action=self.CGIURL,HTMethod='POST'));
html.Add(body);
response.AssignResponse(html.ConvertToString());
Else
-- Generate an exception for unknown page.
.............. and etc.
In your example, you had sighted about the 'Junktxt'. How does it comes
as part of the request from the browser and what is the reference
associated with the submit button?
If you need further clarifications, please write to me. Iam also still
working on it.
Thanks in advance,
Pamella.

Hi, Pamella --
It might be easier to help if you could be a little more specific about
what went wrong (ie, the problematic code snippet and the resulting error
message), or what exactly you were trying to do. In any event, it is very
easy in WebEnterprise to pass values up to Forte from web pages. You can
embed them in HTML "hidden" tags or they can accompany standard form
elements.
For instance, say you have the following HTML code ...
<form method="POST" action="$$FORTE.ExecURL">
<input type="hidden" name="ServiceName" value="TestService">
<input type="hidden" name="TemplateName" value="nextpage.htm">
<input type="hidden" name="hiddenParam" value="dog">
<div align="center"><center>
<p>
Type some junk here: <input type="text" name="junkTxt" size="20">
</p>
</center></div>
<div align="center"><center>
<p>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submitBtn">
<input type="reset" value="Reset" name="resetBtn">
</p>
</center></div>
</form>
In addition to what the user types into the text box (junkTxt), say you want
to pass "dog" up to Forte as a hidden parameter (hiddenParam) (hey, done't
ask me why!). You can retrieve these values up in Forte in the HandleTag
method of your scanner service by invoking "FindNameValue" on
request:HTTPRequest, ie
firstItem:TextData = request.FindNameValue('junkTxt');
secondItem:TextData = request.FindNameValue('hiddenParam');
firstItem now contains the value of "junkTxt" and secondItem contains
"dog." You can now do whatever you like with these guys, including putting
them in a ResultSet to be displayed on "nextpage.htm"
Hope this helps,

I'm using Snow Leopard and Firefox 6.0.2. I regularly use page setup, scale to get web pages to print on one page or at least fewer pages, and also to save as PDF. Not working now.

It has worked fine until recently. Now at less than 100%, the first page is reduced normally but pages 2 etc seem to be not reduced and pushed up and off the upper right of the page with header and page text completely missing on top and entire right of page. What happened? It is doing this on multiple web pages. No problem printing in any other program. Safari doesn't have scaling so I can't check that. It has been going on for several weeks and it is very irritating, and a waste of paper.

Usually, where there are issues like that, it has to do with incompatible programs that may be loaded at system startup. So, in System Preferences, look at your login ID, and login items, and see if any programs listed there should be updated to run with Snow Leopard. While in System Preferences, look at the bottom of the window where you may find some programs listed also. Check them too.
On your scanner, HP changed the way the scanners work under Snow Leopard. See this HP document: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01846935&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en &os=219&product=3739150&sw_lang=#N377 . Scroll down and click the scanning twistie.

On a web page when I open a pdf file it says download on the window and then suddenly starts opening multiple firefox blank pages I cant stop it except by using force quit - help

multiple blank firefox pages open one after the other, can't stop them. only solution is to use "force quit" I am on an iMac. Never had this until today. Has happened now 3 times! its scary/
== This happened ==
Just once or twice
== I clicked to open a pdf file on a web page (i've done this many times before on this web page with no problem) ==
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_6_3; en-us) AppleWebKit/531.22.7 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.5 Safari/531.22.7

See [[Firefox keeps opening many tabs or windows]]
You can have infinite tabs opening if you have selected Firefox as the application to handle a file if you get an ''Open with'' download window.
Firefox should not be selected as the application to handle a file and you have to remove the action that is associated with that file type.
You can delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/mimeTypes.rdf mimeTypes.rdf] in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] to reset all actions or set that action in Tools > Options > Applications to 'Always Ask'.

Do I need to pay $99/year per employee just to test web pages on IOS simulator?

Hi there, I run a small web development shop with 5 employees. We all bought Xcode through the app store and have been using the iOS simulator to test web pages and troubleshoot problems with our customers sites on iPhones and iPads.
I just upgraded to Mountain Lion, and it seems I lost my iOS simulator. I tried to install it through XCode again, and it says I need a developer account, which is $99/year.
We don't develop apps, we just use the simulator to view websites locally and on the web. Does this mean if I want all of my employees to be able to just simply use the simulator to view web pages, that I have to pay $500 per year to Apple? Am I missing something here? Why could we use the simulator's basic features for free under Snow Leopard, but not under Mountain Lion with the new version of the simulator?
Please tell me I'm an idiot and am just missing something about how to install it or configure it. Thanks so much for your help!

See, I am an idiot. It was right there. Somehow I think Alfred lost how to launch the simulator in the update to Mountain Lion. Since I couldn't launch it like I used to, I dug around until I found the Preferences > Downloads screen and had the option to install "iOS 5.0 Simulator" which is when I was prompted to get a developer license.
I never found the Xcode > Open Developer Tool method of locating it.
Anyway, thanks so much for your time!

Web pages loading slowly or not at all in all browsers

I don't know why I'm having this problem.... for the last few weeks now. 95% of the time, web pages (for me.... particularly in Ancestry.com and Ebay) load very slowly, or don't load at all. The other 5% of the time, it appears to work normally. I don't seem to have a problem with most other web pages. The problem occurs in all three of my browsers - Safari, Chrome and Firefox. I have dumped all my history and cookies. I have scanned my computer for malware/spyware with MacScan (which I just installed tonight). I am having the same problem on both my laptop (macbook pro) and my iMac. Again.... this problem started just a few weeks ago. I have tried everything I know to fix the problem, but haven't found a solution yet. It is very frustrating. Why would I only be having an issue with browsing on Ancestry and Ebay....and nowhere else? HELP!!

I'm having the same issue, except its not just web pages. It's apps, like facebook and getting emails. It's only a problem when I'm on my home wifi. If I shut the wifi off and use mobile data, everythings much faster.
I contacted Samsung and have a ticket open with them, but there's nothing else they can do for me. I've tried running in safe mode, and resetting to factory settings, but no luck. My next step is to contact Verizon, but I wanted to check here first. Funny thing is I did a google search, and others are complaining of the same issue. I'll update if I ever get it fixed!
